David Molk – C – Michigan

Molk was solid in this game. He didn’t make many mistakes and was doing a good job of run blocking throughout the night. He did a really good job of isolating his defender away from the play and creating a running lane. He was doing this consistently throughout the game. I also liked that he played with really good leverage in short yardage situations. On 3 occasions when Michigan’s offense needed to pick up a yard for the 1st down or to score, Molk had very good blocks. At the goal line he was able to take out 2 defenders and clear the way for the TD. He wasn’t tested much in pass protection although he showed awareness to pick up blitzing players. He has a good anchor and rushers we’re stopped in their tracks once he planted that back leg. There was a couple of times where he was left blocking no one, which is never good to see. He looked very mobile when he was asked to pull on one play but he didn’t connect with anyone at the 2nd level. Overall a solid game and I was impressed with him.

Kevin Koger – TE – Michigan

I didn’t see much of Koger as a blocker so this is mainly only notes of him as a receiver. He’s definitely going to have trouble creating any separation in the NFL. He’s slow off the line and lacks burst and straight line speed. He did make one very nice catch as he went up to snag the high pass and then took a shot but managed to hold on. I’ll watch more him blocking next time.

Mike Martin – DT – Michigan

Mike Martin was very quiet in this game and I was a bit disappointed. Although, I must note that Martin was double teamed heavily by Western Michigan. He did get penetration a few times but was unable to make any plays in the back field. He played with good leverage for the most part but he was inconsistent there. He had a tough time getting off blocks although he did try a swim and rip move a couple of times with limited success.

Jordan White – WR – Western Michigan

Jordan White was once again Mr. Dependable for the Broncos on offense. White finished the game with 12 catches despite the game being called late in the 3rd quarter. He’s not much of a burner and you can see he lacks that top speed. He’ll probably run in the 4.5-4.6 range at the combine. He did show some suddenness when getting off the line of scrimmage which is good to see. He plays much bigger than his listed size at 6’0 215. After the catch he’s more of a power guy and would prefer to try to run defensive backs over or give them a mean stiff arm as opposed to dancing around. I don’t understand why he’s the teams punt returner as he is an awful fit for that job. Now let’s talk about his best attribute, his hands. Despite being targeted heavily by Alex Carder, White did not drop a single pass. He routinely caught the ball away from his body (he did let a couple into his pads though) and showed off his strong hands on a nice leaping grab over a Michigan defender. People will harp on him because of his poor 40 but this guy can flat out catch the football. He actually reminds me a lot of Jason Avant who has developed into a fine slot receiver for the Eagles.

Doug Wiggins – FS – Western Michigan

Wiggins play was rather poor in this game and I don’t think there is much of a chance he gets drafted. He got sucked in numerous times on play action and allowed receivers to get in behind him. He’s not a great tackler as he prefers to dive in uncontrollably rather than breaking down and making a good hit. On top of that he has some off the field concerns surrounding him so he’s not much of a prospect.
