Trench Talk Thursday; Slept On 2024 Prospects

Preston Smith
Preston Smith 6'3" | 275 lbs | OL | 2024
MS
Lionel Williams
Lionel Williams 6'3" | 205 lbs | LB | 2024
MS
<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This class has some studs that we need to discuss a lot more. These guys have been doing their thing this season. It is time these guys get some shine. Let's check it out.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='910426' first='Lionel' last='Williams'] </strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I was very excited when I watched his film. He is a stud that knows how to use his hands. Williams is going to be an edge player on the next level. He is a 6-foot-4, 205-pound guy that gets busy in the trenches. Williams is a player that applies a lot of pressure on quarterbacks. He has a quick release that makes offensive linemen nervous. He has 14.5 sacks in five games. His length is going to give him an advantage of most of the people he faces in the trenches. He also knows how to make tackles in open field situations. This is a guy to know.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Christopher Rogers</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rogers is a player that coaches need to watch. He is a guy that may have to go the junior college route first. If he does, I can see him developing into a division one prospect. He is a 6-foot-4, 280-pound guy that is going to be a stud in the trenches. He does a great job of getting down the line when it is time to block. Rogers is a player to keep up with.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Lebron Edmond </strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Edmond is a beast on the field. He knows how to get busy. There are not many guys that can handle him in the trenches. He is going to be a player that sees his stock rise during this season. Edmond is a big boy that has some great athleticism. Edmond is a guy that also has some long arms. He is not a player that allows guys to get easy blocks on him.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1119048' first='Preston' last='Smith'] </strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Smith is a monster from Grenada that coaches need to know. He will be playing in the Mississippi Alabama Game after the season. Smith is very strong and he is a player that understands his assignments. He does a great job of keeping a good base on the line of scrimmage. I think he is going to be a guard on the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

This class has some studs that we need to discuss a lot more. These guys have been doing their thing this season. It is time these guys get some shine. Let's check it out.
