Every year the NFL Draft reminds us of the talent that come out of the sunshine state. This year Florida has some of the best defensive lineman they have ever produced. Four of the top ten players in Florida this year are on the defensive line. If games are won and lost in the trenches then this is the year to be living in the state of Florida if  you are a college recruiter. We look forward to breaking down the sunshine state heading into another year of high school football. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>Marvin\nJones Jr: American Heritage Plantation: DE: 6\u20194-225<\/strong>: College coaches are\nlooking for top end pass rushers. There is not a better one in the country then\nJones. He comes off the ball like a mad man. His initial burst off the ball\nallows him to blow by offensive tackles. He is very good at putting pressure on\nthe quarterback. <\/li><li><strong>Shemar\nStewart: Monsignor Pace: DE: 6\u20195-260:<\/strong> If Jones is 1A, Stewart is 1B. He has\ngreat size. His burst off the ball is elite. When you watch him in person you\ncome away impressed with his ability to pursuit on the back side. He will not\nstop until the ball carrier is hunted down. He has the size to hold the edge on\nrun plays. His versatility allows you to line him up anywhere on the field. <\/li><li><strong>Sam McCall: Lake Gibson: DB\/Ath.: 6\u20191-200\n(Committed to FSU):<\/strong> McCall is one of the top athletes in the country. He is\nbeing recruited as both a receiver and defensive back. McCall has very good\ntechnique. You will see him open up and run with receivers. He does not get\nturned around easily. He also has very good ball skills. You will see him jump routes\nand end up in the end-zone. He is also very physical. When McCall hits a\nreceiver they go backwards. <\/li><li><strong>Gabriel\nBrownlow-Dindy: Lakeland: DT: 6\u20193-275:<\/strong> Dindy is one of the best defensive\ntackles in the country. He has very good size and length. He can clog up the\nmiddle of the field. He is very effective at getting off the ball quickly. His\nstrength allows him to dominate the line of scrimmage. Here is a kid who plays\nlike a grown man on the football field. <\/li><li><strong>Tyler\nBooker: IMG Academy: OT: 6\u20195-325:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto Alabama):<\/strong> Booker will show his athletic ability when you see him playing\nfullback on some plays. He has great feet. He moves very well laterally. You\nwill see he can handle elite level pass rusher. His hands allow him to dictate\nwhere a defender is going to go. He over powers the opposition with his\nstrength. His technique is pretty good. He does have a tendency to bend over\nand reach a defender at times. This is something we feel that Booker needs to\nwork on. <\/li><li><strong>Wesley\nBissainthe: Miami Central: LB: 6\u20191-200:<\/strong> These days you need linebackers who\nare more like bigger safeties. Wesley fits that criteria. He has the size to\nplay inside the box. His ability to cover backs and receivers in space is\nelite. He is also very good against the run. You will see him play like an old\nschool linebacker and attack downhill. Wesley is one of the best linebackers to\ncome out of South Florida in the past ten years.&nbsp; <\/li><li><strong>Nyjalik\nKelly: Dillard: DE: 6\u20194-245<\/strong>: No player in Florida has seen a bigger jump in\ntheir stock then Kelly. He has great burst off the ball. His ability to get up\nthe field and put the pressure on the quarterback is quite impressive. He plays\nwith quickness off the edge. He has the size and length to set the edge on run\nplays. He is versatile enough to move him inside on pass rush downs and get\npressure from the inside. Kelly has yet to reach his potential but when he does\nyou are looking at an NFL prospect. <\/li><li><strong>Jaleel\nSkinner: IMG Academy: WR\/TE:<\/strong> Skinner moves into the sunshine state and\nbecomes one of the premier athletes in the 2022 class. He has great size. His\nability to stretch the field and get behind defenders is quite impressive. He\nis the new breed of tight end in college football that can line up wide as a\nreceiver or end up moving inside to inline block off the edge. He is a complete\nplayer who just made an already good IMG team even better: <\/li><li><strong>Kamari\nWilson: IMG Academy: S: &nbsp;6\u20191-190:<\/strong>\nWilson has the size and range to play free safety in college. He has a great\nfeel for the game of football. You will see him jump routes and take it back\nfor a touchdown. You can line him up and let him play the run. He has very good\nchange of direction skills. Wilson gives you a player with a nice combination\nof size and speed on the back end. <\/li><li><strong>Jaheim\nSingletary: Robert E. Lee: CB: 6\u20191-170: <\/strong>You want size and length in\nsecondary and that is what Jaheim will give you. He also runs very well. We\nlike that Jaheim is versatile enough to play corner or safety in college. He\nhas very good coverage skills. He has the type of range that if you are late\nthrowing the ball across the middle of the field, Jaheim will make you pay. You\nwill see him on offense and Singletary has very good hands. He also has great\nfootball instincts<\/li><li><strong>AJ Duffy:\nIMG Academy: QB: 6\u20192-205 (Committed to FSU): Duffy<\/strong> is one of the premier\nquarterbacks in the country. He transfers to IMG where we expect him to have a\nmonster senior season. He has a great arm. He anticipates very well. Duffy\nknows how to throw a receiver open. He does a very good job of leading his\nreceivers. Duffy is a good enough athlete to also beat you with his legs.<\/li><li><strong>Kenyatta\nJackson: Chaminade: DE: 6\u20194-230:<\/strong>&nbsp;\nJackson has all the physical attributes you want in a defensive end prospect.\nHe has great size and speed off the edge. His size and length allow him to get\noff blocks and still make plays. He does not get broken down when one on one\nwith an offensive player. He does a very good job of containing. Jackson is\nvery good against the run. Most years he would be the number one defensive end\nin Florida. He just happens to be going against 3 elite other players this year\nfor the top spot. <\/li><li><strong>Daylen\nEverette: IMG Academy: CB-6\u20190-180:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto Clemson):<\/strong> His technique is very good. You are looking at an elite level\ncover corner. You can put him on an island and Daylan will shut down his size\nof the field. He does a very good job of not turning his head around until the\nmoment is right. He understands the game of football. His footwork is a big\nreason why Daylen is so damn good at corner. It is hard for receivers to lose\nhim.<\/li><li><strong>Julian\nArmella: Saint Thomas Aquinas: OT\/OG-6\u20195-290:<\/strong> As a freshman most scouts\nfelt Armella would be the top tackle in Florida. Now they are mixed in their\nfeelings about how good this kid is. He comes from a football family. Armella\nhas a bit of a mean streak in him. He will come off the ball and look for\nsomeone to hit. He is versatile enough to play tackle, guard or center in\ncollege. He has good footwork. His technique continues to improve all the time.\nWe expect him to take his game to another level this fall and possibly end up a\ntop ten prospect in Florida. <\/li><li><strong>Keon\nSabb: IMG Academy: S: 6\u20192-200:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto Clemson) <\/strong>Sabb comes from New Jersey and was one of the best prospects in\nthat state. He now moves down to IMG where the competition will improve. He is\na very good safety but it would not surprise us to see him move to linebacker\nin college. His strength is playing the run. He can drop back into coverage but\nwe would rather see him in the box and playing closer to the line of scrimmage.