WR Rocker Step Drill - The rocker step is an everyday drill used by wide receivers to manipulate a defensive back's body positioning and movement. - This technique is designed to make a defender lean or stop their feet by simulating a break while the receiver is actually running at full speed. - Coaches should emphasize body control and movement manipulation, comparing the technique to a crossover move used by a basketball player. - Effective execution requires the receiver to move their shoulders and maintain total control over their body while selling a vertical route. - The drill begins with receivers coming off the line of scrimmage, running vertically for five yards while staying under control. - After mastering the initial vertical movement, the drill graduates to include the actual break in a specific direction to simulate game-speed routes of ten or more yards.

Swipe the Ankles Drill - The drill begins on a whistle, where coaches slowly drag bags away to simulate a runner. - Defenders start the drill on all fours and crawl toward the moving bags. - The primary goal of the drill is to simulate a defender's last line of defense by swiping the runner's ankle to bring them down. - Players are instructed to cup the ankle during the tackle attempt rather than using a closed fist or an open hand. - The technique emphasizes having something solid to grab onto as the runner moves away. - This specific movement is designed to train defenders on how to effectively make a tackle when they are trailing a play.

O-Line Covered Step Drill - This offensive line drill utilizes the lines on a turf field or painted boxes to simulate old-school board drills. - To maximize individual time, coaches can line up multiple players along every five-yard line to get a high volume of repetitions in a short period. - The first movement, or the power step, is a short step used to transfer weight from the backside big toe to the lead leg to create power. - On the coach's second command, players execute the drive step, which provides the actual movement and force of the block. - Players must ensure their second step lands in front of their first step, driving that foot up the crotch of the defender and upfield. - While players in the drill may fall forward without resistance, in a game scenario, this momentum is used to strike the defender in a proper fit.

WR Secondary Release Drill - Release drills should be treated as everyday drills that are performed at least twice a week with wide receivers and defensive backs. - Coaches should set up drills in the boundary area to simulate a lack of space, using a cone placed approximately six yards downfield. - The primary objective of any release is to be both fast and physical when getting off the line of scrimmage. - Wide receivers must wait to make their move until they have closed the cushion and are right on the defensive back's toes. - Executing a move too early allows the defender time and ground to recover, even if they initially lean or rock in the wrong direction. - After the release, receivers must focus on getting their chest out of the way, using physical hand techniques to stack the defender and return to their line as quickly as possible.

LB Tackle In Space Drill - The drill utilizes a reverse L-shaped setup with cones to force linebackers to work around obstacles while approaching a ball carrier in space. - A critical component of the drill is for the linebacker to aggressively close the distance between themselves and the offensive player before making contact. - Coaches should emphasize that elite linebackers must keep their hips and shoulders square upon contact to maintain leverage and power. - Players should avoid crossing their feet or "sitting in a chair" when approaching the tackle; instead, they must break down efficiently and maintain active feet through the strike. - The drill concludes by mimicking speed tackling techniques, where the defender focuses on getting to the hip and rolling through the finish. - This specific tackling progression is integrated into the regular season routine, with live tackling drills performed at least once a week to maintain sharp fundamentals.

LB Search & Destroy Drill - The search and destroy drill is highly effective for linebackers when actions inside the box are cloudy or unclear. - Coaches can choose to have players either shuffle or use a crossover step to move from their starting point to the cone. - A primary emphasis of the drill is to ensure the linebacker keeps their shoulders, hips, and feet square once they reach the cone. - Linebackers must avoid crossing over their feet when making contact with the ball carrier. - The drill should be executed at a thud tempo during the teaching phase so both the linebacker and the ball carrier can feel the movement, with the ball carrier waiting to make a decision until the linebacker reaches the cone. - The drill is excellent for young linebackers to learn how to match the path of the running back and track where he is going, rather than just running blindly through gaps.

O-Line Snag Drill - The snag drill requires offensive linemen, defenders with dummies, and a partner who grabs and snags the offensive lineman's ankle. - Snagging the ankle reinforces the need for the offensive lineman to drive their knee and leg forward with power when taking a step. - Coaches should emphasize the importance of the second step and ensure players are driving it directly up the crotch of the defender. - Effective movement during the drill involves maintaining low pad level, achieving a strong thumb lift with the inside arm, and driving up the board. - Ankle flexibility is critical and is defined as having all cleats in the ground while being able to position the kneecap directly over the toe. - Offensive linemen must avoid taking a first step that is too large, as it prevents proper knee-over-toe positioning; instead, they should take a short step, often around six inches.
