Top 100: Linebackers Are Gifted For 2022

As we continue to spotlight the Top 100 plus juniors in the state, today we land on a position that annually produces some difference makers. Playing linebacker in this state carries with it plenty of tradition. Some of the elite football prospects have long played linebacker and moved on to the next level – and beyond. <img class="alignright size-medium wp-image-53131" src="https://prephoops-uploads.s3.amazonaws.com/redzone/uploads/2020/09/2022-Rankings-3-300x150.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="150" />The group that we have for the Class of 2022 are among the best you will find anywhere in the country. Football players who have become catalysts and have often sparked their team. We have five linebackers who you will be hearing a lot from in 2020 and 2021. <strong>Wesley Bissanthe, LB, 6-2, 200, Miami Central.</strong> While many national analysts have never had the opportunity to watch this impressive athlete play live and in person, they seem to want to have a take on what he does. If you do not watch this impressive football player in person, you completely miss out on what he is all about. He is fast, aggressive and tremendously athletic. Very few who play the position come close to what he brings to the table – and has been making an impact since his freshman season. A tremendous run stopper, who will chase any quarterback around. Has been offered and watched by every major college in America. By the way, he is also an outstanding basketball player as well. The best in the state and one of the top 3 nationally. <strong>TAPE:</strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/12764193/Wesley-Bissanthe"> https://www.hudl.com/profile/12764193/Wesley-Bissanthe</a> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="50046" first="Tray" last="Brown"], 6-0, 200, Fort Lauderdale Cardinal Gibbons.</strong> Another of these under-the-radar football players who many have not watched that much. If you saw him play, you would automatically thrust him into the spotlight. Gifted prospect who does it all. Can run, stop the run, chase the quarterback and has instincts that you just cannot teach. Has been making a difference for the Chiefs the past two years – and will very much be in the middle of everything once plays starts in 2020. <strong>TAPE: </strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/9539075/Tray-Brown">https://www.hudl.com/profile/9539075/Tray-Brown</a> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="49990" first="Sam" last="McCall"], 6-0, 180, Lakeland Lake Gibson.</strong> Like so many great football players in this state, this is someone who can also dominate a game – with his quickness, football IQ and ability to make plays all over the field. Loves being matched up against elite players and teams. It gives him a chance to showcase his many skills – and the Braves are fortunate to have him for two more years. Has already gotten off to a tremendous start in 2020. <strong>TAPE: </strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/11344706/Sam-McCall">https://www.hudl.com/profile/11344706/Sam-McCall</a> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="50061" first="Kobe" last="McCloud"], 6-1, 210, Tampa Gaither.</strong> Yet another athletic prospect who dominates on defense – as a run stopper and a physical football player who reads plays as well as anyone. He will hit you hard! By the way, he also has the ability to play quarterback as well. Just a pure athlete who is still learning more and more about the game all the time. <strong>TAPE:</strong> <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/11144184/Kobe-McCloud">https://www.hudl.com/profile/11144184/Kobe-McCloud</a> <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="50289" first="Isaiah" last="Reynolds"], Lakeland Victory Christian.</strong> While he may be a bit undersized, you better not underestimate this quality football talent. He is a playmaker – and if you don’t block him, he will make your life very tough. Has already shown this season that he will be around the ball on every play. Whether it’s putting pressure on the quarter, covering out of the backfield or playing the run, this is one of those impressive football players who does make a difference. In addition to his play at linebacker, he is also someone who can play the quarterback position as well. Everyone like a QB with a linebacker’s mentality! <strong>TAPE:</strong> <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/11113836/Isaiah-Reynolds">https://www.hudl.com/profile/11113836/Isaiah-Reynolds</a> <strong>See The Entire Top 100 Plus For The Class of 2022.</strong> <a href="https://prepredzone.com/florida/rankings/2022-rankings/">https://prepredzone.com/florida/rankings/2022-rankings/</a> <strong><em>You Can Contact Larry Blustein with prospect or team information at: </em></strong><strong><em><a href="mailto:Foridakids1@aol.com">Foridakids1@aol.com</a></em></strong><strong><em>.
