The first thing that jumps out about Meek’s game is his ability to throw the football downfield with touch and accuracy. I like how Meeks is not afraid to sit tall in the pocket and wait for receivers to come open. He has good timing on slant routes and screen passes as well. Jaeden Meeks has shown he can make defenders miss in the pocket and scramble when needed to pick up yards. He has the ability to throw on the run with accruacry also. Meeks has good size for the position at 6-3, 185lbs and he uses it to his advantage to help see open receivers down field. I like his game a lot and you can tell by watching his highlights that his play has helped elevate his team’s play this season.
#32 Jamarlin McKinney | LB | 2024 | Benton Harbor | Hudl
Mckinney has good play speed and does a great job of taking angles and accelerating to tackle ball carriers. He does a good job of wrapping up and finishing tackles. McKinney has good quickness and play strength and will combine these abilities to get off of blockers in a hurry. I love how he will relentlessly pursue ball carriers downfield even when the play goes to the opposite side he lines up at. Jamarlin McKinney was all over the field against Lawton and finished the game with over 20 tackles.
#1 Davionte Tasker | CB/WR | 2023 | Benton Harbor | Hudl
Tasker is a very good athlete who can easily make defenders miss at wide receiver. Tasker moves laterally very well and does a good job in zone coverage. He is a very good tackler and has no fear of taking on blockers and making tackles. Tasker has fluid hips and can quickly turn and run to go make plays on the football. He has good hands not only at the receiver position but good hands to intercept passes. They will put Tasker in the back field and run him between the tackles. His strength allows him to break tackles and fall forward for extra yardage.
#10 Nicholas Finn | LB/RB | 2024 | Buchanan | Hudl
Finn does a great job of pursuing ball carriers and delivering big hits. He is a good open field tackler who does a good job of breaking down and staying in a good athletic position to wrap up ball carriers. Finn is a good running back who can finish runs for touchdowns at the goal line. Finn has good burst and acceleration as well and can pickup positive yards quickly on carriers to the outside.
#4 Jamari Brown | CB/WR | 2024 | Buchanan | Hudl
Brown has has very quick back pedal and can drop back into coverage quickly. He has good play speed and can turn and run with receivers who are running deep routes. Brown is a good open field tackler and can fly up and make textbook tackles. Brown has good ball skills and can haul in tipped passes for interceptions. I like his game a lot and look forward to watching him continue to give receivers a hard time with his coverage skills.
