<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>These 2027 prospects are seeing their stock rise...</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2162467"],"_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-69cc0001b704d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">One of the top sleeper 2027 tight ends in the state, Linder is a versatile, hybrid player on offense who can line up in the backfield as an H-Back, as a traditional tight end, or on the perimeter as a pass catching wide receiver. He's physical in the run game and brings plenty of size and athleticism at 6-foot-4 and 215 pounds. He's a weapon in the run game but also knows how to work the middle of the field in the passing attack. As a junior last season, the multi-sport standout caught 17 passes for 247 yards and one touchdown. Look for those numbers to increase in a big way 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":["2162478"],"_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-69cc0001b70fb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">An under the radar cornerback at Lanier High School in Swanee, Georgia, Coe is a sure tackling run defender who has no problem sneaking into the backfield to make a big play behind the line of scrimmage. He wraps up well and does a great job of securing a tackle at the feet and around the ball-carrier's legs. He can play in the box, and he can cover the middle of the field as a nickel defender or safety. He brings good size at 6-foot-0, 185 pounds and is bound for a really strong senior season in 2026. Don't be surprised if Coe pushes for All-Region honors in his final year later this fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1958234"],"_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-69cc0001b717b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A sleeper defensive lineman to know at Dalton High School, [player_tooltip player_id='1958234' first='John' last='Stanley'] is a max-effort North Georgia defensive end who consistent found his way into the backfield last season. He brings above-average size at 6-foot-4 250 pounds, brings quick, strong hands, and made play after play in the behind the line of scrimmage as a junior. He ended the 2025 season with 49 tackles, 8 tackles for a loss, and three sacks to go along with three fumble recoveries and one forced fumble. He's an active defender who could have a gigantic senior season this fall if he continues to work hard and progress over the next five months.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2147495"],"_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-69cc0001b71f3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A fast rising defensive back south of Atlanta, with a nose for the football, [player_tooltip player_id='2147495' first='Zyaire' last='Patrick'] earned a new offer from Western Michigan recently and should see more come his way after a terrific junior season, where he picked off five passes and broke up 12 more in coverage. He's a sure tackler from the secondary, who also caused one fumble, recovered two more, and made... 46 total tackles on the season. He reacts quickly, he plays hard, and he knows how to make a big play on the football. He's a weapon on defense and should see a significant bump in the next 2027 Prep Redzone rankings down the road.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2085920"],"_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-69cd5c480d39e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A speedy athlete to know in Cherokee County, Rowe is a Woodstock native with good size at 6-foot-1 185-pounds with above-average speed and burst. A do-it-all player on offense who can line up just about anywhere, Rowe showed he's a weapon with the ball in his hands who could see more opportunities to make plays on that side of the ball as a senior. He's a playmaking defender on defense, making 45 tackles and picking off four passes, taking one of them back for a touchdown. He also broke up six passes and is one of the top returning defenders in the region. Like the others, look for Rowe to see a bump when the next Prep Redzone rankings are updated.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
