Nebraska’s position-switch WR prospect still learning the craft
Willie Amos was a Nebraska defensive back who was moved to wide receiver in spring 2004, so his biggest differentiator is raw upside rather than proven production at the position. Reports from the time emphasize that he was being force-fed the basics of route running, blocking, timing, and technique, which suggests a developmental athlete with size and physical tools but a steep learning curve. If you want a fit who may grow into a versatile, high-ceiling receiver with defensive-back toughness, he’s intriguing; if you need an immediate polished pass-catcher, he was a project rather than a finished product.[1][4]
