Picked up his first offer out of Sacramento State this past week, a huge moment, one we'd love to dig deeper into via interview. Butler is apparently dominating as a Triple Jumper, all while coming off a junior campaign that saw him lead all of Maryland in total interceptions (9 via MaxPreps). One would figure Butler would impress as a pass-catcher in this environment, yet all passes caught will likely serve as icing on the cake to his defensive prowess. Expecting him to work at safety in this one. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Had a great year this year, can't wait for my senior season coming up, I will be back and better.<a href="https://twitter.com/BowieHighFB?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@BowieHighFB</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/CoachBost?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@CoachBost</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/MaxPreps?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@MaxPreps</a> <a href="https://twitter.com/MarylandHigh?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@MarylandHigh</a> <a href="https://t.co/q8MIcA0ZMc">https://t.co/q8MIcA0ZMc</a></p>&mdash; Elijah butler (@elijahbutler02) <a href="https://twitter.com/elijahbutler02/status/1858587210603167771?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 18, 2024</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1313462"],"_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-67d31162789f4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">6'0, 192 pounds. Currently ranked the fourth best linebacker in all of Maryland (2026). Huge praise from my colleague and Maryland lead Todd Haldis. Saunders boasts availability at wideout too, not often you see an elite linebacker be more than serviceable as a potential pass-catcher. Looks like that's the type of athlete we are dealing with here, intrigued to see him work against elite competition. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>3.0 GPA.

Another linebacker build at DimeU's disposal. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This type of setting usually doesn't suit well for the back/backer type of prospect. Yet if Saunders and Rodriguez can carve up defenses while serving as respectable pass-cover guys near the hashes, they'd prove to me just how special they can be when projecting them to both sides of the field at the next level. How natural of a pass-catcher is Rodriguez? Is he capable of running legitimate routes, is more of a backfield swing/bubble guy on offense or can he provide more? Excited to see and learn more. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:html --> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Check out my sophomore season highlights! 5'11ht 175lb<a href="https://twitter.com/Coach_Nosoff?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@Coach_Nosoff</a> @Blazer_Football <a href="https://t.co/Zs6ydZZAuc">https://t.co/Zs6ydZZAuc</a></p>&mdash; Junior rodriguez (@1kkjrr) <a href="https://twitter.com/1kkjrr/status/1725156065925337234?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">November 16, 2023</a></blockquote> <!-- /wp:html --> <!-- /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":1638845,"_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Cory Martin ","_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":"6'2u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"155","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2411","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Frederick","_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-67d3116278ae8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">This a name I remember, Frederick HS junior Cory Martin put forth a performance that left an impression on me this time last year.

Douglas is a creative option for the coaching staff over at Eleanor Roosevelt, I would expect the DimeU staff to get creative with him as well.