\n<\/li><li><strong>Jacoby\nSpells: American Heritage Plantation: CB-6\u20190-170<\/strong>: <strong>(Committed to West Virginia<\/strong>): Spells was a receiver who converted\nto defensive back. He has great hands so it was a bit surprising he moved to\ncorner. The move may end up paying off as Spells is one of the top rated\ncorners in Florida this year. He is very aggressive. You will see Spells come up\nand hit a receiver. He is also very instinctive. <\/li><li><strong>Demario\nTolan: Dr. Phillips: LB-6\u20193-200<\/strong>: <strong>(Committed\nto LSU<\/strong>): Tolan is a prospect that has blown up the past few years. He is a\nvery good athlete who is going to end up at linebacker in college. We have had\nthe opportunity to watch him run and Tolan is impressive. He is athletic enough\nto drop back into coverage. He can also come up and play the run. Tolan is a\nprospect that will need to keep working hard and continue to develop\nphysically. <\/li><li><strong>Earl\nLittle: American Heritage Plantation: CB: 6\u20190-170<\/strong>: Little has great\ntechnique. He is very well coached and comes from a football family. We like\nhow aggressive Earl is one the football field. He has good instincts. His\nability to play corner or safety at the next level makes him a priority for\nmany college coaches. He can shut down an opposing team\u2019s best receiver. <\/li><li><strong>Kaytron\nAllen: IMG Academy: RB: 6\u20190-200: (Committed to Penn State): <\/strong>&nbsp;Allen is the top rated back in Florida this\nyear. He has very good feet. You watch him and Allen is very patient for a running\nback. He has good vision. Once he sees an opening, Allen will exploit it. He is\nvery subtle and then bam. He has very good top end speed and can pull away from\ndefenders. He is also going to be a threat out of the backfield as a receiver.<\/li><li><strong>Dominick\nJames: IMG Academy: DT: 6\u20193-270<\/strong>: &nbsp;BIG. Kid has some nice size to him for an\ninterior defensive lineman. He does a good job of using his hands. His strength\nis stopping the run. He is very strong and is tough to move off the ball. He\njust engulfs running backs. He gives you some pass rush from the middle of the\nline of scrimmage but that is not the strength of his game. <\/li><li><strong>Azareyeh Thomas: Niceville: S-6\u20193-175: <\/strong>Thomas\nis a prospect that can make an impact on offense or defense. He is a big,\nphysical well put together prospect. He looks like a big time player when you\nturn on the film. He has good coverage skills for a defensive back. He moves\nextremely well for a big athlete. Here is a kid that has a brother who starts\nat Georgia Tech and is probably better then him at this time.<\/li><li><strong>Drew\nShelton: IMG Academy: OT: 6\u20195-290: (Committed to Penn State):<\/strong> Shelton has\nplayed both offense and defense. Shelton has great feet. He does a very good\njob of getting in space and locking onto a linebacker. What we like is how Shelton\ngets on a defender and will just drive them off the ball. He is a finisher. He\nhas a bit of a mean streak to his game. Shelton is a very good run blocker. You\nwatch him get into space and it is not often that we see guys like him move\nlike this. <\/li><li><strong>Jihaad\nCampbell: IMG Academy: DE: 6\u20194-220:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto Clemson):<\/strong> Campbell was one of the top prospects in NJ before moving down\nto Bradenton. He is another one of those hybrid defensive end\/linebackers that\nschools are looking for. He can rush the passer with his hand on or off the\nground. He is athletic enough to play in space and act as an outside\nlinebacker. His ability to chase down backs and receivers in space is what\nattracts the college coaches. You are looking at a prospect that if he puts it\nall together could end up one of the better players in this year\u2019s class. <\/li><li><strong>Terrance\nGibbs: Winter Park: RB: 6\u20190-200:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto UF): <\/strong>Gibbs may be the best home grown back in the state of Florida this\nyear. Gibbs gives you a back with a great combination of size and speed. He has\nthe ability to get to the edge and outrun the defense. He is also very\neffective in the passing game. You are looking at a back that can help out both\nrunning and catching the football. His speed and quickness allow him to make\nplays that other backs his size can\u2019t. He also will run over a defender if they\nget in his way. <\/li><li><strong>CJ\nHawkins: Berekley Prep: TE-6\u20197-220: (Committed to Florida):<\/strong> &nbsp;Hawkins is a former basketball player who\nturned to football. He has great size. When he develops you are looking at a\npotential NFL prospect. He does a very good job of high pointing the football.\nHe uses his size well. He is very effective after the catch. Hawkins runs like\na skilled player. CJ has not even come close to reaching his potential. <\/li><li><strong>Francois\nNolton: Miami Edison: DE: 6\u20194-225 (Committed to UF): <\/strong>Nolton is a prospect\nwe have known for a few years. He was first going to University of Miami camps\nand that is where he got to first showcase his talents. He has size, speed and\nathletic ability. His length allows him to fend off offensive lineman. He has a\nnice burst off the ball. Nolton has some nice pass rush moves. He can get off\nthe ball and get into the backfield before a lineman can get a hand on him. He\nhas to get better at the point of attack. <\/li><li><strong>Jack\nPedersen: IMG Academy: TE-6\u20194-245 (Committed to UCLA): Pedersen<\/strong> is one of\nthe best tight ends in the country. He will get the chance to shine this year\nat IMG. He will stretch out and try and attack the football. If the ball is\nthrown his way, Jack will come down with the ball. You can line him up off the\nball, in the slot or out of the backfield and Jack will be a major problem for\nopposing defenses. He has also shown the ability to block.&nbsp; <\/li><li><strong>Markeith\nWilliams: Orlando Evans: DB: 6\u20193-180: (Committed to Miami): <\/strong>&nbsp;Williams has two traits you want in a\ndefensive back, size and length. He does need to put some weight on his frame.\nHe is a thin kid who is going to get outmuscled in college without putting on\nsome weight. He needs to get stronger. What we do like is Williams can play\nsafety or cornerback. <\/li><li><strong>AJ\nJohnson-Cardinal Newman: WR: 6\u20192-200: <\/strong>Johnson transfers in from Louisiana.\nHe will be one of the top receivers in the state of Florida now. He gives you a\nreceiver with a nice blend of size and speed. Look for him to make plays in the\npassing game. He will play at a school that is starting to bring in some nice\nprospects. <\/li><li><strong>Mason\nTaylor: Saint Thomas Aquinas: TE\/DE: 6\u20194-250:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed to LSU):<\/strong> Physically there is not a prospect who made a\nbigger jump physically from the last time we saw him. Taylor plays tight end\nbut we project him as a defensive end in college. He has the pedigree and with\nhis physical attributes Taylor is going to see a ton of movement in his stock.\nHe moves very well for a big athlete. <\/li><li><strong>Aaron\nHester: Fletcher: DE\/OLB: 6\u20193-220(Committed to Florida State):<\/strong> Hester is\ngoing to end up a pass rusher in college. He has good size to be an outside\nbacker in college. His ability to get up the field and put pressure on the\nquarterback is his strength. He needs to get bigger and stronger to play\ndefensive end in college.<\/li><li><strong>Greg\nGaines: Tampa Bay Tech: WR: 6\u20192-175: (Committed to Iowa State): <\/strong>&nbsp;Gaines is probably the best receiver in Florida\nthis year. He has size and speed. He is also well put together for a receiver.\nHe will easily be up over 200 pounds. What we like is Gaines goes up for the\nfootball. He is very aggressive for a football player. He does a very good at\nhigh pointing the football. <\/li><li><strong>Leyton\nNelson: Orlando Boone: OT: 6\u20196-270<\/strong>: <strong>(Committed\nto UCF):<\/strong> Nelson is one of the better athletes to play tackle this year. He\nmoves very well for a big guy. His frame will allow him to carry more weight.\nIf he can get to 300 pounds and keep his athletic ability you are looking at an\nAll-Conference type player. He is very good in pass pro. His ability to come\noff the ball and drive his defender backwards is also impressive.<\/li><li><strong>Aliou\nBah: IMG Academy: OT: 6\u20196-325 (Committed to FSU<\/strong>):&nbsp; Bah this off-season worked hard, got his body\nin much better shape. He trimmed about 30-40 pounds of his frame and this\nallowed him to become much better at moving laterally. He has very good\nstrength. He is going to try and over power the guy in front of him. Bah moves\nwell enough to play right tackle but most likely will play guard in college. He\ndoes give you some length either on the outside or in. <\/li><li><strong>Richard\nThomas: American Heritage Plantation: DE: 6\u20192-255 (Committed to Indiana): <\/strong>Richard\nhas been on the radar since his freshman season. We figured he would eventually\ngrow into a defensive tackle. He will end up a defensive end in college. He can\ngain enough weight to move inside on passing downs. His ability to hold the\nedge and help in run support is the strength of his game. He is a very good\nplayer who should have a productive college career. <\/li><li><strong>Tony\nLivingston: Carroll wood Day: OT: 6\u20196-260 (Committed to Florida):<\/strong>\nLivingston is a very good athlete. He has played tight end, defensive end but\nwe project him as an offensive tackle. He is a big kid who moves very well. He\nhas very good length. You take these types of players all the time and then\ndevelop them. If Tony takes to the tackle position you are looking at a\npotential 2-3 year starter and an NFL prospect down the road. <\/li><li><strong>Jayden\nGibson: West Orange: WR: 6\u20196-190:<\/strong> Gibson is a big, long receiver. He has\ngreat size. He is going to be a major threat inside the red-zone. Get him one\non one with a smaller receiver and throw the ball up and let Gibson catch it.