There are some very good prospects and several sleeper prospects that should all be getting looks for the next level. Prep Redzone Florida will always promote everybody in hopes of them getting the opportunity of playing college football at the next level.
Zay McDaniel- Wewahitchka c/o 24
5’9 165lbs
McDaniel did exactly what I thought he would, he dominated the region and rushed for 1626 yards and 13 touchdowns as a 9th grader! He also had 31 tackles on defense. McDaniel shows good balance, has a great spin move, and cutback vision, and runs with surprising power, and bounces off tacklers. The sky’s the limit for McDaniel and I wouldn’t be surprised his senior year if he’s one of the best in the state.
Alex Williams Alex Williams RB Wewahithka | 2022 FL QB/ATH- Wewahitchka
6’2 195lbs
Williams forms a devastating rushing attack with McDaniel, he quarterbacks the triple option for Wewahitchka. Last season he rushed for 1754 yards and 24 touchdowns averaging over 175 yards per game! He shows patience and vision, and has the speed to bounce runs to the numbers and take it to the house. Williams runs with good power and consistently runs through arm tackles. I’m very shocked that he doesn’t have a single offer yet.

Garrett Martin, FB- Blountstown High
5’9 215lbs
Garrett is a punch you in the mouth old school fullback that runs with power and toughness, he has good initial quickness and hits holes in a hurry, does a good job running behind his pads and delivering blows and powering through tacklers. He’s also a very good linebacker Prospect, last season he rushed for 456 yards and seven touchdowns and averaged over 6 yards per carry. He’s also very good student that has a 3.7 GPA.

Aiden Gainer Aiden Gainer LB Port St. Joe | 2022 FL , RB- Port St. Joe
5’10 195lbs
Gaynor is a nice football player, he excels on both sides of the ball, while most of his highlights or on defense he did lead Port St Joe and rushing last season with 512 yards and six touchdowns and averaged over 12 yards per carry, he had two games with over a hundred yards rushing. He’s a north-south runner that it’s the hole quickly and gets up field, I wish he had more film at running back to evaluate.

Jason Patterson, RB/ATH- Sneads High c/o 24
5’11 200lbs
Snead’s is going to have to replace one of the best running backs in the state last season and Calvin Stringer who rushed for over 5100 yards in his career. I believe Patterson has the ability to be just as effective, last season as a freshman he rushed for 643 yards and 10 touchdowns and averaged over 7 yards per carry. Patterson has very good lateral agility and quickness, has good vision and does a good job stringing together moves, he possesses smooth acceleration and burst through the hole, but also shows the ability to drop his shoulder and run with power. He has a possibility of being one of the best running back in the region this season.
