PRZ Combine Review: Notable Stock Risers

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1602647' first='Davon' last='Washington'] | WR | 2026 | Lake Brantley | @Davonwash12</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Washington was electric at the event as he ran some of the best routes we've seen at a PRZ Combine. He had people stopping to watch his reps—couldn't stay in front of him. Quick off the line, smooth in and out of breaks, and flat-out dangerous with the ball in his hands. He's a big-time playmaker for Lake Brantley and boosted his stock in a major way.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1657157' first='Malachi' last='Moore'] | LB | 2027 | Lake Gibson | @MalachiMoore222</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Moore brought that Polk County toughness with him. He flew around during drills and didn't hold back in 1v1s—physical, fast, and always around the ball. He's built solid at 6-0, 215 and keeps getting better each time we see him. One of the more active backers at the event.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>DJ Porter | ATH | 2027 | Richmond Hill | @DJ_Porter7</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Porter made the trip down to Boone High this weekend and showed he's a name to know in Georgia's 2027 class. At 6-0, 190, he's built like a college-ready athlete and played like one during 1v1s—physical at the line with good separation skills as he showed off his versatility. Coming off a strong sophomore season with 37 tackles, 5 PBUs, and an INT, Porter backed it up with a performance that should start turning more heads.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1263602' first='Curtis' last='Dewberry III'] | ATH | 2026 | Lake Brantley | @C4Dew</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Dewberry had some of the best hips and coverage skills we saw all day. Smooth, patient, and always in phase—he could've easily taken home the DB MVP. He sees the game well, reacts quickly, and brings a competitive edge every rep. He's quietly turning into one of the top two-way guys in the area.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1620592' first='Michael' last='Pickard'] | OL | 2028 | IMG | @MJPickard54</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Pickard didn't just show up with size—he showed out with skill. At 6-4, 305, he's already got the frame, but what really stood out was his movement and technique for a young lineman. He's not just a big body—he's got something to his game, and this weekend proved he's one to track early.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1599795' first='D'Marion' last='Simmons'] | RB/ATH | 2027 | Lake Mary | @_upnexxtmari</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Simmons looked the part from the jump. Shifty in space, explosive out of cuts, and ran clean routes out of the backfield during 1v1s. He's a true all-purpose weapon that can line up all over. Lake Mary has a gem—this kid can play.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1654725' first='Corey' last='Shahin'] | QB | 2027 | American Heritage | @CoreyShahin</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Shahin came out and quietly put together a solid day. He looked comfortable during drills and showed the ability to deliver on time during the 1v1s. Still developing, but there's something there with his poise and feel in the pocket.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1597326' first='Mason' last='Desandolo'] | DE | 2027 | Lake Gibson | @MDesandolo12</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Desandolo is a blue-collar edge who keeps stacking reps and showing improvement. He's got a motor, plays with good leverage, and is clearly putting in the work. He's slept on for now, but that won't last if he keeps showing up like this.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
