He has prototypical size and strength for a linebacker; in fact, beyond prototypical at 6-foot-3.&nbsp; Very fast and quick for his size with good hips and fluid change of direction. He is very instinctive and possesses great ball skills and coverage to break up passes. &nbsp;Has a very high ceiling and I would expect him to only get better over the next two seasons.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1791961"],"_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-695184e932cca"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1791961' first='Dawson' last='Deatherage'] is a rocked-up, in-shape outside linebacker who flashed great skills in pass coverage.&nbsp; The 6-foot-0, 195-pound prospect from Triad High School broke up several passes and went up against some solid receivers where he broke up passes against prospects who are taller than him.&nbsp; Against the run, on tape, Deatherage takes great angles to the ball and flashes thump as a hitter.&nbsp; Earned LB MVP honors.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1150293"],"_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-695184e932d1b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1150293' first='Cooper' last='Beaty'] is an excellent Class of 2028 linebacker with plenty of upside.&nbsp; Beatty's skills in pass coverage which he flashed at the camp also shine on tape. He recorded an interception and is very good at dropping back in coverage and making plays on the ball.&nbsp; Beatty also takes great angles to the ball as a run defender, wraps up on contact and can deliver big hits.&nbsp; Beatty is a great tackler who flashes good pursuit and range.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1743262"],"_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-695184e932d69"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Of all the top performers featured here, Lewis may have the highest motor.  With strong pursuit, great range, and outstanding instincts, Lewis can make tackles.  He can thump in space, takes great angles without overpursuing, and wraps up in the open field.  Lewis is a good block destructor who flows to the ball and takes great angles.  He is also a defensive back but played LB at the camp. Keep an eye on him during college camps.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
