Draw/Sprint Draw

Coach,

We implemented a Lead Draw last season that was one of our most productive rushing plays. We started off blocking it by flashing the OLine in a pass set, then moving to block like an Iso. After about 2 weeks into the season, I told our OLine coach to block it just like Iso, without the OLine trying to sell pass. It worked like a charm. It's great because you are often getting your FB on the ILB after he has already dropped into his zone. Even if he reads and comes up, you're still meeting him much further from the LOS than normal. We sold it off of a 3-step drop look out of both the I formation and from split backs. It's also a great play if your FB is more of a ballcarrier than a blocker...it really helps him get on that block.

We also ran a Sprint Draw, but not this past season. Pretty much the same concept, except now your attacking the first man at or beyond the C-gap with your FB and running inside with your TB. We would only typically run this out of the I or offset I.

Easy as pie to install, hard to defend.
