<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Donnie Baggs told me about a new set of linebackers that I needed to keep my eyes on. I couldn't help myself. I had to instantly check them out. These guys will definitely see their stock rise soon. Let's check it out. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='923457' first='Kaleb' last='Burns'], Cypress Falls</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Burns is a rangy linebacker who loves to be in the backfield. He also can put pressure on the pocket from the edge. Burns has good feet and great hips. He is able to change directions well. When he notices a play he instantly reacts. Burns recently received an offer from UNLV. I expect more offers to come his way. This is going to be a big year for him. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Onyedikachi Ikoro, Alief Elsik</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Ikoro is a tall linebacker that does a good job playing from the edge. He has also picked up a lot of weight since last season. I think we are going to see him being a lot more aggressive from the line this season. Ikoro is always around the football. I think he will be more of a linebacker who plays off the ball on the next level. He is training with Donnie Baggs. His game has improved a lot this off-season. He is one to keep up with.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1421313' first='Jayveon' last='Johnson'], Clear Brooks</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Johnson is a long linebacker that can possibly play safety on the next level. He is a guy that does a great job in coverage. He is also a very violent hitter. I think Johnson is a division one talent. He has those long arms that keep blockers out of his face. I'm very anxious to see him in a game later this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Ellis Sanusi, Kempner</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Sanusi is another player that we love to see. He is a hybrid linebacker that can play safety as well. Sanusi knows how to cover his ground. You won't see him out of position a lot. He knows how to be great on the blitz. He has good hip movements. That is a major reason I think he is a safety as well. He moves like a receiver. He also runs a 4.5 in the 40.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
