On Saturday, we held our second PrepRedzone Pennsylvania showcase event at Spooky Nook in Manheim. It was a tremendous turnout with aelite talent from around the state making their way to “Amish Country” to put on their talents for the PrepRedzone Pennsylvania staff in attendance as well as a collection of Division II coaches. We of course thank all the coaches who made it out to the event.
With that, I had the pleasure of watching the defensive line in our first session closely and here are few of my gamechangers at the position group.
Blidi was phenomenal from start to finish and he actually had an opportunity to win the MVP at both defensive line and linebacker, splitting his reps at both. His name is definitely one that was at the top of the list when thinking about most impressive players regardless of position. He’s most likely a linebacker at the next level at about 6-foot-0 and 220-pounds currently but he has a great pass rushing skillset and has a great burst and speed to his game, recording a 4.5 forty-yard dash. Just a very impressive player from start to finish on Saturday that had our staff and the coaches who were watching him closely buzzing. Once he commits to a position full time, he has a chance to be a gamechanger at that position.
Highlights
I was very impressed with Biery’s performance on Saturday – The Northampton defensive lineman has great size at 6-foot-3 and 255-pounds and shows very good athleticism as well. Quick burst, good hand fighting skills and bend to his game. He was impressive throughout the day and his name will rise up our rankings next time we have an update.
Highlights
Really love the potential out of this Unionville defensive end. 6-foot-4, 220-pounds, he’s a very projectable player with that frame and size. He also had a 77″ wingspan. Has a quality get off, and shows solid athleticism overall. A bit of fine tuning to his game and there is a lot of upside here. Was highly impressive in our one-on-one session, winning a large share of his reps and showing a great bend to his game as well.
Highlights
Khalil was impressive throughout the day but especially in our one-on-ones where if I recall correctly, he may not have lost a single rep. He may have had a stalemate but there were no straight up losses against our very strong group of offensive linemen. He’s a defensive tackle at the next level most likely but he has quality size at 6-foot-1 and 241-pounds, a good burst to his game off the line as well. Did a great job in our one-on-one reps with several impressive victories. Showed great upper body strength and a won’t quit motor as well.
Highlights
Christian Bryant

Man I was really impressed by Christian Bryant yesterday in the camp. The 2025 defensive tackle who we have listed at 6-foot-3, 290-pounds shows a quality burst and a good deal of athleticism for his size. He showed very good upper body strength as well and had a very good showing in our one-on-one portion of the day. I’m waiting to receive our updated measurables and will update this post when we get it. But coaches, put this 2025 prospect on your radar.
Honorable mention:
Nick Roders – Archbishop Ryan: Nick was right on the outside of our top five as well, very impressive performance on Saturday. Great size at 6-foot-5, 240-pounds. Good bend to his game with a nice get off as well.