\nHe does not have great speed. His size does allow him to get separation from\ndefensive backs. <\/li><li><strong>Daniel\nLyons: Homestead: DT: 6\u20194-270: (Committed to FSU):<\/strong> Lyons is a force on the\ninside. He is very good at pushing the pocket backwards. Lyons is very\neffective at getting into the backfield. Lyons is quick off the ball. He is\nalso very strong at the point of attack. He is not the type of player you can\njust move off the ball. What you like is Lyons is athletic enough to make plays\non the edge.<\/li><li><strong>Trevell\nMullen: Coconut Creek: CB: 5\u201911-150: (Committed to Indiana):<\/strong> Mullen comes\nfrom a family that has produced some very talented defensive backs. Trevell is\nnext in line and could end up the best of them all. He has very good coverage\nskills. He can lock down half of the field. He comes up and challenges every\nreceiver that Mullen goes against. He is also very physical and will help out\nin the run game. <\/li><li><strong>Myles Rowser:\nIMG Academy: DB-6\u20191-180:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto Arkansas):<\/strong> Rowser moves to IMG this season. He reacts very well to the\nball when it is in the air. He will watch a quarterbacks eyes and attack the\nball. He does need to work on his tackling. He takes angles on the football\nfield that Myles will not get away with in college. <\/li><li><strong>Jaylin\nMarshall: Miami Central: DB-6\u20193-190 (Committed to Arizona State): <\/strong>Marshall\nis a prospect that will play safety in high school but may move to linebacker\nin college. He is another versatile athlete that can play multiple positions in\ncollege. He has the size and range to cover a tight end. He has the speed and\nquickness to play against receivers or backs in space<\/li><li><strong>Trent\nRamsey: East Lake-OT: 6\u20195-275:<\/strong> Ramsey is not one of the elite tackles. He\nmay not be the most athletic lineman on the board. What he does bring is a\ntackle with very good technique. You will see him not allow defenders to cross\nhis face. He has quick feet enough feet to handle pass rushers. Trent is\nversatile enough to play multiple positions on the offensive line. <\/li><li><strong>Tre\nDonaldson: Florida High School: S: 6\u20192-200<\/strong>: Donaldson is one of the better\ndefensive backs in the panhandle. He brings some size to the secondary. He is\nan in the box safety. His strength is his physicality and ability to play the\nrun. He can drop back into coverage and does have some range. He is best when\nthe ball is in front of him. When Donaldson has to turn his back and run then\nhe is not as effective. It would not surprise us to see him play linebacker in\nsome schemes. <\/li><li><strong>Zane Durant: Lake Nona: DE: 6\u20191-250:\n(Committed to Penn State): <\/strong>Durant is a versatile defensive lineman that can\nline up outside on run downs and move inside on passing downs. He has a quick\nfirst step off the ball. He is an athletic kid who can run by offensive\nlineman. He does a very good job of beating his guy off the ball and getting\ninto the backfield. If he can get up 290-300 pounds you are looking at an\ninterior lineman that has elite level quickness playing the defensive tackle\nspot.<\/li><li><strong>Jacorey\nThomas: &nbsp;Orlando Boone: Ath: 6\u20191-180:<\/strong>\n<strong>(Committed to Georgia):<\/strong> Boone is the\nultimate Swiss army knife. He can do so many things on a football field. He can\nplay receiver, running back, linebacker or even safety. His versatility is a\nbig reason why so many colleges are after him. He is the type of player you\nsign and worry where to put him once on campus. <\/li><li><strong>Jordan\nPhillips: Ocoee: DT: 6\u20193-290 (Committed to Tennessee):<\/strong> Phillips is a player\nwho has flown under the radar. He has a quick first step off the ball. He can\nprovide a pass rush from the middle of the line of scrimmage. He can split and\ndouble team and shoot the gaps well. We like his ability to stuff the run. He\nuses his hands very well.<\/li><li><strong>Chris\nGreaves: Bishop Verot: Ath: 6\u20192-170: (Committed to Miami): If<\/strong> there is an\nunderrated prospect in this year\u2019s class, Greaves is it. He has very good size\nand length to play in the secondary. He is also not one that is going to shy\naway from contact. Chris is very physical for a defensive back. He can play\npress coverage, off coverage or just move inside to safety and play on the\nhash. His range allows him to be very versatile on the back end. He is someone\nthat we feel will end up outliving his ranking. It would not surprise us to see\nhim have a great college career. <\/li><li><strong>Mario\nEugenio: Gaither: DE: 6\u20193-230: (Committed to Michigan):<\/strong> Feel like Eugenio\nis one of the most underrated players in the state of Florida. He can come off\nthe edge like someone shot out of cannon. He has a very quick first step and is\ndifficult for most offensive tackles to handle. He plays with good balance. You\nwill see him stay low and make it difficult for tackles to get a hand on him.\nLook for Mario to end up a very productive player at the next level. He could\nend up having a better career then most of the guys ranked ahead of him. <\/li><li><strong>Brandon\nCleveland: Carrollwood Day: DT: 6\u20193-270: (Committed to NC State):<\/strong> Cleveland\nhas some athletic ability. On his first clip on his highlight film you see him\ndeflect and ball and then pick it off. He can come off the edge and rush the\npasser. He is versatile enough to play defensive end or tackle in college. He\nactually uses his hands very well. We like how quickly he comes off the ball\nand gets into the backfield. <\/li><li><strong>Amari\nNiblack: Lakewood: Ath.-6\u20194-200:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto Alabama):<\/strong> When you meet this kid is person there are not many prospects\nthat look like him. Physically he looks like a major D1 prospect. We have seen\nhim in a camp setting and have come away very impressed. Amari needs to put it\nall together on the football field. He has shown flashes of his potential. He\nhas size and can run. He just needs to find a position at the next level and\nsettle in. Amari is a high risk\/high reward type prospect. He has the physical\nattributes to be a top 10-20 player in Florida.<\/li><li><strong>Daughtey\nRichardson: Miami Central: OT: 6\u20195-270:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed to FSU<\/strong>): You see the raw potential on film. He is a big,\nlong, athletic lineman. He needs to become more consistent from one play to the\nnext. He has a tendency to bend and reach for guys. That is something that\nwon\u2019t work at the next level. We would like to see him extend his arms, lock\nonto a defender and drive them off the ball. Richardson will come off the ball\nhigh at times. He loses leverage and can get off balance. The physical traits\nare there but Richardson needs to clean some things up. <\/li><li><strong>Anthony\nHankerson: RB: 5\u201910-175:<\/strong> Hankerson is one of the most underrated players in\nthe state of Florida. He is a very good athlete. We expect him to make an\nimpact on special teams at the next level. He is also a back that can be very\ngood in a spread offense. He has good hands and is difficult to cover in space.\nHe is also a back that can go the distance anywhere on the football field. <\/li><li><strong>Jamari\nLyons: Viera: DT: 6\u20194-290<\/strong>: Lyons was a prospect we first saw a freshman.