Senior Defensive-back Watchlist

We are taking a look at the defensive side of the ball this week for the senior class. Today we are covering the top defensive backs in the state. These are prospects who have earned their way on our rankings and are players to watch this season. Some of these prospects could have a break-out year and end up on a lot of colleges recruiting boards. Let’s dive right into it and see who the top senior defensive backs are to watch this season. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; [player_tooltip player_id="92878" first="Jaylon" last="Burke"] | 6’1" 180 lbs | DB | Forrest City | 2022 Jaylon flat out is a football player. He can play both sides of the ball very well and is a lockdown on the defensive side of the ball. He shows he can be a tough, physical corner and come up to lay the wood on receivers. Has the requisite height for college and the pros. He should be a special player to watch this season and at the next level. https://twitter.com/EarlGill10/status/1404309426711019521?s=20 &nbsp; [player_tooltip player_id="92760" first="Troy" last="Wiseman"] | 5’10" 150 lbs | DB | Conway | 2022 Troy shows some amazing awareness and ability to track the ball and attack it out there on the field. He shows he can be really good covering against the pass in press or floated off the receiver. He can also play run very well and he should be one to watch out for this coming up season. https://twitter.com/troywiseman03/status/1325862812812447750?s=20 &nbsp; [player_tooltip player_id="133646" first="Jaxon" last="Taylor"] | 6’0" 165 lbs | DB | Fayetteville | 2022 Jaxon could be one who moves up our list this season. He is a good DB with good size and height. He shows he can cover the pass very well with a good backpedal and a good change of direction speed that gives him the ability to break on the ball. He should be a prospect to keep your eye on and one that you could hear a lot about this coming up season. &nbsp; &nbsp; [player_tooltip player_id="134840" first="Javion" last="Ware"] | 6’0" 160 lbs | DB | Morrilton | 2022 Javons got the size, the speed, and the ability to make big plays happen on the ball. I really like this defensive back, I think he is severely underrated and could end up surpassing a bunch of guys on our rankings. Javons a good tough, physical corner that could be special this season. &nbsp; https://twitter.com/Javionware1/status/1330289426665238529?s=20 <h4>Honorable Mentions</h4> &nbsp; [player_tooltip player_id="135318" first="Quade" last="Curtis"] | 5’11" 170 lbs | DB | Bentonville West | 2022 &nbsp; [player_tooltip player_id="135995" first="Braden" last="Oliver"] | 6’0" 185 lbs | DB | Searcy | 2022 &nbsp; &nbsp; [player_tooltip player_id="140506" first="Tyrell" last="Lambert"] | 6’2" 170 lbs | DB | Hot Springs | 2022 &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;
