<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>DR7 Orlando at The Villages was loaded with talent, and plenty of guys made statements with their play. Some already have impressive offer lists, while others are just starting to catch fire in the recruiting world. Either way, these names should be on your radar heading into the spring.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1628895' first='Brian' last='Williams'] | WR | 2026 | Lake Mary | @WilliamsBrianjr</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Notable Offers: Florida, Auburn, Kentucky, Syracuse, Vanderbilt, West Virginia, USF</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Williams is one of the best-kept secrets in Florida, but that won't last long. He has received a trio of SEC offers from Florida, Auburn and Kentucky following the weekend. At 6-4, 190 pounds, he checks every box physically, but what makes him special is his fluidity and technical polish. He elevates with ease, runs crisp routes, and can create separation in the open field. His stock is already climbing, and with the way he performed this weekend, expect even more schools to come calling.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='893612' first='Tranard' last='Roberts'] | RB | 2027 | IMG | @tranardroberts1</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Notable Offers: FSU, Florida, Miami, Michigan, Tennessee</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Roberts is the real deal. A rising sophomore who's already turning heads, he looked like a natural in the 7v7 setting, running crisp routes and making defenders miss after the catch. He's explosive, decisive, and has the type of elusiveness that makes it look effortless. His move to IMG will only elevate his game and visibility.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='896057' first='Jordan' last='Cason'] | ATH | 2027 | Bradford | @jordan_cason5</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Notable Offers: FAU, Western Michigan, Central Michigan</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Cason continues to back up the hype. His length, speed, and instincts allow him to be a difference-maker in the secondary, but his versatility makes him even more dangerous. He's only a sophomore, but his upside is clear—he's going to be a high-level prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1373043' first='Rhys' last='Brush'] | QB | 2026 | Armwood | @RhysBrush</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Committed: USF</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Brush came in as one of the top quarterbacks in Tampa Bay, and he played like it. At 6-2, 185, he's got the frame, but it's his confidence, quick release, and ability to navigate pressure that stood out. His baseball background shows in the way he throws—fluid, natural, and effortless. Already committed to USF, he's only going to keep improving.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Luke Gaither | QB | 2027 | Radford | @lukegaitherqb</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Notable Offers: Arkansas, Sacramento State</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>This was my first time seeing Gaither live, and he was impressed. He throws the deep ball with accuracy, but what stands out is his ability to layer passes to all levels of the field. He anticipates routes well, has a quick release, and shows good movement in the pocket. A name to remember in the 2027 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1258690' first='Drew' last='Follett'] | TE | 2027 | Winter Park | @DrewFollett2027</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Recent Offers: UCF, Wake Forest, Liberty</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Follett continues to solidify himself as one of the better tight end prospects in Florida. This weekend, he faced tough, physical coverage, but his size and skill set have already been evident in past outings. If he keeps refining his game, he'll be a key weapon for Winter Park this spring.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Carl Jean-Bart | WR | 2026 | Evans | @CarlJB26</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Notable Offers: Pittsburgh, Liberty, Arkansas State, FIU</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jean-Bart was one of the top receiving threats in Polk County last season, and his move to Evans gives him another chance to raise his profile. He's a big-play receiver who can stretch the field and make defenders miss after the catch. His recruitment is trending up, and more schools should take notice.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Azuri Jackson | ATH | 2026 | Tampa Bay Tech | @ajdiesy</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Notable Offers: Ole Miss, Sacramento State</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Jackson is a walking highlight reel. His body control, hands, and ability to make tough grabs in traffic were all on display this weekend. He's a red-zone nightmare, and if he can translate that to in-game production this fall, his recruitment will explode.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>EShawn Sutton | ATH | 2026 | Winter Park | @EShawnSutton</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Notable Offers: Syracuse, Pittsburgh, Wake Forest, Georgia Tech</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Sutton was one of my favorite all-around players this weekend. He lined up at linebacker, played solid coverage, and showed leadership on the field. Whether directing the defense or dropping back into coverage, he was making an impact. His energy was contagious, and he's a guy</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Jordan Young | DB | 2027 | Lakeland | @jordanyoung_05</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Notable Offers: USF, SMU, Liberty, East Carolina</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Young is another young talent making waves in Polk County. At 6-2, 180 pounds, he already has the frame of a college-ready defensive back. He plays with confidence, attacks the ball in the air, and isn't afraid to get physical in coverage. Already ranked as a four-star prospect, he has all the tools to be a dominant defensive back in the coming years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Jordan Tarver | ATH | 2026 | Auburndale | @Jordantarver100</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Notable Offers: Ole Miss, Michigan State, Memphis</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Tarver is making serious strides as a defensive back, and his ability to read and react stood out. He's patient in coverage, understands route concepts, and has the speed to recover when needed. At 6-1 with track speed, he's got the athletic traits to be an impact player at the next level. Refining the small details of his game will only elevate his stock further.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Kyren Caldwell | WR | 2027 | Columbia | @CaldwellKyren</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Notable Offers: FAU</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Caldwell made a strong impression with his natural pass-catching ability. He tracks the ball well, positions himself against defenders, and showed a strong understanding of where to find soft spots in coverage. He's quick in and out of his breaks, making him a tough cover despite his young age. He's a name to know in the 2027 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Daionte Hicks | ATH | 2026 | Buchholz | @DJ_Hicks2</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Notable Offers: FAU, Troy, Sacramento State</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hicks is an electric athlete who thrives in one-on-one situations. His quickness off the line and ability to adjust to the ball make him a nightmare to defend. Clocked at a 4.41 in the 40-yard dash, his speed alone makes him an intriguing prospect, but his sure hands and route-running ability take him to another level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1200619' first='Smith' last='Lessard'] | TE | 2027 | Winter Park | @smithlessard15</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Lessard continues to emerge as a legitimate TE prospect on the DR7 circuit. He's already got a college-ready frame at 6-7, 245 pounds and is showing signs of developing into a dominant target. He's got the strength to battle through physical coverage and flashed solid footwork and route-running ability. There's a lot to work with, and Winter Park could have a serious weapon in him.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

DR7 Orlando at The Villages was loaded with talent, and plenty of guys made statements with their play. Some already have impressive offer lists, while others are just starting to catch fire in the recruiting world. Either way, these names should be on your radar heading into the spring.
