<div id="contentsContainer" class="style-scope qowt-page"> <div id="contents" class="style-scope qowt-page"> With the 2022 just a few months away, I’m doing a summer prospect analysis for running backs from every Classification/District/Region in Florida. There are a lot of young talented prospects and several sleeper prospects that could start 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. No other prep site brings you more prospects to check out than Prep Redzone Florida!         Dennis Palmer- Jensen Beach High c/o 24 5’10 185lbs Palmer is an under the radar back out of Jensen Beach that was very impressive in the spring game. He was last season’s offensive MVP for the Falcons. Palmer shows nice speed and quick cutting ability to create plays and escape into the open field, runs with good power and shows very good contact balance. I expect him to be one of the best backs in the district this season. Quality player and prospect that coaches need to check out ASAP. </div> </div> <div id="contentsContainer" class="style-scope qowt-page"> <div id="contents" class="style-scope qowt-page"> Film: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/14720262/Dennis-Palmer">https://www.hudl.com/profile/14720262/Dennis-Palmer</a>   Saleem Felder- Port St. Lucie High c/o 23 Felder is a very talented back for Port St Lucie, he had an outstanding 2021 after rushing for 1,166 yards, averaged 7.5 yards per carry with 18 rushing touchdowns. You also had 4 catches for 23 yards and a touchdown reception. He averaged 129 yards rushing a game for the Jaguars. Elder shows very good burst and acceleration through the hole, consistently breaks the first tackle and runs with a low center of gravity, flashes very good lateral agility to make defenders miss in tight quarters. He will be a player of the Jaguars rely on heavily in 2022.

His coach singled him out as a player to keep an eye on this season. He looks to have had a solid spring and will look to build off of it going into the fall. He’s had a busy summer showing up to camps at FAU and UCF. He’s one cut runner that hits the hole quickly and can run with power, shows very good vision and agility to be able to bounce to the outside and the speed to make big plays. I expect him to have a very big season for the Bulldogs in 2022. Film: <a href="https://www.hudl.com/profile/16556412/Omar-Mejia">https://www.hudl.com/profile/16556412/Omar-Mejia</a> </div> </div>
