Bunderson is a big time defensive back prospect with elite cover skills, fluid hips in transition and is a natural peddler in space before breaking on the ball. He is a versatile corner that can play press coverage with active hands and disciplined eyes, while also able to play off and make tackles in the open field. Bunderson has a lot of playing experience, and continues to cover opposing teams best outside guys and is very consistent. He is a no brainer D-III+ player and checks in as a top player in our 2024 rankings and is a two way star.
Highlights
Knell is one of the more active third level defenders across Idaho, and can play by himself out on a island and cover receivers downfield. He has strong ball skills and recovery speed if beat downfield, and flashes good eyes in zone coverage, baiting quarterbacks into bad throws over the middle and on the outside. Knell also shows that he can help in run support and is an excellent blitzer from his corner spot, bringing a nice thump at the POA and closing quickly with open field range and explosion.
Lathen is a true ball hawk from his safety position, and shows that he can cover the entire back end of the field and is a true sideline to sideline player both when defending the pass and the run. He is a physical in the box kid that takes good angles when coming downhill and brings a nice thump at contact while also showing a high IQ when passing off receivers or working back underneath. Lathen is a well built kid that will only continue to grow and develop in college, and will fit nicely at the free safety position at the D-III+ level.