\nPhysically, he was much more impressive then teammates of his which were\nseniors at the time. He has the size to play inside and help stop the run. &nbsp;What we like about Lyons is his physical\nstrength. He just whips guys in front of him. That will not happen as easily in\ncollege but you can tell this kid is a very powerful human being. <\/li><li><strong>Jaylon\nGlover: Lake Gibson: RB: 5\u20197-195: (Committed to Utah):<\/strong> Glover is a very\nproductive football player. His production is very impressive at the high\nschool level. That being said he does not have the ideal size and speed to play\nrunning back in college. Hopefully he ends up like a Troy Davis who was\nundersized and had a great college career. Glover runs with power. He has very\ngood balance. What he lacks is that top end speed you want to see out of the\nrunning back position. <\/li><li><strong>Keanist\nThompson: Lakeland: DE: 6\u20194-230: (Committed to UCF): <\/strong>Thompson\nshows his athletic ability by playing both defensive end and tight end in high\nschool. He will play tight end and block like an elite level kid. You line him\nup on defense and all he does is get after the quarterback. He has the size and\nstrength to be able to play the run. You can move him inside and get pressure\nup the middle. His versatility is going to come in handy at the next level.<\/li><li><strong>Amarion\nBrown: Martin County: WR: 6\u20193-180 (Committed to Rutgers):<\/strong> Brown has the\nsize (6\u20193) to be a very tough match up against smaller defensive backs. He runs\nsolid routes. He hands are pretty good. He does a pretty good job of high\npointing the football. Physically, he will need to put some weight on his\nframe. He needs to get much bigger and stronger to play against D1 defensive\nbacks. He is a kid who is going to work hard to be a very good player in\ncollege. <\/li><li><strong>Jamaal\nJohnson: Chaminade: DE: 6\u20192-240<\/strong>: <strong>(Committed\nto UCF): <\/strong>Johnson is a very good pass rusher. He comes off the edge and gets\nby slower offensive tackles. His ability to get up the field and put pressure\non the quarterback is what Johnson is best at. He does well playing the run at\nthe high school level. Will he continue to have success stopping the run in\ncollege? He may have to play linebacker in college. <\/li><li><strong>Chandler\nSmith: Bishop Moore: Ath.-6\u20193-180: (Committed to UF<\/strong>): Smith is one of the\nfastest athletes in this year\u2019s class. He finished at the top of the\nleaderboard in both the 100m\/200m in Florida. When you have his size and speed\nthere are going to be plenty of suitors for your services. His ability to\nstretch the field is why so many colleges will recruit him.<\/li><li><strong>Ryan\nTurner: Chaminade: CB: 6\u20190-180 (Committed to Ohio State):<\/strong> Turner is going\nto play behind one of the best defensive lines in South Florida. He can be very\naggressive on the back end with the pass rush his teammates can provide up\nfront. He gives you a defensive back with some size and length. He plays the\nball very well. Turner will read the quarterbacks eyes and come up and make a\nplay on the football. His football instincts set him apart from other defensive\nbacks. Turner does a very good job of reacting once the ball is in the air. <\/li><li><strong>Jamaal\nWhyce: Florida Christian: DE: 6\u20194-250: (Committed to South Carolina<\/strong>):\nJamaal is one of the most underrated defensive ends in Florida this year. Turn\non his film and this kid gets up the field and can put pressure on the\nquarterback. You will see him manhandle guys across from him. He uses his hands\nvery well. You will see him use a spin move and leave the offensive tackle\ngrasping for air. He gets off the ball before the offensive tackle has a chance\nto put a hand on him. <\/li><li><strong>Austin\nFirestone: Niceville: OL\/DE: 6\u20195-260<\/strong>: <strong>(Committed\nto Northwestern):<\/strong> Firestone plays both offensive and defensive line. He has\na quick first step off the ball. He also uses his hands very well. You put him\non offense and Firestone gives you a guy who can be used as a pulling guard or\ncenter. He can get out to a backer or defensive back in space. He will need to\nget bigger and stronger to play the next level. He is not a big framed kid so\nadding weight is not something that will come naturally for him.&nbsp; <\/li><li><strong>Dante\nAnderson: Homestead: DE\/OLB: 6\u20193-210:<\/strong> Anderson plays defensive end but will\nend up an outside linebacker in college. He lacks great size and his body type\nis not going to allow him to put the necessary weight to play defensive end.\nHis main strength is getting up the field and putting pressure on the\nquarterback. He needs to show the ability to play in space. Anderson also needs\nto show that he can cover receivers and backs in coverage. <\/li><li><strong>Jacari\nHenderson-Seminole: CB-6\u20190-165<\/strong>: Big fan of Henderson. He gives you\nsome versatility on the defensive side of the football. You can play him at\ncorner, safety or move him inside to the slot. He has the ability to change direction\nquickly. He is very aggressive on the defensive side of the football. He can\nalso help on special teams. <\/li><li><strong>Shawn\nMiller: IMG Academy: WR: 6\u20191-190<\/strong>: <strong>(Committed\nto Illinois<\/strong>): Shawn runs very good routes. If he gets a free release most\ndefensive backs will not be able to stay with him. He is very quick in and out\nof his breaks. He will put his foot in the ground and get separation. He\nunderstands how to manipulate a defender. He also has very good hands. You will\nsee him go up and snatch the ball out of the air. When you need for Miller to\nblock on the edge, he is very physical.&nbsp; <\/li><li><strong>Camden\nBrown: Saint Thomas Aquinas: WR: 6\u20193-200: (Committed to Pittsburgh):<\/strong> For\nthose who have not seen Brown in person they will be impressive with his\nphysical presence. He is one of the most physically gifted prospects on the\nboard. He still needs to develop on the football field. Some teams may like\nBrown at receiver. Other teams may look at him as a tight end or possibly even\na linebacker. He is a good enough athlete to play somewhere on the football\nfield. <\/li><li><strong>Phillip\nDunnam: North Miami Beach: WR\/DB: 6\u20191-180: (Committed to Indiana):<\/strong> Dunnam\nmay be one of the most underrated players in Dade County this upcoming season.\nHe is a play maker on both sides of the football. When NMB needs a big play on\noffense it is Dunnam they turn to. On defense he is very aggressive. His\nfootball instincts make him one of the better defensive backs in South Florida.\n<\/li><li><strong>Hayden\nSchwartz: Jacksonville Bolles: DL: 6\u20194-250:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed to Nebraska):<\/strong> Hayden can play inside or out at the next\nlevel. He is another defensive lineman that brings some versatility up front.\nHe plays with good technique. You will see him dip under a tackle and get\npressure on the quarterback. He is very good at stretching out plays wide and\nallowing his teammates to come up and make a play. Hayden will fight off blocks\nand bring a ball carrier down. His strength is playing the run. <\/li><li><strong>Jyvonte\nMcClendon: Lake Gibson: S: 6\u20192-170: (Committed to South Carolina):<\/strong>\nMcClendon has as much upside as any defensive back in this year\u2019s class. He has\ngreat size and McClendon can run. He does not have the hype of his teammates\nMcCall and McClain but it would not shock us to see him have a better career in\ncollege. He runs very well. He also is not afraid to be physical when coming up\nin run support. <\/li><li><strong>Omar\nGraham: Stranahan: OLB: 6\u20191-210:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto FSU): <\/strong>Graham is a player who lines up at defensive end. You will see him\ncome off the edge and try and get pressure on the quarterback. He is not real\nbig (6\u20191) and you have to wonder if he can play end in college. We feel Graham\nis going to have to play linebacker at the next level. The question then\nbecomes can he play in space? Omar started off slow in recruiting and then blew\nup this spring. <\/li><li><strong>Travious\nLathan: Gulliver Prep: LB: 6\u20192-200<\/strong>: Trey shows off his athletic ability as\nyou will see him play on both offense and defense. He displays good overage\nskills. You will see him play the run. He has good football instincts. Lathan\ntackles well but you would like to see him be a little more physical. He is an\nall-around football player. &nbsp;<\/li><li><strong>Tawfiq\nThomas: Gaither: DT: 6\u20194-320:<\/strong> Thomas is a guy who is going to take up\nspace. He is big and very physical. You will be surprised to see someone his\nsize get off the ball so well. He is a big, athletic lineman. He forces some\nteams to double team him. You will see his athletic ability when watching his\nfilm and Thomas runs a fade route and catches a touchdown. His size and\nstrength make him very difficult to move off the ball. <\/li><li><strong>Nikai Martinez:\nApopka: CB: 5\u201910-170:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed to\nUCF<\/strong>): Matrinez comes from a program that the players are very