There is still plenty of talent left in the ’21 class from the state of Michigan especially at the defensive back position. Most of these kids will end up making up the rosters for many D2,D3,and NAIA schools. However, that does not downplay their game whatsoever as all of these kids are ballers and will get a shot somewhere. [player_tooltip player_id="29988" first="Syrr" last="Sanders"] 6’4 175 ’21 DB Waterford Mott Long DB who can turn and run with wide receivers while still being able to come up and tackle from the cornerback position. Very smooth and natural player who can also go over to the other side of the ball and make plays as a wide receiver. Scary potential, very shocked he only has offers from Valparaiso and Lake Erie, expecting many more schools to come after him. [player_tooltip player_id="29992" first="Jaylen" last="Murray-Flowers"] 5’10 165 ’21 DB Davison Multi year varsity starter at former D1 state champs Davison who were also 9-0 this year before the shutdown. Lockdown corner who can run with the fastest players and make a play on the ball in the air as he has great ball skills. His ball skills come from him also being a multi year varsity starter on offense where he can play in the slot or wide out. One of the most underrated defensive backs in the Midwest as he holds 3 offers from Northwood, Lake Erie, and Graceland. Wouldn’t be surprised if he picked up more offers soon. Davion Haynes 6’1 170 ’21 DB River Rouge Lockdown cornerback with great length who has had a great senior season at River Rouge. Recruitment is starting to heat up for him as he recently picked up offers from Davenport, Trinity International, Graceland, and Grand Valley State. Playmaker who goes up against the best receiver from the opposing team and can also be a factor in the return game. Will be a steal for whatever school that lands him. [player_tooltip player_id="80468" first="Brandon" last="Gates"] 5’9 160 ’21 DB Woodhaven Definition of heart over height, kid is a playmaker. One of the best kids in the downriver area. A cornerback who is not afraid to come up and make a hit and is a ballhawk as he had 6 interceptions in a shortened season. Currently holds an NAIA offer from Siena Heights and many roster spots from D3 schools. Could be a steal for any NAIA/D2 program willing to give him a shot. [player_tooltip player_id="29980" first="David" last="Childs"] 6’1 175 ’21 DB Grand Blanc Long lockdown cornerback with speed who plays on a great Grand Blanc program who shocked many people. Was a huge part in their upset wins over Clarkston, Lake Orion, Lapeer, and many others. One of the best available defensive backs who currently holds only 1 offer from Oklahoma Panhandle State. Expect the whole Gliac to come after him. Could be a steal for any program. [player_tooltip player_id="29797" first="Marquise" last="Henderson"] 5’7 165 ’21 DB Loyola A true 4.4 speed kid who has been on varsity for quite a while now. 3 year varsity starter who can also play slot and running back on offense and is also a threat in the return game. Smaller DB but gritty and will not back down from anyone and has the speed to play in the nickel in college. Very shocked he has no offers could be a steal for any program willing to give him a chance. Elijah Gordon 6’0 180 ’21 DB Midland 3 year varsity baller who has made 3 straight all conference teams. Good speed and size at the defensive back position can play man to man while also being a safety back deep and covering ground. A HARD HITTER when he comes down to make a tackle. Holds offers from Central State, Valparaiso, Siena Heights, Northwood, and Madonna. Wouldn’t be surprised if he picked up more offers. Travell Freeman 5’10 180 ’21 DB Henry Ford Lockdown DB from the PSL great in man to man coverage with good ball skills. Holds one offer from a junior college could be a steal for any school willing to offer. Wendell Lenton 6’0 175 ’21 DB West Bloomfield Lockdown Cornerback who plays on a great West Bloomfield team that is loaded at defensive back. Good height and speed and gets tested a lot due to teams being afraid of targeting Kentucky commit at the other cornerback position in [player_tooltip player_id="29571" first="Maxwell" last="Hairston"]. Even with all that pressure and the targets he holds his own and shuts it down. Holds offers from davenport and Aurora, expect many more to come. Tony Shumate 5’9 165 ’21 DB Stevenson Stepped up big for Stevenson this season as he also played a lot of running back due to injuries. Plays in arguably the toughest conference in the state and holds his own every week. Still no offers could be a steal for any D3/NAIA program. [player_tooltip player_id="29832" first="Joel" last="Graves"] 6’0 170 ’21 DB Cass Tech Plays on a loaded Cass Tech team and has held his own in the playoffs and during the regular season in the PSL. Also can go over to the other side and play some wide receiver. Long defensive back who is fluid and quick. Holds offers from many d3 schools could be a steal for any NAIA/D2 program willing to give him a chance.
