It's no wonder he has D1 schools coming after him with his athleticism and skill set. He tops the list of pro agility shuttle times with a 4.06 which is great quickness for a linebacker to have. Look for the sophomore to have even more schools come calling in the summer and following his junior season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='185609' first='Joseph' last='Federer'] | 6'0" 187 | QB | 2024 | Parkway West |</strong><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":740751,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepredzone.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2023/03/Elite-Football-Combine-2023-03-17-105.jpg?w=400" alt="" class="wp-image-740751" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>A name you keep seeing among the top performers and testers is the junior quarterback from Parkway West. Joseph has been a good athlete since his freshman year, but he really had a breakout season after transferring from Marquette, and showed he is one of the top athletes not only among quarterbacks in the area and state, but also overall. I look for colleges to start paying attention soon and over the course of the rest of the year. He came in 2nd overall with a 4.15 pro agility time. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='326631' first='Donivan' last='Taylor'] | 5'9" 170 | RB/CB | 2025 Rock Bridge | </strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":741032,"width":398,"height":417,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://prepredzone.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2023/03/IMG_2221-2-1.jpg?w=400" alt="" class="wp-image-741032" width="398" height="417" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Another top performer who attended and just stood out in every category was the super athletic sophomore from mid-Missouri. Donivan was impressive both in testing and with his skills throughout the combine. In the pro agility he was again near the top with a 4.16 showing. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='126277' first='Kendall' last='Gurley'] | 5'8" 165 | WR/CB | 2024 | Francis Howell |</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:image {"id":741805,"sizeSlug":"large","linkDestination":"none"} --> <figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://prepredzone.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2023/03/Elite-Football-Combine-2023-03-17-082.jpg?w=400" alt="" class="wp-image-741805" /></figure> <!-- /wp:image --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Gurley is not just fast but he is also very quick and showed it during his junior season. So it was no surprise that he was among the top performers in the pro agility shuttle and rounded out the top four overall with a time of 4.19.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:separator --> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity" /> <!-- /wp:separator --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Best of the Rest </em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Aerion Williams DB 2024 St. Charles West - 4.22</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Nathan Kell WR/DB 2024 St. Francis Borgia - 4.22</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='326731' first='Devin' last='Holt'] WR 2025 Rock Bridge - 4.25</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Tristan Graham QB 2024 Francis Howell Central - 4.25 </em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Ivan Marin WR 2024 Wentzville Liberty - 4.25 </em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='326611' first='Preston' last='Brown'] QB 2025 Hillsboro - 4.3</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='179190' first='Colin' last='Griffin'] TE 2025 De Smet - 4.3</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1117607' first='Hoyt' last='Gregory'] QB 2025 North Point - 4.31</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='263502' first='Ryver' last='Peppers'] RB 2025 Fort Osage - 4.31 </em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>Marcus Burks RB 2025 Hazelwood East - 4.34</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='1118461' first='Ty' last='Griggsby'] DB 2025 Troy Buchanan - 4.35</em></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
