At 6'4” 290 lbs. he possesses a powerful base and can overwhelm opponents at the LOS. Strength and leg drive at the contact point allows him to dominate the line and get a push in the run game. Great ability to latch on and sustain his blocks through the whistle. In pass protection he uses his hands well and shows the lateral mobility to maintain positional leverage. One to watch entering his senior year. https://twitter.com/KapelkaW/status/1468442694342963202?s=20&t=N40MZ3v0miY88TZyX_AnBA [player_tooltip player_id="155586" first="Danny" last="Meade"], OL, Emerald Ridge Dual sport athlete (football/track & field) with ideal size, length, and frame at 6'5” 280 lbs. Was effective playing both guard and tackle as a junior showing good feet and lateral movement to mirror defenders and stay in front. He's quick out of his stance to establish positioning and is a wall-off/shield type blocker that uses his hands well to stick to his blocks and fight through the whistle. Would like to see him be more of a finisher when he is the aggressor but shows good strength at the POA when facing an oncoming rush and forced to anchor down. https://twitter.com/DanMeade15/status/1475895695848534017?s=20&t=PIpYOE3GC_dqpiKsOegfzA Brady Phillips, OL, Kelso At 6'2” 275 lbs. Phillips is a pure football player capable of playing either side of the line at the college level. Possesses a well-built frame with a strong base and center of gravity. He's strong at the POA uncoiling his hips and accelerating his feet through contact to overpower opponents. A plus athlete with quick feet and good mobility to work to the second level and be an effective blocker in space. Well coached, he's a technician with his footwork and hand usage and understands how to use his leverage to his advantage. A dual sport athlete (football/wrestling) that was voted first team all-league on both sides of the ball and has seen an increase in his recruiting attention as of late. https://twitter.com/brady55phillips/status/1466879161314643970?s=20&t=gtlLIOjKcqqolIcqruqVNQ Lucas Freitas, OL, Mount Si Freitas possesses a strong foundational skillset with an impressive 6'4” 300 lb. frame that he carries well. He shows good bend/flexibility in the hips, knees, and ankles coming out of his stance with a quick and aggressive first step. Plus natural strength in both his upper and lower half to finish his blocks and flatback opponents as a downhill run blocker. An excellent one on one blocker that moves his feet to maintain his positional leverage and his athleticism to recover/adjust to defenders moves. Colleges will like his size and raw ability combined with his upside and potential as he continues to develop. https://twitter.com/LucasFr83615142/status/1459997648371400705?s=20&t=TiBi_dkkFQc91PLL44osVg Pryce Roberts, OL, Woodinville At 6'5” 275 lbs. Roberts has the length colleges look for and a well-balanced frame with good growth potential as he matures. Flashes active hands out of his stance, snapping them into position with a strong inside punch at the defenders chest. He gets good extension and shows the ability to control defenders with his hands alone. At the POA, he stays balanced and under control through contact maintaining his base/leverage. Good patience, footwork, and hands in pass protection. Strong genes, dad was former Seattle Seahawk and first round draft pick Ray Roberts. https://twitter.com/pryce_roberts/status/1460813919950295046?s=20&t=TnHlFT_EEna02o89TtoDNg <hr /> Follow <a href="https://twitter.com/JReyes_NP">Jordan Reyes</a> and <a href="https://twitter.com/PrepRedzoneWA">Prep Redzone WA </a>for more PRZ content and news for Washington High School Football.
