Nick Bellore
School: Central Michigan
Position: ILB
Bio: Four-year starter awarded all-Conference honors since his sophomore season. Had 90/7/1 as a senior and 132/13/3 with 2 interceptions as a junior. Posted a career-best 148 tackles as a sophomore.
Positive: Tough, run-defending two-down linebacker with minimal upside. Fierce competitor who remains disciplined with assignments, quickly diagnoses the action, and flies around the football. Collapses outside to defend the run, shows a good head for the ball, and wraps up as a tackler. Fires up the field and plays with explosiveness.
Negative: Not a rangy linebacker and doesn't cover a lot of area on the field. Comes off a disappointing senior season after struggling with injury.
Analysis: Expectations were high for Bellore, a productive and durable player since his freshman season, but the senior didn't live up to the hype. He projects as a solid inside linebacker and is best as a two-down defender who can play special teams in the NFL.
