<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>These 2027 prospects in Georgia are seeing their stock rise...</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2104571"],"_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-69665117c8d14"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A big, physical interior offensive lineman who can really open up running lanes, Morrison moves well for his size who can pull and play in space. He can overpower opposing interior defenders and has the mobility to track down linebackers too at the second level. A pancake machine who consistently eliminates defenders from the play, Morrison made 80+ pancakes this season while earning First-Team All-Region honors. The Dacula native is one of the fastest-rising offensive line prospects in Gwinnett County and recently earned a major offer from the in-state Georgia Bulldogs.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2104573"],"_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-69665117c8d9e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A gifted lineman on the rise with a lean, promising frame at 6-foot-6 305-pounds, Jackson brings above-average athleticism for an offensive tackle with raw athleticism and a really high ceiling. He fires off the ball and uses his length to grab onto defenders early. He's still developing and perfecting his craft, but his potential is easy to see. He uses his size to his advantage and was one of the region's top tackles this past season as a junior. This metro-Atlanta left tackle plays hard and should see his recruitment really pick up in 2026. He earned a recent offer from West Virginia and should see more come his way soon. He'll also be an easy addition to the next 2027 Prep Redzone rankings.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2104582"],"_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-6966578367587"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A quick, twitchy wideout with impressive hands and change of direction, Kelly is a sure-handed weapon who can stretch the field and help in the screen and short passing game. He can get open, make defenders miss, and is always looking to score. He wasn't playing against the best competition, but he was still consistently one of the very best players on the field every Friday night. The playmaking 5-foot-11 175-pounder hauled in 54 passes for 940 yards and nine touchdowns last season. He's one of the top overall receivers in the Columbus area and earned a recent offer from Florida Atlantic. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2104583"],"_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-696657836761b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A talented two-way athlete down in South Georgia, Mincey is coming off a strong junior season where he made a big impact at both linebacker and running back during the 2025 season. He was 2nd on the team in rushing last season, carrying the ball just 46 times for 383 yards and seven touchdowns. That's an impressive 8.3 yards per carry. Defensively, Mincey was surrounded by talent all over the Toombs County defense, but still managed to make 30 tackles and one INT. He's a natural athlete who should make an even bigger impact on both sides of the ball as a senior in 2026. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2003933"],"_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-696657836769b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A North Georgia athlete with length, ball skills, and versatility, Johnson is a small-town prospect with an impressive 6-foot-4 180-pound frame and natural athleticism. Offensively, he's a big target down the field in the passing game who can also take off down the field after the catch. He's a jump-ball weapon down the field in single coverage who can jump and make a play over smaller defenders. The Cedartown pass-catcher caught 19 passes last season for 350 yards and five touchdowns. On defense, Johnson made 38 tackles, two INTs and two fumble recoveries. Look for some D1 interest and offers to possibly come his way over the next several months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
