Auburndale Pro Day: Spring Standouts to Know

Auburndale's Pro Day gave a strong early look at where this roster stands heading into spring. With pads coming soon and roles starting to take shape, this group showed growth, energy, and a clear sense of direction. The production is there from last season—but now it's about development, consistency, and how these pieces come together moving forward.   Teo Edwards | QB | 2029 | @EdwardsTeo7   Edwards continues to trend as one of the more promising young quarterbacks in the state. For a 2029, the poise stands out—he's comfortable making reads, doesn't rush decisions, and shows a growing understanding of situational football. The arm talent is there, but what really shows is the confidence and command he's starting to take on early. As he steps into more of a leadership role, spring reps will be important for continuing to build timing and consistency.   [player_tooltip player_id='1657157' first='Malachi' last='Moore'] | LB | 2027 | @MalachiMoore222   Coming off a 100+ tackle season, Moore looks like a steady presence in the middle of the defense. He plays downhill, trusts his reads, and consistently finds the football. His instincts and effort level give him a strong baseline, and he's starting to show more comfort in how he processes plays. Heading into spring, continued development in coverage and overall range could take his game to another level.   Charles Calhoun | RB/LB | 2027 | @4_wayyyzz   Calhoun brings real versatility to both sides of the ball. At linebacker, he's improved in space and looks more comfortable handling coverage responsibilities. Offensively, he runs with intent—physical, direct, and built to handle volume. He's the type of player that sets a tone with how he plays. Spring will help define where he's most impactful, but the value on both sides is clear.   [player_tooltip player_id='1258720' first='Takeo' last='Edwards'] | ATH | 2027 | @edwards_takeo   Edwards has taken a noticeable step forward this offseason. His speed translates immediately, and he's becoming more consistent turning short catches into explosive plays. There's a natural feel for space, especially in the slot, and he gives the offense a legitimate big-play option. Expect his role to continue expanding as timing develops with the quarterbacks.   Major McBath | WR | 2027 | @Majormcb   McBath continues to build momentum as one of the more reliable targets in the group. Clean routes, strong hands, and improved confidence stood out during the workout. He's becoming more consistent in how he separates and finishes plays. With spring reps ahead, he's in position to take on a larger role within the offense.   Adonis Cuyler | ATH | 2027 | @AdonisCuyler2   Cuyler looks comfortable working more on the offensive side. His burst and ability to secure the football make him a dependable option, especially underneath. Still brings versatility as a two-way athlete, but offensively he gives Auburndale another piece that can create after the catch. Spring will be about refining that role and building consistency.   [player_tooltip player_id='1727159' first='Pat' last='Weir Jr']. | ATH | 2027 | @PeezyWeirr   Weir brings an edge to the offense with his combination of speed and toughness. He runs with purpose, can handle contact, and still has the ability to create in space. His versatility allows him to be moved around, and he consistently competes at a high level. A player who could see his usage increase as the offense continues to develop.   Tavaris Smith | ATH | 2028 | @tavarissmi23088   Smith is an early name to know in the 2028 group. His speed is noticeable right away, and he has the ability to turn small openings into big gains. Still developing physically, but the explosiveness and long-term upside are there. Spring reps will be valuable as he continues adjusting to the speed of the game.   Cordelius Allen | ATH | @CordeliusAllen1   Allen brings production and physicality to the defensive side. A high-motor player who consistently finds himself around the football, he adds toughness and versatility to the unit. His ability to contribute in multiple roles should make him an important piece as Auburndale builds its defensive identity this spring.   Darrin Williams | DB | 2027 | @DarrinW23   Williams continues to show natural instincts in the secondary. He tracks the ball well, times his breaks, and puts himself in position to make plays. The ball skills stand out, and he's building confidence with each outing. Spring will be about continuing to sharpen technique and consistency in coverage.   [player_tooltip player_id='1705032' first='Jamarian' last='Everett'] | ATH | 2028 | @marifrmla23   Everett is another young prospect trending in the right direction. He already shows a solid frame and a feel for the game that stands out at this stage. As he continues to develop physically and gain reps, he has the tools to become a key piece for this program moving forward.   Trenches   Kodi Wright | DE | @Kodi_WrightJr   Wright brings consistent effort and energy off the edge. He has the frame to develop into a pass rusher, and while he's still refining technique, the motor and willingness to work are there. Spring will be important for his continued development in hand usage and overall pass-rush approach.   Theapolis Island | C/G | 2027 | @theot4__   Island is a physical interior presence with a strong base. His wrestling background shows up in leverage and balance, and he plays with toughness in the trenches. After a productive season, continued strength development and technique work this spring should help solidify his role up front.   [player_tooltip player_id='2124069' first='Michael' last='Gaskins'] | TE/DE | 2027 | @MichaelGas8ins   Gaskins has intriguing size and versatility. He's still developing, but the physical tools are evident. On defense, he has the potential to disrupt, and offensively he offers size at tight end. With continued refinement, he could become a valuable two-way contributor.   [player_tooltip player_id='2091658' first='Andy' last='Westry'] | DE | 2029 | @Andywestry9   Westry stood out with his effort and approach. Quick off the ball, aggressive with his hands, and willing to compete every rep. Still early in his development, but the traits and work ethic give him a strong foundation heading into the spring.   New Faces:   James Stubbs | OL | 2028 | Auburndale | @_jaythegoatt    David Parker | TE | 2027 | @parker_dav16797    Isaiah Johnson | WR | 2028 | @IsaiahJohn95133   Chystian Stevenson | DB | 2028 | @Crystians20   Jhonnyell Mena | DE | 2028 | @1kkjhon    Rakeem Rivers | ATH | 2029 | @D1Bo448    [player_tooltip player_id='2171430' first='Steven' last='Lias'] | S | 2028 | @StevenLias1k