physical. One\nthing Nikai will do is set a quarterback up to make a mistake. He does a good\njob of knowing what the other team is trying to run on offense. He has good\nball skills. His technique is also very good. Martinez is a sound player who\ndoes not make a ton of mistakes. <\/li><li><strong>Demari\nHenderson: Seminole: CB: 6\u20190-155:<\/strong> Demari is a very good football\nplayer. He helps shut down half the field. He has the speed and quickness to\nnot only make an impact on defense but on special teams. He does need some work\nin the tackling<\/li><li><strong>Venson\nSneed: Winter Park: DL: 6\u20195-250: (Committed to Tennessee):<\/strong> Sneed just\ndominates guys at the high school level. He will shoot the gaps and get into\nthe backfield to make plays. He is very effective at playing the run. He is\nalso very tough. You will see him line up as an offensive lineman and drive a\ndefender back. He has good feet. He moves well for a big man. His strength is\nplaying the run. <\/li><li><strong>Devin\nMoore: Naples: DB: 6\u20192-175:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto Notre Dame)<\/strong> Moore has been one of Naples best players for the past few\nseasons. He has good technique. You will see him turn and run and then quickly\nchange direction. He is fluid in his hips. His ability to play corner or safety\nalso makes him more of a priority. <\/li><li><strong>Bishop\nThomas: Bishop Moore: DT: 6\u20192-300:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto FSU):<\/strong> Thomas is a prospect who transferred in from Louisiana. He is a\nbig body lineman who can take on double teams. He is a guy who is going to be\nvery effective at stuffing the run. He moves extremely well for a big man. He\nhas the ability to take on blocks and allow his linebackers to clean up behind\nhim. <\/li><li><strong>Davin\nWydner: Cocoa: QB: 6\u20195-220:<\/strong> If there is a prospect that we could see\ndeveloping into an NFL draft pick it is Wydner. He is further along as a high\nschool prospect then Paxton Lynch who went to Memphis and ended up a 1<sup>st<\/sup>\nround pick. Wydner is a raw prospect but you can see his upside. He has a good\narm and can make most of the throws asked of him. <\/li><li><strong>Mekhi\nMason: Monsignor Pace-LB: 6\u20192-200:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto Syracuse): <\/strong>Mason is one of the fastest rising linebackers in this class.\nHe has the size and speed to match up against running backs and receivers in\nspace. He is very effective against the run. His athletic ability allows him to\nbe an every down backer. Mason can be used on passing downs. We also like his\nsize as you can match him up against some tight ends as well. <\/li><li><strong>Jai-Ayviauynn\nCelestine: Miami Palmetto: Ath: 5\u20199-170:<\/strong> One of the most impressive\nperformances in a spring game came from G7. He is very physical. There is not a\nmore physical person pound for pound in the state of Florida. He also has very\ngood speed and quickness. You watch him run and Celestine can make an impact on\noffense, defense or special teams. <\/li><li><strong>Zion\nTurner: Saint Thomas Aquinas: QB-6\u20191-180: <\/strong>Turner got some early recognition\nas a top quarterback and his hype slowed down a bit this off-season. Turner can\nthrow the ball. He has pretty good accuracy. He is also a quarterback that can\nbeat you with his legs. He still has a ton of room for improvement. If he puts\nit all together, Turner could end up a very good quarterback in college. <\/li><li><strong>Alfonzo\nAllen: Hallandale: S:&nbsp; 6\u20191-180 (Committed\nto Arizona State<\/strong>): Allen has very good range. You can put him anywhere on\nthe back end of your defense and you will get results. He has the speed and\nquickness to help in coverage. He has the ability to make defenders miss on\nspecial teams. His feet are a big reason why we see him as a defensive back. He\ncan make quick cuts and change direction well. <\/li><li><strong>James\nMonds: Vero Beach: CB: 5\u201910-180:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto Indiana): <\/strong>Monds is a multi-talented athlete. You will see him line up on\nboth sides of the football and on special teams. Here is a kid that has been on\nthe radar since his freshman season. He has nice size and length and that is\nwhy we like him on defense. He has great feet. You watch him move around the\nback end of the defense and the game looks so easy for him. He also has very\ngood instincts for a football player. <\/li><li><strong>Devaughn\nMortimer: Dillard: Ath: 5\u201910-160(Committed to Florida State<\/strong>): Mortimer\nbrings one trait to the table: SPEED. He is one of the fastest receivers in\nFlorida this year. We expect him to at least make it as a special team\u2019s\nplayer. He is a solid receiver. You would like to see him used more in the\npassing game. He will be great on jet sweeps. <\/li><li><strong>Kobe\nMcCloud: Gaither: ILB: 6\u20191-210:<\/strong> Gaither is an inside linebacker. He is\nbuilt like an inside backer. He runs like an inside backer. You put him between\nthe tackles and McCloud will clean up and make plays. His size allows him to\nplay physical. McCloud lacks the speed to play on the outside in college. Keep\nhim between the tackles and that is where Kobe is most effective. He can play\nthe flats and make plays. Having him drop down the middle of the field is not a\nstrength of his. <\/li><li><strong>Leon\nHart: Miami Edison: LB: 6\u20192-190:<\/strong> Hart is an old school linebacker. He is a\nphysical kid who likes to come up and hit a ball carrier. He does not mind\ncontact. Hart is a backer who has good instincts. He fills the hole and makes\nplays behind the line of scrimmage. We like that Hart is always moving forward.\nHe does need to work on his technique. <\/li><li><strong>Cam\nMiller: Trinity Christian: DB: 6\u20190-170:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed to Penn State): <\/strong>Miller is a prospect that has great ball\nskills. He plays the football very well. He will bait the quarterback into bad\nthrows. You will see him sit back, read the quarterbacks eyes and pounce. We\nlike how well Miller comes up and tackles. He does not try and go for the big\nhit. You will see him take the proper angle and bring the receiver down. <\/li><li><strong>Edric Weldon:\nHallandale:S: 6\u20195-210<\/strong>: Weldon plays safety but we project him as an OLB in\ncollege. His frame should allow him to carry the necessary weight to play\nlinebacker at the next level. He has the range to be very productive on\ndefense. We like how aggressive he is on the football field. His ability to\nmake plays in space is also important. He has very good ball skills for a\nprospect with his size. <\/li><li><strong>Devin\nSmith: Oakleaf: LB: 6\u20192-230:<\/strong> Smith is a big, physical backer. He is listed\nat 235 pounds and looks every bit of it. He is a guy that can play the run.\nSmith is going to come up and fill the gaps and make plays. He can cover the\nflats. The question with Smith is can he drop back into coverage and cover a\ntight end or receiver in space? <\/li><li><strong>Marquis\nLymon-Delray Atlantic-DB-5\u201910-180:<\/strong> Lymon is built more like a corner. You watch\nhim play and Lymon may end up a slot corner at the next level. He is a guy you\ncan play in space. He does go for some big hits. He needs to learn to take\nbetter angles when tackling.<\/li><li><strong>Matthew\nJames: St. Andrews: Ath.: 6\u20191-170:<\/strong> James is one of the best athletes in\nPalm Beach County this season. Turn on his film and James is making big plays.\nWhen you play at a smaller program you want to make sure those kids dominate\nand that is what James does. He is a very good kid who is coachable. He can\nplay multiple positions on the football field. Someone is going to get a very\ngood prospect in the next few months. <\/li><li><strong>Christian\nMurphy: Dillard: OLB\/DE: 6\u20190-215:<\/strong> Had the chance to watch him practice this\nspring and came away very impressed. He followed up his great performance in\npractice with a pick six in his spring game. Murphy is very fast and can close\nquickly on the ball carrier. Put him on the edge and let him rush the passer\nand Murphy will get the job done. He is another player who is underrated. We\nexpect him to end up with multiple offers after summer camps are completed.