Jaydin Dildy
Jaydin Dildy
A physical offensive tackle with a mean streak to him is how I would best describe Dildy. He is coming along nicely standing at 6’4 and 284 lbs., the potential for him to play FBS football is coming. Dildy’s strength in his arms are what can make defensive lineman stay up all night, once he has you locked in you are in trouble. His footwork is coming along and he just finished up wrestling for King’s Fork this winter which should only benefit him more. Everything is almost there for this young man the fact that he is constantly working to make himself better he knows that too. He is a big time sleeper for the 2024 class, I expect FBS and FCS schools to come knocking on his door soon!

Mark Fails
Mark Fails
Fails possesses great quickness of the snap and closing speed making it a pain for offenses to work around him. The Hawks have an excellent pass rusher returning for 2023, Fails plays the game with a high football IQ. Most of power comes from his legs and you can see it on tape that he can squat nearly 400 lbs. For the Fall I would to see him add strength to his upper body and add about 15-20 pounds of muscle. If that is achieved I fully believe that Division 2 schools will be pining for his services.

Lance Watters
Lance Watters
I listed Watters as an athlete which he is, but I firmly believe he will be playing FCS level football as a Wide Receiver. Look at his tape watch how he goes up and gets any pass thrown his way, he is an expert at high-pointing the football. Makes sense that he nabbed 12 touchdown receptions last year and close to 700 yards receiving, Watters has a bright future. Defensively he is a solid defensive back and his exceptional hands make the transition for him pretty easy. I would not want to game plan against him this coming season, he may have close to 1,000 yards receiving.

Jacob JB Brown
Jacob JB Brown
A bigger sized linebacker who has been clocked in a 4.7 40 that brings the pain on every hit he applies. Brown has changed positions a couple of times in his career and whether it be on offense or defense (DT to LB) he has excelled. It should be no surprise to anyone watching JB that he has made the transition to linebacker, he currently has a 3.6 GPA and carries his great classroom work onto the field. No matter where he is lined up for the 2023 season, this young man makes plays!

Cameron Joachim
Cameron Joachim
Joachim is going to come on strong and surprise a lot of people in 2024, I am confident in his abilities. A quick for Grassfield the rising Junior is starting to attract the interest of both FCS and FBS schools already. He is good one cut and go running back and he is stout defensive back were he may be playing his college ball at but will see. Joachim may lead the Southeastern district in rushing this season if giving the opportunities.
