When talking about overall hotbeds of talent in the state of Florida, Palm Beach County needs to be right in the middle of that conversation.
While Miami-Dade and Broward Counties are way out ahead of anyone in the nation for annually producing volumes of football talent, Palm Beach County is right there – with enough big-time football talent to warrant that spotlight that is starting to shine in a major way.
With a few powers on the way back to the top – along with some tremendous coaching coming to the region, this is now a place that college coaches will be spending some time – and coming away with elite prospects that in the past may not have been able to play at a Power-5 level. Not the impressive numbers that are emerging today.
As we look at some of the players in the Class of 2022, Palm Beach boasts some amazing football talent. Some have been on the radar screen for years, and that is indeed a good thing.
Here are 5 players to continue to watch:
Brandyn Butler Brandyn Butler WR Delray Beach American Heritage | 2022 FL , WR, Delray American Heritage. One of the elite prospects in the class, here is one of the area’s top receivers. Last season, he accounted for 613 yards on 41 catches (14.9 yards per catch). Butler finished with six touchdowns, including two on punt returns. College coaches loved what he brings to the table – and many who have watched him perform – strongly believe his best years are ahead.

Zo’Marion Harper, QB, Belle Glade Glades Central. From the first time we watched this young man play last season, there was simply no getting around that he was special – and was the perfect leader on offense to get the Raiders back in the mix, and has certainly done that. In six games, he threw for 1,123 yards and 16 touchdowns in just six games. Excited to watch this talented football player in 2021.

Markel King, Athlete, Lake Vista Park Vista. In a year that was cut short because of the pandemic, and many players never truly getting into the flow of things, this 5-8, 170-pounder is indeed one of those versatile football players. One that plays on both sides of the ball. Whether he’s running the ball and adding balance to the offense, using his speed – or performing on defense, this is certainly a prospect to keep an eye on. He is primed for a huge 2021.

Marquis Lymon Marquis Lymon 5'9" | 180 lbs | DB Delray Beach Atlantic | 2022 State FL , DB, Delray Beach Atlantic. This is a true talent who has been on the radar screen for nearly four years – turning heads during the 7-on-7 season and then translating it over to the football field, where he has been one of the best in Florida. This is an elite football player, who is regarded by many as a “4-star” recruit, holding offers from Tennessee and Miami to name a few. He had five interceptions and rushed for 400 yards on just 22 carries in a very short season, He is the real deal!

Xavier Scott, Ahlete, Palm Beach Gardens Dwyer. Like so many of these gifted football prospects who can help teams in so many ways, here is a very impressive football player that head coach McKinley Rolle and this program will rely on in 2021. A two-way standout, he continues to grab college coaches’ attention – recently picking up a local FAU offer – as well as a Power 5 offer from Pittsburgh. In a shortened season, he still managed to have nearly 500 rushing yards, while holding receivers to very few big plays from his position in the secondary. Scott is a stellar basketball player for the Panthers as well.
