<p>There were some guys out there holding it down for their teams. Playing good defense in 7v7 isn't an easy task. These guys showed up this weekend on a mission. This tournament has some of the best prospects in the nation. Let's check out the defensive guys.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='115452' first='Jason' last='Mitchell'], DB, 2024, St John Bosco</strong></h2>   <p>Mitchell is a very polished DB that plays with confidence. He isn't going to make many mistakes. Mitchell handles receivers very well. He is great in coverage and has good hips. He is a tall guy that does great against shorter receivers. That's something we don't see often. Mitchell uses his length to his advantage. He breaks very on short routes when he is playing a few yards off his receiver.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='321487' first='Jadon' last='Perlotte'], Burford (GA), 2025</strong></h2>   <p>Perlotte is a stud that talks a lot of trash. He is able to back his trash talking. He has some good hips with the ability to play multiple positions on defense on the high school level. Perlotte has recently committed to Georgia. The 6-foot-4, 205-pound LB has been a fan of their for a long time. That's why he made this commitment as a sophomore. </p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Gabriel Williams, LB, 2024, St Vincent Pallette </strong></h2>   <p>Williams is a rangy guy that knows how to cover. He is going to be an outside linebacker on the next level. I became an instant fan when I saw this young man. He has good speed. Williams moves very well from side to side. He has the range to also help out on the edge. He is a power five prospect who does nothing but step up to the plate when he is on the field.</p>   <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='282738' first='Noah' last='Mikhail'], Bonita, 2025, LB</strong></h2>   <p>Mikhail is a California king who is very solid on the field. He was a stud playing defense this weekend. He has good hips with very decent speed. Mikhail is a guy that can play inside or outside. He has a wide wingspan that helps him deflect passes. He moves his feet very well. I was very glad to see this young man in person.</p>
