Class of 2023 Strongest Players

<strong>[player_tooltip player_id="30334" first="Brayden" last="Courser"]- </strong>Courser has one my favorite players to watch highlights of. He has outstanding play strength and his shows up in his tackling. He doesn’t just tackle defenders he wraps up and drives opposing offensive players to the ground. Courser has a strong build at 6-1, 225 lbs. He is very lean with an overall very muscular frame. Courser is max bench pressing 275 lbs and deadlifting 495 lbs. Courser’s play has gained attention from colleges. He was recently offered by Grand Valley State (<a href="https://twitter.com/brayden_courser/status/1519365143951511552?s=20&amp;t=ea1ZVIeenm4TWcrdQ8zEMg">Twitter</a>). <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="30328" first="Brennan" last="Parachek"]- </strong>Parachek is an outstanding tight end and defensive end for Dexter. He has been a guy that has been on my radar for a long time. His strength really shows up in his block shedding. His upper body strength easily allow him to get defenders off of him. Parachek has outstanding size at 6-5, 230 lbs. Parachek’s strength also shows up in his ability to break tackles with no problem. Parachek is a great football player and will look to have another outstanding year in 2022. Parachek is currently committed to Michigan State University. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="162650" first="Jalen" last="Thompson"]- </strong>Thompson play strength shows up in the run game in his ability to set the edge very effectively at the defensive end position. Thompson never gets pushed back and shows the ability to get through double teams. Thompson has unreal quickness out of his stance. He can get in the back field in a hurry. His strength shows up in his tackling and like Courser, he wraps up very well and finishes tackles. Strength is very important for the defensive end position and can play a huge role in the success of a player at the next level. Thompson certainly has the play strength necessary to play at the next level. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="30324" first="Dylan" last="Senda"]- </strong>Senda is one of the top offensive line prospects in the 2023 class. He is very good size for the position at 6-5, 270 lbs. Senda uses his leg strength to drive defenders back on nearly every play. Send has powerful hands and there are  plays when he gets a hold of defenders he can drive them directly into the ground and they will have no chance of making a tackle. Senda has the athleticism to block linebackers in the second level. I like Senda’s game a lot and he has a chance to not only do great things next year but at the Division-1 college level as well. <strong>[player_tooltip player_id="121426" first="Luke" last="Zanotti"]- </strong>Zanotti does a great job combining great leverage and great play strength to push defenders back. The upper body strength is on full display on almost every play. He does a great job of locking out his arms so defenders can’t get around him. Like Senda, there are plays where Zanotti gets a hold of a defender and then takes them directly out of the play. Zanotti’s strength is very apparent in pass protection. He gets into a good athletic stance and never gets pushed back. Zanotti has been one of my favorite guys to watch. His coaches should be very happy to have him back this upcoming season as he will play a huge part in his team’s offensive success.
