PLAYER ANALYSIS
One-year wonder who lacks desired height and length but who plays with some grit as a run blocker. Yelder appears to offer some early straight line speed, but he may be too tight in his lower half to be able to shake coverage underneath with separation out of his route breaks. He flashes potential as a run blocker but lacks consistency of technique from game to game. Yelder doesn't stand out in any one phase, but it stands to reason that he should continue to improve in all areas with more experience and coaching.
