Ford has had a catch in every game since he stepped on campus and now owns just about every receiving record at Virginia Tech. He does have very good size and arm length for the position. His frame, while a bit slender, has room to add bulk which could make him that much more imposing to defensive backs.
Ford possesses an intriguing blend of agility, speed and body control. Lining up all over the Virginia Tech offense, he is quick to enter his route and controls his gears well to stack cornerbacks, force them to commit their hips and gain a step at the stem.
