Kevin Snow, OT/TE, Pell City
Snow is one of the most disciplined offensive you are going to see. He plays a lot of offensive tackle. He is a 6-foot-5, 245-pound guy that can get busy on the court as well. That fact is what makes me believe he can be a tight end on the next level. He has soft hands. When I watched his basketball film I noticed he has some good athleticism. With the right training he can be a beast at tight end. However, his footwork his amazing. I love the way he gets himself in position to make good blocks. He is a guy you are going to want to keep up with.
Hunter Otwell, DE/OLB, Pell City
Otwell is very aggressive on the football field. He plays linebacker and defensive end. Otwell has long arms that he uses like a boxer uses his jab. He uses those arms to keep blockers away from his body. Otwell gets in the backfield very fast. He does not mess around with quarterbacks. I would love to see him in coverage to determine if I think he is an outside linebacker on the next level. He definitely can put a mean rush on a QB. I’ll definitely be keeping up with him.
Shane McNatt Shane McNatt 6'4" | 305 lbs | OL Hazel Green | 2024 AL , LT, Hazel Green
McNatt is a guy that you need to keep your eyes on. I’m talking to recruiters and defensive lineman. His film is full of plays where he is lifting guys off of their feet. He is a 6-foot-4, 310-pound beast. This guy reminds me of a power five prospect. He can also move around fairly well. He is a very strong prospect. McNatt does not shy away from opponents with size. He is out there holding his own against anybody. I loved watching his tape.
Roderick Favor, DL, Trinity Presbyterian
Favor gets in the backfield very fast. He is a monster when it comes to getting away from blockers. He is very aggressive at the point of attack. Favor plays a lot of interior defensive line. I think that if he continues to get bigger he will be a nice defensive tackle. He is a guy that coaches need to check out. Favor makes good sure tackles. He isn’t out there letting ball carriers slip out of his hands. He can also be a big help in the pass rush. Keep your ears open for his name.
