It's always hard to judge offensive linemen who play in a zone blocking scheme. Georgia Tech's Omoregie Uzzi was a first-team All-ACC and submitted paperwork to the NFL Draft advisory board. In Tech's offense, it's nearly impossible to judge Uzzi's pass blocking skills. As a run blocker, he's quick off the line and knows how to properly use his hands.
Another Yellow Jackets player who submitted paperwork was wide receiver Stephen Hill. He certainly looks the part of a No. 1 wide receiver. He's got nice size at a listed 6-foot-5 and 206 pounds and is an incredible leaper. He just doesn't have the production to give a fair assessment. His route running consists mostly of up routes and fades. He has 26 receptions this season for 785 yards and 4 touchdowns.
