About this video
Dale Baskett's football speed development set for tight ends and linebackers tackles two positions that are hard to train for speed. A tight end is part offensive lineman and part wide receiver, with heavy blocking assignments on one snap and a route that demands quickness and acceleration on the next. A linebacker who lacks sound movement fundamentals may be playing at only half of his potential no matter how many position drills he runs. Coach Baskett's drills address both.
What you'll learn
- Tight ends: the movements a combination player needs for both heavy blocking and route running
- Tight end drills: Sprint Weave Lateral Sprint Weave, Curve Sprint Decel Sprint Weave, Separation Speed Control, Curve Velocity and Quick Weave Plant Control
- Linebackers: controlling the body in short space, accelerating to longer distances and changing direction with mechanically sound fundamentals
- Linebacker drills: Proper Shuffle Technique, Sprint to Shuffle, Lateral Shuffle, Multi Movement Combo and Linebacker Movement Combo
- How efficient movement lets linebackers read, react and pursue
- In-depth coaching points for each of the 10 drills
Who it's for
High school and college tight end coaches, linebacker coaches and speed staffs who want position-specific movement training rather than generic conditioning.

Frequently asked questions

Which coaches should buy it?
High school and college tight end and linebacker coaches, and strength and speed coaches who train those groups; the drills address the specific movements of each position rather than straight-line speed.

Why are tight ends singled out for their own speed session?
Because they are a combination of offensive lineman and wide receiver, which makes position-specific speed development a challenge; Coach Baskett's drills train the heavy-blocking movements and the route-running acceleration in the same progression.
