Overview
Dickerson is an athlete that has lined up everywhere from tight end to wide receiver to linebacker to fullback. He has never taken a position and taken it over although he has shown flashes everywhere he lined up. He will probably end up as a fullback/H back that is used in situations and can line up in a variety of positions. He is athletic and catches the ball well but is not going to threaten many secondaries down the middle. He has decent straight line speed as a fullback but lacks a big burst as he hits the hole. He is not apt to be the kind of fullback that you want to be the lead blocker in a power running game.
Analysis
Strengths
Dickerson’s a versatile talent with the size to be an effective NFL fullback or H-back. Is a fierce competitor who gives a consistently high level of effort. Is athletic to play some college wide receiver and figures to be capable of making some plays out of the backfield at the next level.
Weaknesses
Is not a refined prospect after playing three positions at Pitt. Did not consistently produce at a high level in college. Does not display the in-line blocking ability to be an every down tight end. Didn’t show the top end speed to challenge defenses up the seam.
