<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's never too early to start talking about the 2025 season. Below are 5 players that had outstanding seasons last Fall and are on our Pre Spring DPOY Watchlist. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1201795"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67a0e5908bc0d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Prep Redzone has Character listed at the #12 DB prospect in the State but he muscled up over the last few years and moved to the LB spot. He recorded 152 tackles in '24, his 2nd consecutive season with 100+ tackles. The 2-way contributor is listed at a chiseled 6'1 208 and added 700+ yards rushing on the offensive side of the ball for the Knights. Vision, speed and toughness set Character apart from the rest of the field in AAA. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Outlook</strong> </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Word on Character is just starting to spread. He has received 4 D1 offers with Georgia State and Arkansas St coming through just in the last week. D1 Talent.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong><a href="https://x.com/Mal_Character4">Follow Character on X </a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1214548"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67a0e5908bc83"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Brown is a natural at the LB sport. He has good size (6'1 215), strength, athleticism (36.7 VJ), and football genes to be one of the top LB recruits in the nation in the 2027 class. He recorded 152 tackles with 14 tackles for loss this past Fall in helping lead the Dragons to the State Title game. Brown was a stud in the postseason recording 63 tackles and 5 TFL in Jefferson's 5 playoff games. A hard hitting LB with great vision and anticipation that has good upside at the college level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Outlook</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Already a National Recruit with Tennessee, Georgia State, and most recently Purdue extending an offer. A top 10 2027 prospect in Georgia. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><a href="https://x.com/maxbrown4_">Follow Brown on X</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["409882"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67a0e5908bccc"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Wuerth has been steadily climbing the Ranking charts after putting together back to back impressive Sophomore and Freshman seasons at Aquinas. The 6'2.5 255, Prep Redzone Showcase alumni, had 147 tackles with an impressive 38 tackles for loss in '24. He has continued to develop physically and has really muscled up without losing quickness. Weurth explodes off the line of scrimmage and just over powers blockers at this level. Being from the Augusta Area, he may not get as much State wide attention as he deserves but this young man is a baller. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Outlook</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>State schools, Georgia Southern and Georgia State, have taking notice and extended offers. At his current progression it is just a matter of time before he is known Regionally. Good film with good upside potential.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><a href="https://x.com/jadenwuerth23">Follow Wuerth on X </a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Jaylon Carolina","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'0u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"235","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2496","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Monroe (Albany)","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67a0e5908bd76"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I will throw a Wildcard in here from SW Georgia. Carolina was an HM All State selection this Fall after recording 113 tackles with 15 tackles for loss. A solid built kid at 235 that carries his weight well and has good mobility and quickness. He has a high football IQ and does a great job at anticipating where the play is going. A physical tackler that you are not going to be able to run through. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Outlook</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Carolina is on our radar now and we will be following him close this Fall. Good size and speed combination that should catch the eyes of recruiters soon. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><a href="https://x.com/carolina_jaylon">Follow Carolina on X</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1573164"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67a0e5908bdc2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Davis is a producer at the high school level. A 3-year starter for the Purple Hurricanes that had 25 tackles for loss with 12 sacks last Fall. A technician that understands leverage, fires off the LOS quick, and has the strength to power through blocks. He is outstanding in pursuit and has a nose for the QB. Davis plays with a lot of intensity and was Region DLOY and well as a AJC All State selection. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Outlook</strong> </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Metrics are keeping Davis flying under the radar but the kid can produce. Solid, next level build with good quickness. He has the talent to play at the next level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong><a href="https://x.com/DacianDavis">Follow Davis on X</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
