#PRZTN Stock Up Performers: Week 10

With another week of high school football action in the books, it's time to visit the Volunteer State to highlight some of the most impactful playmakers on both sides of the ball that made their presence known on the field during last week's slate of contests. These guys took their games to another level in Week 10, pushing their recruiting stocks further while establishing themselves as top tier players.    At the top of my list of notable performers is [player_tooltip player_id='480743' first='Torin' last='McAfee'], a 6-foot-1, 145-pound defensive back at Knoxville Central High School. McAfee and the Bobcats picked up a 41-33 victory over Heritage last week. What stands out most about McAfee is his disruptiveness in coverage, using his arm strength to contest receivers on passes. Another aspect of McAfee's playstyle that impresses is his ability to read the quarterback in the backfield, his ability to attack the ball in the air and his breakaway speed. McAfee proved his field awareness and playmaking ability with a significant pick-six last week, blasting into the endzone untouched by the defense.     <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2MDdGu">Tape:</a>    I am additionally impressed with [player_tooltip player_id='467211' first='Corbin' last='Laisure'], a 6-foot-5, 220-pound tight end at Sullivan-East High School. Laisure and the Patriots are coming off a 47-28 win over West Greene this past week. What impresses me most about Laisure is his quick execution and outstanding footwork, showing off his ability to turn around for the quick catch as well as his ability to break free of the defense from along the edge. Laisure also made a difference in the endzone, proving he can elevate off the ground to grab touchdown passes. On the Patriots' defensive line, Laisure can muscle past the offense and apply pressure. I also like how Laisure can stop the rush.     <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2MDauy">Tape:</a>    Claiming the number three spot on my list is [player_tooltip player_id='795560' first='Austin' last='Howard'], a 6-foot-2, 210-pound linebacker at Bartlett High School. Howard and the Panthers recorded a 41-0 blowout win over Cordova last week. Howard contributes excellent defensive explosiveness, showcasing his ability to muscle past the defense and take down the quarterback. Another aspect of Howard that stands out is his ability to read the quarterback and both stop the rush and pick up sacks. I also like how Howard capitalizes on openings in the pocket, stunning the offense with his ability to blast the quarterback behind the line of scrimmage. Howard also impresses me with his ability to make crucial tackles on quick passes.     <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2ME4eJ">Tape:</a>    Another skilled prospect to watch for is [player_tooltip player_id='611895' first='Jakyri' last='McClure'], a 5-foot-10, 185-pound running back at Mt. Pleasant High School. McClure and the Tigers claimed a 35-21 victory over Hickman County this past week. McClure is so impactful on the ground due to his electric speed and durable edge, breaking tackles in the pocket to escape into the open field. I also like McClure's ability to pick up speed from along the edge and stay on his feet under pressure. Another aspect of McClure that stands out is his footwork and ability to dodge contact as he forces his way into the endzone.     <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2ME5YJ">Tape:</a>    Coming in at number five on my list is [player_tooltip player_id='277774' first='Damian' last='McWilliams'], a 6-foot-0, 175-pound athlete at Polk County High School. McWilliams and the Wildcats picked up a close 29-28 victory over Sweetwater last week. McWilliams impresses me with his footwork and ability to juke out the defense, showing off his quickness and ability to avoid contact. McWilliams also stands out with his breakaway speed, escaping the entire defense as he returned a kick all the way to the house for a touchdown. McWilliams also showcased excellent execution down the stretch as a receiver, utilizing bursts of speed to escape the defense in the backfield and put his team on the scoreboard.     <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2MDZVS">Tape:</a>    Also worth mentioning is [player_tooltip player_id='362089' first='Timi' last='Williams'], a 6-foot-2, 210-pound linebacker at Rockvale High School. Williams and his teammates are coming off a 27-22 win over Blackman this past week. Williams is a strong defensive presence in the pocket, showing off his ability to spot the rush and disrupt the offense on the ground. Williams also proved his ability to apply heavy pressure off the snap, knock the ball out of the air and consistently sack the quarterback. Williams also impresses me with his awareness and ability to attack the ball, hauling in a crucial interception last week.     <a href="http://www.hudl.com/v/2MEWMg">Tape:</a>
