Flott's immediate challenge will be adding some bulk and strength to his tall, lean frame.Otherwise, Flott has enough qualities to work with, including speed and length and a relentle s competitive streak. Notes of Flott's game:Flott understands how to use his length to his advantage. Likes to play physical in coverage by getting his hands on receivers Dave Cash Jersey before they can get into their route. Provided LSU with versatility in 2020 by starting at the nickel position, allowing them to use it as a base package. Shows a solid knack for being an underneath zone dropper at the nickel. Better when playing routes on a lateral plane where he can show good short area quickne s. Competitive toughne s is off the charts, wants to play physical in all aspects of his game despite his lack of bulk. Reads blocks well in run support as a nickel, showing excellent football intelligence of Aaron Altherr Jersey knowing when to insert himself in the run game. Willing and efficient tackler that is willing to throw his body into tackles with no fear.