<\/li><li><strong>Alton\nTarber: Deerfield Beach: DT: 6\u20191-300:<\/strong> Tarber is going to end up a nose\nguard in college. He has a quick first step off the ball and can penetrate the\nbackfield. He uses his hands well. Tarber has some nice strength. He will whip\nsingle blocks. He is a guy that is very stout against the run. He does not give\nyou much as a pass rusher. <\/li><li><strong>Jamarian\nBurt: Trinity Catholic: Ath.: (Committed to UF<\/strong>): Burt has\nbeen used as a running back and now will play receiver. He has the type of\nspeed and quickness to flip a field on one play. He is a one step and go type\nof back. Get him some blocks and Burt is in the opening and something special\nwill happen.<\/li><li><strong>Rian Black:\nRockledge: WR: 6\u20190-190 (Committed to Coastal Carolina):<\/strong> He has good size\nfor a receiver. Black can play outside or move him inside to the slot. He is\nversatile enough to play multiple positons at the next level. Black is a\nreceiver that will push his routes down the field. He forces you to play him\nshort or deep. If the ball is under thrown, he will stop and make the\nadjustment to come down with it. You can throw it out front of Black and he\nwill chase it down. He is very effective after the catch. <\/li><li><strong>Shomari\nSeymour: Plantation: OT: 6\u20195-270:<\/strong> Seymour is a work in progress. He does some\nthings very well. There are other things he needs to work on. He tries to\nphysically whip the guy opposite him because of the size advantage that Seymour\nusually has. He has good feet. You will see him get on his guy and drive them\nbackwards. The talent is there but Seymour just needs to continue to work hard.<\/li><li><strong>Quan Lee:\nBuchholz: WR: 5\u201910-170 (Committed to UCF):<\/strong> You can turn on his film and\nthis kid is aggressive on the football field. He goes up and attacks the\nfootball in the air. He is very physical on both offense and defense. You will\nsee him sustain his blocks and take a defensive back out of a play. He can come\nover the top and help out in coverage. He is a very good athlete who will find\na spot to play in college. <\/li><li><strong>Jaydon\nHodge: Ocala Forest: DB: 6\u20192-170:<\/strong> Hodge is one of the most underrated\nplayers on the board. He has size and the kid is very physical. We like that he\ngives you some size on the back end of your secondary. He can come up and play\nthe run. He is also very good in pass coverage. His ability to see the ball and\nreact quickly is why so many teams will recruit him. Look for Hodge to make an\nimpact at the next level. <\/li><li><strong>Brian\nGrant: Choctawhatchee: OT: 6\u20198-260 (Committed to Tennessee):<\/strong> Grant plays\ndefensive line at this time. He is going to end up an offensive tackle in\ncollege. He is a former basketball player who decided to try out for football.\nHe is a raw prospect but you can see his upside. He does not have enough burst\nto play defensive end. If he did play on the defensive line, Grant would have\nto move inside to tackle. His size, length and athletic ability is best served\nwith him playing on offense. We will continue to monitor his progress this\nupcoming season. <\/li><li><strong>Decarlo\nDonaldson: Gulliver Prep:&nbsp; TE-6\u20192-220\n(Committed to Tulane): Donaldson<\/strong> is not your typical tight end. He has\nreceiving like skills. You can line him up out wide as a receiver and let him\ngo one on one with a defensive back. You can put him near a tackle and let him\ntry and run by a linebacker. Donaldson can also line up in the backfield. His\nability to move around on offense is going to be an offensive coordinators\ndream. <\/li><li><strong>Michah\nPollard: Bartram Trail: LB-6\u20193-200:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto Michigan): <\/strong>Pollard is going to give you a backer on the outside that has\nthe size and length you want. He can drop back into coverage and get good\ndepth. He is a productive player that can be moved around to take advantage of\nhis skill set. <\/li><li><strong>Nick\nCampbell: Lake Minneola: DE: 6\u20193-260: (Committed to NC State):<\/strong> Campbell has\nthe size to play strong side defensive end. He is a big, long, athletic\nprospect. What we like is his physical strength. He can physically whip the guy\nopposite him. He does very well at not giving up on plays. His strength is what\nallows him to overpower the guy in front of him. Campbell may not have those\nsame advantages in college. He can also get pressure on the quarterback. Nick\ncan move inside to tackle on passing downs<\/li><li><strong>Brian\nDilworth: Chaminade: CB: 6\u20190-170:<\/strong> Dilworth gives you a defensive back with\npretty good technique. He understands leverage. He will use the sideline as his\nfriend. You will see him bait quarterbacks into poor throws. He does a good job\nof positioning himself between the receiver and ball.&nbsp; <\/li><li><strong>Jullian\nLewis: Western: WR: 6\u20191-210:<\/strong> Lewis comes from a program that produced\nElijah Moore. They have had a couple of other prospects end up in the NFL. He\ndoes a very good job of playing the football in the air. He does a very good\njob of high pointing the football. Lewis runs very solid routes. He does not\nhave next level speed but the rest of his game is very good. <\/li><li><strong>Mason\nThomas: Cardinal Gibbons: DE: 6\u20193-220:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto Iowa State): <\/strong>Thomas is Gibbons best pass rusher. He does a good job of\ncoming off the ball and reading the quarterbacks eyes. You will see him stop,\njump up and either knock a ball down or intercept it. You will see him get up\nthe field and be one on one with the ball carrier and Thomas does not get\nbroken down. He is very effective against the run but Thomas does give you a\nsolid pass rusher. <\/li><li><strong>Victor\nJones: Olympia: WR-6\u20192-190: (Committed to Nebraska):<\/strong> Jones\nreminds us of Kenny Shaw who came out of Central Florida. He is a thin kid who\njust goes out and makes plays. He runs solid routes. You will see him get in\nand out of his breaks quickly. You will see him catch the ball and make\nsomething happen afterwards. Jones can catch the ball in traffic.<\/li><li><strong>Kedrick\nDebron: Gadsden County: RB: 6\u20190-200:<\/strong> Debron has flown under the radar. He\nis a bigger back that can make quick cuts and lose a defender. He can run\nbetween the tackles and pick up the tough yards. You will also see him bounce\nit to the outside and get big gains. He has good feet. He does not go down on\nfirst contact. <\/li><li><strong>Isaiah\nHastings: Clearwater Academy: DL: 6\u20195-270:<\/strong> Hastings is a prospect to keep\nan eye on. He has good size and can take on a double team. He has pretty good\nstrength. Hastings will be able to help against the run. He is a big bodied\ndefensive tackle that can take on blocks. He has the size and length to be\ndisruptive from the middle of the lie of scrimmage. <\/li><li><strong>Isaiah\nGordon: Mainland: RB: 6\u20190-215:<\/strong> Gordon plays running back but it would not\nsurprise us to see him move to linebacker in college. He is a physically\nimpressive looking prospect. We could see him ending up weighing around 230-235\npounds in college. With his knowledge of playing on offense and converting him\nto defense, Gordon may be a natural on that side of the football. He has a\npunishing running style where Gordon does not mind initiating contact. <\/li><li><strong>Segree\nGraham: Bartram Trail-DT: 6\u20193-250 (Committed to Cincinnati):<\/strong> Graham is a\ndefensive lineman that wins battles by out working the guy in front of him. He\nis a high energy guy with a motor that does not stop. He is not the biggest or\nmost athletic player but Graham is productive on his side of the ball. He is\nvery tough to run against because of how well he uses his hands. He can give\nyou a rush from the inside but his run support is how Graham gets wins. <\/li><li><strong>Dominick\nFields: Bartram Trail: 6\u20190-180<\/strong>: Fields is more of a strong safety. He does\nneed to learn to tackle better. He comes in and then lowers his head and tries\nto go for a receivers or backs legs. Feilds is a guy that can run. You will see\nhim flash speed and quickness that not many defensive backs will. Fields has\ngood feet. What he needs to do is work on his technique. Fields is a prospect\nthat is going to need to get coached up.