April Prospect Tour: Best Overall Testers (Defense)

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The prospect tour earlier this month showcased a ton of rising talent! The defensive side of the ball had a lot of real good testers and guys that impressed throughout competition. This article will highlight 8 of the best testers of the day! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:table --> <figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Defensive Backs</strong></td><td>40</td><td>Shuttle</td><td>Broad</td></tr><tr><td>[player_tooltip player_id='200351' first='Emil' last='Burton'] </td><td>4.71</td><td>4.47</td><td>8'2</td></tr><tr><td>[player_tooltip player_id='566975' first='David' last='Williams'] </td><td>4.97</td><td>4.53</td><td>8'4</td></tr></tbody></table></figure> <!-- /wp:table --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='200351' first='Emil' last='Burton'] and [player_tooltip player_id='566975' first='David' last='Williams'] were the best testers out of a light DB group. Emil was the quickest out of the group, with real smooth change of direction, and the best 40 out of the DB group. David looked good as well, with the furthest broad jump of any in addition to placing 2nd in the shuttle. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:table --> <figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Defensive Linemen</strong></td><td>40</td><td>Shuttle</td><td>Broad</td></tr><tr><td>Trayvion Hunter </td><td>4.61</td><td>4.63</td><td>9'5</td></tr><tr><td>[player_tooltip player_id='437922' first='Willie' last='Fletcher'] Jr.</td><td>4.88</td><td>4.72</td><td>8'8</td></tr></tbody></table></figure> <!-- /wp:table --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='437922' first='Willie' last='Fletcher'] came in and tested out of the park. For a 6'2, 226lb prospect, these are great numbers. Willie was explosive, and it's obvious why he's considered to be one of the best in his class. Trayvion Hunter was another standout in the camp. A taller and skinnier lineman, he took the Gold in all three categories for D-Linemen. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:table --> <figure class="wp-block-table"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Linebackers</strong></td><td>40</td><td>Shuttle</td><td>Broad</td></tr><tr><td>[player_tooltip player_id='652817' first='Gabe' last='Amid']</td><td>4.69</td><td>4.53</td><td>9'4</td></tr><tr><td>[player_tooltip player_id='274194' first='Nick' last='Waszczenko']</td><td>5</td><td>4.65</td><td>9'2</td></tr><tr><td>[player_tooltip player_id='748906' first='Luke' last='Teachout']</td><td>4.63</td><td>4.37</td><td>9'7</td></tr><tr><td>[player_tooltip player_id='80935' first='Tyler' last='Dosh']</td><td>4.82</td><td>4.53</td><td>9'2</td></tr></tbody></table></figure> <!-- /wp:table --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As you can see, we had a pretty impressive linebacker group! I've got to say, [player_tooltip player_id='652817' first='Gabe' last='Amid']'s numbers really jump off the page for me. Throughout the whole camp, Gabe was working his tail off, making great plays, and having a ton of fun. [player_tooltip player_id='274194' first='Nick' last='Waszczenko'] had an overall great day as well, with good numbers and some great individual plays. [player_tooltip player_id='748906' first='Luke' last='Teachout'] from Parma Western had the most surprising day of testing out of everyone, and [player_tooltip player_id='80935' first='Tyler' last='Dosh'] was his usual dominant self with good numbers. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
