Blue-Collar Bruisers: 2026 EDGE/TE Prospects

Blue-Collar Bruisers: 2026 EDGE/TE Prospects
If you are a high school football fan in the state of Florida, you already know what storied past that the Glades Central Raiders have enjoyed. After a few tough seasons, this team is looking to turn things around in 2023.

<!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='1695388' first='Jayden' last='Daniel'] – EDGE, Glenbard West (6'0, 220)</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Daniel is a strong, compact defensive lineman who thrives in the run game. He uses quick hands and a powerful base to disengage blockers and make plays in the backfield. His get-off is impressive, and he plays with a consistent low pad level. Glenbard West will continue to lean on him as a tone-setter in the middle of the defense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Kevin Michaelson – EDGE, Saint Patrick (6'5, 235)</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Michaelson has the frame and athleticism to be disruptive coming off the edge. At 6'5", he uses his length well and has the flexibility to dip and bend around tackles. He's picked up offers from Illinois State, Minnesota State–Mankato, and Western Illinois — all recognizing his upside. Expect his stock to continue rising this fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">[player_tooltip player_id='401608' first='Ian' last='Campbell'] – EDGE, Joliet Catholic (6'3, 240)</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Campbell is the definition of consistency and power. His hands are violent, and he sets a strong edge against the run. He's not just a bull-rusher — he uses technique and a high motor to create problems for opposing offenses. With a list of Division I offers, including Air Force and Akron, Campbell is positioned for a big senior year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Sean Kerr – TE/EDGE, Rolling Meadows (6'5, 215)</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kerr brings a dual-threat presence to the tight end position. He's already shown the ability to create mismatches in the passing game with his size and hands, but his blocking is equally valuable. Kerr is tough at the point of attack and holds his own against defensive ends. He's the type of player who rounds out a complete offense.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
