First we will review offensive and defensive prospects that shined during the combine, athletes who appear physically ready to play college football, and conclude with positional breakdowns of the talent on-hand. These breakdowns are only from my subjective on-site observations. They do not take into consideration film, highlights, or anything else.
Incase you missed any event coverage, here are the articles currently published related to the AVC Mega Football Camp:
Montgomery football has been a beacon of consistency since its inception. Part of that consistency is from raw talent, while another part of that consistency is from buy-in from the players to their program. McFadden could be considered the poster child for this. Entering his sophomore year, McFadden yielded impressive combine stats that included a 107″ broad jump, 4.62 second pro agility, and a 4.75 second 40-yard dash. Relative to his grade-level peers who tested at the AVC Mega Football Camp these numbers totally jumped off the page. Moreover, what I witnessed McFadden do on the field proved he was more than a workout warrior. The wideout ran very clean routes with little wasted movement which culminated in sharp breaks. Understanding how and where the routes are ran was another thing McFadden did well, as well as coming back to the ball if a defender was tightly contesting him.
Randall is another prospect I have now had a few looks at in person and have data points to back it up. Athletically he demonstrates explosiveness with a 116″ broad jump and an ability to change directions quickly with a 4.19 second pro agility. Randall showcased his abilities at the PSR Combine only to follow up that live performance with another stellar one in Madison. Randall made a very impressive sliding catch that had caused the sideline spring into an uproar, as he slid like he was breaking up a double play and secured the ball for a big gainer.
Brown might not have been the biggest target in attendance, but the senior wideout packed plenty of punch. With not much of a height advantage, I witnessed Brown come down with a jump ball over a defender that had maybe 5 inches on him. By leaping early Brown was able to come back over the defender, thus negating their right to the ball. On that same play the defender wrestled and worked to strip the ball; however, Brown showcased strong hands by hauling it in and refusing to relinquish control. Later on I was impressed with how he ran routes. They were efficient to the point defenders had to respect him.
Hailing from The Empire State, Moukazis lined up mostly in the slot or the backfield. He ran a lot of one-cut routes like outs, Texas, slants, or ins. He did a nice job of leveraging his body to prevent defenders’ route to the ball, shielding them away, and ensured the ball was his by coming back to it when he ran said routes. Without a doubt I can see Moukazis being his quarterback’s safety net in the passing attack.
