Background

Shawn Willis attended Flatonia High School in Flatonia, Texas where he played football, basketball, and ran track. After four years on the Flatonia football team, Willis went on to play at Oklahoma State where he sat out the 2001 season as a redshirt. The following year he saw action in three games as a defensive end recording 1 tackle on the season. He started 7 games at fullback as a sophomore, carrying the ball 31 times for 149 yards and a career high 5 touchdowns. He caught 9 passes for 64 yards on the year as well. As a junior he had career highs in attempts (39), yards (175), and scored 4 rushing touchdowns. He added 4 receptions for 39 yards. He finished his career with 17 carries for 95 yards for the Cowboys as a senior.


Analysis

Shawn Willis has a good deal of experience having started at fullback the past three seasons with the Oklahoma State Cowboys. He has an excellent combination of size and strength for a fullback. He is a dominating lead blocker who has paved the way for backs such as Tatum Bell and Vernand Morency in the past. He is a tough inside runner who has the strength to break tackles and gain additional yardage. He lacks great speed and isn’t very elusive in the open field. You won’t see him break any long runs. He wasn’t used much as a receiver out of the backfield at Oklahoma State, with 11 career receptions and none as a senior. He did prove to be reliable on the rare occasion a pass did come his way. Shawn Willis will have to go to a team that is looking for strictly a lead blocker and short yardage back. He has a chance to be a late round pick or sign as an undrafted free agent.
