Best Unsigned Seniors Post-NSD

National Signing Day has come and gone. Hundreds of seniors across the great state of Wisconsin put pen to paper to make one of their goals a reality. It was so great to see all the years of dedication and hard work paying off. This Class has so much greatness ahead of them both on the field and off. I can't wait to follow along as a lifelong fan. However, not everyone crossed the Ts and dotted the Is yesterday. There are still a lot of talented kids making decisions and weighing options. So we are here to take a look at several of them. Coaches, don't turn to the focus 100% to the Class of 2026 quite yet.    This is an awesome chance to add a serious impact player in the defensive trenches. Terrell has the size and mass needed to win at the next level. The 6'5" 275 lbs senior does well at using his length to maintain separation from OL and also does a great job of using his hands to disengage and get after the all. Despite the sheer size of McRae, the senior brings athleticism to the trenches as he is able to slide laterally to avoid blocks or move from gap to gap to meet the ball for the tackle. The senior also brings the strength needed to control the line of scrimmage and not surrender any ground against the run game. Check out one of the top available defensive players.      Turner is an intriguing edge defender. While 6'2" is a solid frame, where he really draws in the eyes is with his 6'5" wingspan. The senior edge rusher is an effective pass rusher. He has the agility and balance to be able to make OTs miss 1 on 1 as he slips past with his lateral cuts. The senior takes on kick out blocks really well, standing up the blocker and getting off them to make the tackle without losing contain. As he continues to add size at the next level he would be able to start off as a pass rusher and increase his impact from there.      One of the most versatile linemen in WI is Mosinee's OL & DL impact player, [player_tooltip player_id='1251520' first='Jackson' last='Lindell']. I love this kid's athleticism from his speed to his quickness of the line and the power he can create from that athleticism. In the run game on offense, Lindell instantly closes on his DL and runs his legs right through his man, barely losing any momentum after contact. It is impressive watching the 265 lbs athlete on defense too where he spent a lot of time as a stand up edge defender. Jackson's body control is advanced and allows him to make a lot of plays in space. Along with the athleticism, Jackson is a violent player who punishes opponents and has the mentality to finish his blocks angrily. Check out the steal!      Another massive steal in the Class of 2025 is DL [player_tooltip player_id='685915' first='Terron' last='McCall']. He has a sufficient frame that is loaded up with explosive burst. Terron dominates with his super high motor, range, and leverage. Throughout the tape those traits shine as he makes plays. Terron's use of leverage while rushing the passer stands out from the crowd. He has a very effective long arm that drives OTs into the backfield. McCall's range allows him to get out in space or chase down tackles from behind. Between his athleticism, technique, and effort there is definitely plenty to work with at the next level here. Check him out!      Noah is one of the more slept on athletes in this Class. He has been an impact player for St. Mary's Springs for a few years now. Noah looks the part at 6'2" 220 lbs and plays with the violence needed to set the tone between the tackles. Noah does a great job against the run game. He is quick to attack downhill and close on the ball. His burst and speed give him the ability to fly through gaps untouched and he runs through his tackles, delivering big hits. Noah has the range required to thrive at the next level, chasing down plays sideline to sideline. Give the senior a look. He is a hidden gem.      The workhorse out of Grantsburg is still out there on the hunt for his college home. The 6' 205 lbs senior has the frame to match his workload from 2024. Ian brings a very well rounded game. He can carry the ball between the tackles, break tackles with his contact balance and leg drive. The senior is able to get out of the backfield and catch the ball, then get up field and make plays in space. Burkman also has enough speed to crush a defense when he gets into the open field or outside of contain. Ian proved he was a productive playmaker in 2024 while helping Grantsburg make a run to a State Championship Game appearance. Check out the highlights from the senior RB.

WR is where I like his projection best. At 6'3" 190 lbs, Hudson has the size to win out wide. He creates space with his power and length, boxing out DBs and overpowering them to win 50/50 balls. Hudson is just as physical after the catch where he is able to run over DBs or LBs and pile up yards after contact. The long striding ATH also has the speed to create the big play. However they could get him the ball in 2024 they did and he rewarded the offense with plenty of big plays. Come check out the senior steal.      Reed is our final steal of the day. We were introduced to him when he put up a huge game vs West De Pere with a 2 INT performance. Reed did very well in zone coverage this season. He showed off excellent awareness, picking up receivers and trading them off as they left and entered his area. Reed's closing speed allowed him to be aggressive as he jumped routes and also baited QBs. The senior also attacked his tackle attempts the same way he attacked the ball in the air. He would close quickly, wrap up, and do his best to be the one delivering the hit. Check out the highlights from the 2025 DB.