<\/li><li><strong>Xavier\nScott: Dwyer: Ath:&nbsp; 6\u20190-180:<\/strong> Scott is\na prospect that goes out and gets it done on the field. He is another athlete\nwho plays receiver and defensive back. On offense you will see him get behind\nthe secondary. He can also catch a quick slant or wheel route and make a big\nplay. He runs hard. Another year in the system at Dwyer and Scott will only get\nbetter. <\/li><li><strong>Mike\nJackson: Miami Palmetto: WR-5\u201910-150: Worst<\/strong> case scenario Jackson just ends\nup on special teams. He can play slot receiver or possibly slot corner in\ncollege. He is not real big but Jackson has very good speed and quickness. He\nis difficult to cover in the open field. Get him in space and make sure to\nutilize his athletic ability. <\/li><li><strong>Anthony\nRose: Miami Central: 6\u20194-190: (Committed to South Carolina):<\/strong> Rose is\nanother long, athletic defensive back. He is raw but you can see the upside\nwith this kid. If you are looking for some length and range in the secondary,\nRose is that type of player. He has the ability to make an impact in the\npassing game. You see him drop into coverage and Rose has the length to disrupt\nwhere the ball is going. <\/li><li><strong>Paul\nHuston III-IMG Academy: DT-6\u20191-290:<\/strong> Hutson is a prospect can take on a double team\nand beat it. He plays right over the center and is disruptive. His strength is\nstopping the run. He lacks great quickness. You will see him get off the ball\nand just push the pocket backwards. Many of his wins are because Hutson is\nbigger and stronger then the guy in front of him. He will need to work on\nimproving to have the same success in college.<\/li><li><strong>Dylan\nLopez: IMG Academy: OC: 6\u20192-285 (Committed to Oregon State): <\/strong>Lopez is\nstrictly a center. If he does not work out at that position maybe Lopez can\nplay guard. There are not many guards these days who measure in at 6\u20192. He is a\ntough kid who plays with both good leverage and technique. He stays low and\nmoves guys off the ball. He is one of the best center prospects in the state of\nFlorida this year.<\/li><li><strong>Melvin\nJordan: Calvary Christian: LB: 6\u20190-200: (Committed to Oregon State): Jordan<\/strong>\nis a very good linebacker. He has been on the recruiting radar since his\nfreshman season. Many times when a guy plays that early they get picked apart.\nYou turn on his film and this kid is all over the field. He has good instincts\nand understands the game of football. He is not the biggest or fastest player\nbut Jordan makes plays. <\/li><li><strong>Websley\nEtienne: Western: DB: 5\u201911-170: (Committed to Buffalo):<\/strong> &nbsp;Etienne is a prospect that has flown under the\nradar. He plays safety but it would not surprise us to see him play some corner\nin college. He is a prospect that is always around the football. He knows when\nto initiate contact with a receiver. <\/li><li><strong>Elijah Hopkins:\nVanguard: CB: 5\u201910-160: (Committed to Coastal Carolina): <\/strong>Hopkins is a\nprospect that comes from a program that produces a ton of talent. He is next in\nline to take his talents to the next level. He has above average size and solid\nspeed. His athletic ability allows him to play multiple position. You watch him\nplay running back and he has some wiggle to his game. He can make defenders\nmiss. He has quick feet which is why we like him on the defensive side of the\nfootball. <\/li><li><strong>James\nSmiley: Armwood: RB: 6\u20190-190:<\/strong> Smiley has some elusiveness to his game.\nBacks like him usually don\u2019t move like Smiley does. He can run between the\ntackles with either power or finesse. He is a strong back that is going to drag\ndefenders with him and you tackle Smiley wrong. He has patience and will wait\ntill an opening is there and then shoot through. You will see Armwood use him\nin the screen game and Smiley does very well. <\/li><li><strong>Maurice\nJones: Killian: RB-5\u20199-180 (Committed to Marshall):<\/strong> Jones will most likely\nend up the best back in South Florida. He has very good balance. You will see\nhim get hit, keep his feet and break off a long run. He runs with power and for\nsomeone his size it is impressive. We like how well he sets up a defender and\nbreaks them down. You are looking at a back that could make a name for himself\nthis year. <\/li><li><strong>OJ Ross:\nCocoa: RB: 5\u201910-170<\/strong>: Ross is listed as a running back but can play multiple\npositions in college. He is a very good athlete. You watch his feet and Ross\ncan make the first and second defender miss in the open field. His feet are a\nbig reason why we could see him playing corner in college. His elusiveness may\nmake it tough for some coaches to take him off offense. <\/li><li><strong>Aidan\nGousby: Lehigh: Ath: 6\u20192-190: (Committed to Minnesota): <\/strong>Aidan has the size\nand length to play receiver, linebacker or defensive back. Here is another\nversatile athlete that you sign and worry about where to play him once in\ncollege. We like his physicality on the football field. He does not back down\nfrom a challenge. You can get him the ball on offense and Goulsby will score.\nYou can drop him back into coverage and Aidan will help out in the passing\ngame. He is a complete player and should have a very good career.<\/li><li><strong>Keaton\nThomas: The Bolles School: WR: 6\u20192-210:<\/strong> Thomas has big hands. He will go up\nand snatch the ball out of the air. He has good hands and if the ball is\nanywhere near him, Thomas will catch the ball. He is a guy that is going to be\ntough on crossing routes. Smaller receivers can\u2019t body him up. He shows his\nathletic ability to special teams. Thomas is a much underrated player and\nshould make an impact in college. <\/li><li><strong>Jaziun\nPatterson: Deerfield Beach: RB: 5\u201910-170:<\/strong> Patterson is built well. He has a\nstrong upper and lower body. He can run through tackles and get into the open\nfield. His style of running reminds us a little of Devonta Freeman. He runs\nwith good balance. You rarely see him go down on first contact. What we like\nmost is Patterson will lower his shoulder and run you over. He is also a player\nthat can be effective in the passing game. <\/li><li><strong>Joanes\nFortlien: Dr. Phillips: WR: 6\u20193-210:<\/strong> Joanes is another big bodied receiver.\nHe is more of a possession receiver then a deep threat. Joanes will help move\nthe chains. He is also effective at going across the middle of the field and\nmaking the tough catch. He could eventually grow into an H-back in college. <\/li><li><strong>Josiah\nLancaster: Plant City: OT: 6\u20195-320: <\/strong>Lancaster has size. He is a big body\nlineman that once he gets on a defender Josiah locks them up. He has strong\nhands. We like how well he moves guys off the ball. He can play tackle but it\nwould not surprise us to see him play guard. Josiah can handle an up field pass\nrusher. It is when then come back inside he could get off balance and beaten on\na play. <\/li><li><strong>Jason\nSearphin: North Miami Beach: OL: 6\u20193-300:<\/strong> Jason is one of those players\nthat comes from a program where they produce in college. He is not the biggest\nbut there are not many players who are more physical. He can come off the ball\nand drive his guy backwards. He is very physical and his strength is run\nblocking. In pass pro there are some things that Jason will need to learn. He\nis versatile enough to play guard or center in college. <\/li><li><strong>Trequan\nAlexander: Tampa Jesuit: OG: 6\u20193-290:<\/strong> Alexander is a versatile lineman. You\nwill see him line up at tackle and we feel that he could play guard or center\nat the next level. He moves well for a big guy. You will see him get onto a\ndefender and finish them. He will drive a defender back into the ground. His\nfeet are a big reason why we like him so much. When big guys are nimble on\ntheir feet they are able to handle top pass rushers. He is a very good player\nwho should find a home at the next level. <\/li><li><strong>Jeremiah\nJackson: Kathleen: OG: 6\u20193-275:<\/strong> Jackson is a road grader. He comes off the\nball and tries to punish the guy opposite him. He has some nice toughness. Here\nis a lineman that likes to fire off the ball and drive a defender into the\nturf. He has pretty good feet. You will see him move well laterally. <\/li><li><strong>Delizaire\nBasette: American Heritage Plantation: DT: 6\u20192-275: (Committed to Syracuse):<\/strong>\nHe is more of an athletic defensive lineman than a guy who is going to take up\nspace. He is very active up front and can disrupt what you are trying to do on\noffense. He relies on his quickness to beat the guy in front of him. We would\nstill like to see him get stronger in his lower body. If he works hard at the\nnext level you are looking at a two year starter.