Tyler Lockhart Tyler Lockhart 6'3" | 200 lbs | LB Winona | 2025 State MS
Lockhart had 93 tackles and 22 TFL. He is a long rangy player who will need to add weight to his frame. When watching the films you see a high motor guy. Uses his speed to make up for lack of power. Lockhart is quick off the line of scrimmage which makes it hard on any lineman to get a hand on him. He can play in zone cover when asked. Tyler was invited to the ARMY combine in December and had great results. This off-season he will look to add weight. He makes good tackles and backs down from nobody. Would love to see him at some camps.

Graham is a kid that is an athlete. We will take a look at his DB presence. He had 54 tackles 3 interceptions with 1 going for 101 yds and 2 force fumbles. Graham has good instinct and ball awareness. Not afraid to come up and make the tackle. Plays the game fast has the talent and speed to play D1 ball. Only knock is his size but he should grow a few inches over the summer. He can man a team best receivers has not reached the shut down corner title just yet but he can hold his own. Graham is taking part in 7 vs 7 that should help with his coverage ability.He displayed a one handed interception his last game.

Felder is a top 10 DB in the state. He is coming into his own and had 17 pass break-up. This athlete knows how to handle himself. Not afraid to come down and make the hit. This young man has a lot of upside. He has great hip and excellent ball awareness. He can play any coverage asked of him already has the size to play at the next level. I can see a D1 player but as of now he holds 3 juco offers. He should be one of the most polished DB in his class when it is all said and done.
Highlights
Jakamoron Chandler
Jakamoron Chandler
Chandler had 94 tackles on the season. He is a physical type of player who loves contact. Chandler is a solid linebacker who is working on improving his game. He is on the smaller side for his position but he brings the punch to back it up. Got plenty of time to improve and should be one of C/O 2025 top players. He is a hard worker. He has the speed to track down the ball carrier.
Doug Jones
Doug Jones
Jones is one of those players that just finds the ball. He had 160 tackles with 12 TFL. When watching the film he is always around the ball. He can slider through traffic to make a tackle. Jones will drop in coverage and lay the wood on the receiver. He is one of the more athletic linebackers in his class. Jones is fearless when it comes to tackling. He has good hips and awareness. He is athletic enough to play all the linebackers spots. He loves to make big time plays.
