<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The junior class in Mississippi has some defensive backs to get your eyes on. A lot of speed down here in the Magnolia State. These DBs are players you are going to want to know.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1454426' first='Braylon' last='Key']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Key is a player from South Panola who really makes things happen on the football field. He is one of those guys with the ability to go up with receivers on jump balls. Key is a 6-foot-2, 185-pound prospect with some really good instincts on the field. You are going to see that he knows how to mirror his receiver. You are not going to see him out of position a lot. This kid is also known for being able to get a hand on the football.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1246915' first='Brendan' last='Harper']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Harper is another player who has some good instincts on the football field. We have been seeing him lining up at the safety position, but he may end up playing cornerback on the next level. Harper has some good game speed and quickness. He knows how to make it happen in clutch situations. Harper is also known for making a big play when the momentum is on their opponents' side. This is a kid you are going to want to keep up with.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1237316' first='Connor' last='Pittman']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Pittman is a player who we have been keeping our eyes on for a long time. We were able to see him making a beautiful interception last week. He is kid from Magee who has a lot of skills on the defensive side of the football. Pittman also knows when to just break the football up instead of making a mistake trying to catch a pick. Pittman is also known for being able to come up and make tackles.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1237274' first='Yoshawn' last='Hudson']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hudson is a defensive back from Winona who started catching our attention as a freshman. This season, Hudson has been playing on the offensive side of the football. He is able to show off those ball skills that help him out on defense. Hudson is one of the best players in the state of Mississippi for his class. He is one of the players who we are waiting on to start seeing some division one offers coming his way. This kid is the truth.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"></h2> <!-- /wp:heading -->

The junior class in Mississippi has some defensive backs to get your eyes on. A lot of speed down here in the Magnolia State. These DBs are players you are going to want to know.
