He fires off the ball and uses his length and quick hands to fight off blocks and find the quarterback. The 6-foot-5 220-pounder has made 44 tackles and 16 TFLs to go along with 13 sacks so far this season. His best game has come against Decatur where he made 14 tackles, six TFLs and 3.5 sacks. He's one of the top pass-rushers across the country for his class and is currently rankled as the No. 9 overall prospect in Georgia for the 2027 class.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1893372"],"_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-68c9a0f87015f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A tough, max-effort defender with an impressive first step off the snap, Jones is a guy who competes hard and consistently makes plays in the backfield. Through just two games, Jones has made 10 tackles and five sacks. He takes advantage of every opportunity and makes offenses pay for poor blocking. He brings size, good burst, and impressive closing speed when chasing down the quarterback. He's been a complete sack machine when he's been out there and will be one of the area's leading defenders in sacks this season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1893379"],"_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-68c9a0f8701c7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A sleeper metro-Atlanta defensive end who can really rush the quarterback, Frayall is been an extremely active and productive pass-rusher through his first three games of the season. He's not the biggest or fastest defender in the 2027 class, but he's been one of the top pass-rushers as he's made five sacks so far early in his junior season. He made two sacks against Stephenson and three sacks in a win over Lakeside. He plays hard, closes well, and knows how to wrap up properly as he's also made 13 total tackles. He'll be an easy addition to the next rankings update and could see his recruitment pick up down the road.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1893385"],"_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-68c9a0f870220"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A big, physical defensive lineman who can play on the edge of making plays on the inside, McClinton brings plenty of size and strong hands, fighting off plays and consistently finding his way into the backfield. The small-town defender stands at 6-foot-2 250-pounds and does a good job of overpowering opposing offensive linemen. In four games, the Cochran, Georgia native has made 17 tackles, eight TFLs and five sacks. He's been one of the more productive defenders in the region and has flashed D1 potential due to his size, production, and overall potential.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1893414"],"_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-68c9a0f870278"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A lean, versatile, and explosive linebacker who knows how to deliver a punishing hit, Baker has been one of the more productive defenders across Savannah so far this season and is in the middle of a possible "breakout" junior season. The speedy, sure-tackling linebacker is a promising pass-rusher who has lived in the backfield this season with his 20 tackles, five TFLs and five sacks. Three of those five sacks came in a monster win over Windsor Forest. Look for Baker to continue lighting up the stat sheet and see a new Prep Redzone ranking come his way this winter.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
