UPDATED 2014 Trifecta Draft Class- Need Scouting Reports from the Community

[vtcrb]

I am making a Separate thread for the 2014 Draft Class because I am going to NEED Feedback from the Community in the Form of Scouting Reports. This class has guys I am not as familiar with. I DONT mind doing the research, but it will take ALOT more time if I do it all myself. If you know a Player's game, pleas list 5 Strengths and 5 Weakness in the Thread. Also some of the younger guys I assigned Colleges to because they are still in HS. Since 2k will ONLY let you use 3 Draft Classes before making you use Generic Version I included some younger guys.

No prob, thanks for all the things you do! I coached Markel in HS, so I felt compelled to leave a report for him.

After the 3rd season for some reason when you try to Load a Draft Class in Association Mode, it wont let you and forces you to use Generic Class.

Thank You for the Feedback. Hopefully I will get some type of report on each Player in this Class. Jackson hasnt lived up to his recruiting hype YET, but I believe he will flourish the next 2 years.

You are correct on the leaping. I should have clarified, his movements are similar as he has emulated him forever (He's his favorite player.)
