[player_tooltip player_id='330454' first='Eli' last='Davidson'] 2025 Linebacker Dixon High School: [player_tooltip player_id='330454' first='Eli' last='Davidson'] was a standout among the linebackers at the combine on Saturday. At 5'10" and 205 pounds, he has a stout build, suitable for being an in-the-box type backer. He moved well in drills, showcasing some key footwork for the position.   [player_tooltip player_id='1202719' first='Braden' last='Carlson'] 2025 Quarterback Grayslake Central: There was some really good talent in the quarterback group at the IL combine. [player_tooltip player_id='1202719' first='Braden' last='Carlson'] emerged as the top quarterback in the group for the class of 2025, showcasing solid fundamentals and an accurate arm.   [player_tooltip player_id='352235' first='Jason' last='Carey'] 2025 Running Back Richtownship: [player_tooltip player_id='352235' first='Jason' last='Carey'] showed impressive shiftiness in the open field drills. At 5'6", he has a lower center of gravity, making him hard to tackle. He is a true scat back with the ability to be a weapon out of the backfield as a pass catcher as well.   [player_tooltip player_id='705477' first='Jerrell' last='Benson'] 2025 Wide Receiver Lincoln Park High School: [player_tooltip player_id='705477' first='Jerrell' last='Benson'] caught my eye early on with his explosiveness in drills. That carried over to the 1-on-1 portion of camp, showcasing his ability to win against man coverage. Benson has above-average footwork, allowing him to create separation in his routes.   Prince Barnes III 2025 Tight End Jacobs High School: Prince Barnes is a big-bodied athlete who moved well on Saturday. At 6'3" and 245 pounds, I really like him as an H-Back at the next level. He shows the ability to be strong in the run game as a blocker and a versatile pass catcher. Barnes, still looking for his first offer, shouldn't have to wait much longer once coaches see him at camp.
