SKILL SET EXPLANATIONS
Most of the categories are self-explanatory (speed, size/frame) while others are not as obvious. The reason is while there is carryover in terms of category titles what each means is specific to the position being discussed. For example, athleticism is self-explanatory from a broad level, but for each position the traits will be different. For a running back, it will cover things like foot quickness, suddenness, hips, balance, etc. For a defensive end, it will include things like initial burst, lateral quickness, body control, etc. The specifics will be discussed under the various headers in the heart of the film evaluation itself.