&nbsp; <\/li><li><strong>Gabriel\nJacas: Fort Pierce Central: DE: 6\u20194-230: (Committed to Tulane): Jacas<\/strong> has a\nsuccessful wrestling background. He is quick off the ball and does a good job\nusing his hands. He is not easy to move off the ball. His strength allows him\nto dictate to an offensive lineman where they will go. He may get big enough to\nmove inside on passing downs. Jacas is an underrated defensive end and we would\nnot be surprised if this kid ends up an All-Conference type player down the\nroad. <\/li><li><strong>Daterius\nLee: Deerfield Beach: ILB: 6\u20190-215: <\/strong>Lee is listed as an OLB but we project\nhim to move inside at the next level. He is an in the box type player. We like\nthat his physical style of play will fit inside. He is the type of player&nbsp; you can put him on special teams and Lee will\nmake some plays. You will see him used as a pass rusher off the edge. He does\nclose quickly and that is one of the things that makes him such a good\nprospect. <\/li><li><strong>Julian\nCalvez: Orlando Jones: QB-6\u20192-170:<\/strong> Calvez is a project. He has the physical\nattributes such as a nice arm, he can make all the throws. Julian just needs to\nwork on his consistency. He is not always on the mark. When he has time to\nthrow and Calvez is on there are not many better quarterbacks in Florida. <\/li><li><strong>Eden\nJames: Treasure Coast: RB\/Ath.-5\u201910-170:<\/strong> James plays quarterback but we\nproject him more as an athlete. He can play running back, receiver or defensive\nback. When Treasure Coast needs a big play they turn to Eden to come through.\nHe is just a good football player. He does not have great size and has above\naverage speed. There are just some guys that the lights come on and they\nperform at a high level and James is one of those players. <\/li><li><strong>Kareem\nBurke: Raines: WR: 6\u20190-170:<\/strong> <strong>(Committed\nto UCONN):<\/strong> Burke is a very good high school football player. He is a\nreceiver that makes a ton of plays after the catch. He can make a defender miss\nin the open field. If you let Burke get behind your secondary you will most\nlikely see him in the end-zone. <\/li><li><strong>Eddie\nKelly: Orlando Jones: WR: 6\u20195-210:<\/strong> Kelly is a big target. He is a receiver that\nis going to move to tight end in college. He has great size and Kelly is a\nmiss-match against most defenses. The fact that you can line him up anywhere on\nthe offensive side makes him a luxury for an offensive coordinator.<\/li><li><strong>Derrell\nJohnson: Lee High School: OG: 6\u20193-270: (Committed to Wake Forest) <\/strong>Johnson\ncomes off the ball and moves people. You will Johnson get his hands on a\ndefender and get them on skates. He is very physical off the ball. He moves\nextremely well for a big man. He is a guy that is athletic enough to play\ntackle in college. He is big, strong and physical enough to move inside to\nguard. He has good feet and plays with balance. His technique for a high school\nlineman is solid. <\/li><li><strong>Tellek\nLockette: Saint Thomas Aquinas: OG: 6\u20193-260<\/strong>: Tellek is a kid that has\nplayed on some successful football teams. He now moves over to Saint Thomas\nwhere he will be part of one of the best offensive lines in the state of\nFlorida. Lockett does need to work on his technique. He will have a tendency to\nlunge at a defender. He must also work on his lower body strength. If he\nimproves those two areas of his game, Tellek will end up a solid college\nlineman. <\/li><li><strong>Rasheed\nLovelace: Pine Forest: DT: 6\u20193-300: <\/strong>Lovelace is very good against the run.\nHe does a very good job of pushing the pocket back and making it difficult for\na running back to find a running lane up the middle of the field. You will see\nhim use his hands. He is very strong. Lovelace can dominate the point of\nattack. <\/li><li><strong>Daveon\nCrouch: Tampa Wharton: Ath.-6\u20192-190: (Committed to Boston College): <\/strong>Crouch\nis a very smart and instinctive athlete. He understands what the offense is\ntrying to do before the ball is snapped. He can line up at multiple positions\non the defensive side of the football. With his athletic ability, Crouch is\nvery effective at moving around the defensive side of the ball and making\nplays.<\/li><li><strong>Elijah\nMcCantos: Miami Edison: CB: 6\u20191-170:<\/strong> McCantos gives you a corner with some\nsize. He is built more like a safety than a corner. He goes against the\nopposition&#8217;s best receiver each week. When tested, McCantos is up to the\nchallenge. He can be a lock down corner in some games. One thing you notice is his\nability to change direction. A receiver can try and run a double move on\nMcCantos and he won&#8217;t get broken down.<\/li><li><strong>Cornelius Wright: Columbus: CB: 5\u201910-165:<\/strong> Wright comes from a high school that has produced some very good defensive backs of late. Joshua Jobe, CJ Henderson, Trajan Bandy are all guys who went through Columbus and had very good college careers. Wright is next in line. He is a very aggressive corner. You will see him bait a quarterback and then go back and intercept the ball. He has very good make up speed. He can close quickly on a ball carrier. His technique is something we would like to see him improve on. <\/li><li><strong>Darius\nThomas: Miramar High School: DB: 6\u20193-190:<\/strong> Thomas is a prospect that is\nabout to blow up. He is one of the best looking safety prospects in the\ncountry. He has great size and athletic ability. The way Thomas moves it would\nnot surprise us to see him play linebacker in college. He has the ability to\ndrop into coverage and cover tight ends and receivers. His size allows him to\ncome closer to the line of scrimmage and play the run. <\/li><li><strong>Matthew\nMerritt: Andrew Jackson: Ath: 6\u20193-170:<\/strong> Merritt is a prospect that has all\nthe physical attributes you want in a defensive player. He has the size and\nlength to play safety or linebacker. He could eventually grow into a\nlinebacker. Merritt is a prospect that plays well in space. He can also play\ninside the box and help in run support. <\/li><li><strong>Reece\nDobard: Delray Atlantic: WR: 6\u20195-200:<\/strong> Dobard dominated his spring games. He\nwas able to go and high point the football over any defensive back that lined\nup against him. Dobard does not have elite level speed but his size and route\nrunning ability make him a tough guy to guard. You will see Reece physical whip\nsmaller defensive backs. We expect his stock to rise after the spring. <\/li><li><strong>Rocco\nBecht: Wiregrass: QB-5\u201911-170 (Committed to Iowa State): Becht<\/strong> father was a\ntight end in college and played in the NFL. The younger Becht does not have his\nfather\u2019s physical attributes but more then gets by with them at the quarterback\nposition. Here is a kid that can manage a game. He understands where his\noutlets on the field are. He gets the ball in his play maker\u2019s hands and allows\nthem to make a play after the catch. He is a solid player who should have a\nproductive career at the next level. <\/li><li><strong>Rhyland\nKelly: Clearwater Academy: CB: 6\u20192-185 (Committed to Minnesota):<\/strong> Kelly is a\nprospect that gives you size and length in the secondary. He also has pretty\ngood speed for a guy his size. You will see him run down a fast receiver in the\nfirst clip of his highlights. He has the range to really disrupt opposing teams\npassing attacks. Kelly plays with good technique. He does not allow receiver to\nbeat him deep. He seems to understand the game of football. <\/li><li><strong>Matthew\nMcDoom: West Orange: Ath.-5\u20198-160: (Committed to Coastal Carolina):<\/strong> Matthew\nis an elite level athlete. He can beat you on offense, defense and special\nteams. Some coaches will want to have his hands on the ball. Other coaches will\nlike his aggressiveness and put him on defense. It is a good situation to have\nas McDoom should make an impact at the next level. <\/li><li><strong>Jaron\nGlover: Sarasota Riverview: WR: 6\u20193-180: (Committed to Michigan State):<\/strong> One thing Jaron has is size. He is a big kid. We also like that for\nhis size that he is not stiff. He can make a defender miss in the open field.\nWe would like to see him use his size to catch the ball. No reason not to high\npoint the ball. He has a major size advantage and should use it.<\/li><li><strong>Xavier\nTownsend: Berkeley Prep: Ath: 5\u201910-175<\/strong>: <strong>(Committed to Iowa State):<\/strong> Townsend is a very good athlete. You will\nwatch him and the kids got quick feet. He does not waste much motion to get\ninto the open field. You will see him make defenders miss and turn on the after\nburners. He is a very good athlete that just needs the opportunity to shine. He\nis not afraid to go up and get the football. He will challenge defensive backs\non every play.<\/li><\/ol>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When it comes to talent there is no state in the country that produces more ELITE players then Florida.
