We were able to see the lineman go through an array of drills and one on ones.&nbsp; Here I examine what caught our attention from the defensive lineman at the camp!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1566782' first='Kelonnie' last='Owens'] (Bloom - 2027)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Owens is a long and angular edge rusher that checked in at 6'2” 210 pounds while running a blistering 4.8 40 yard dash time.&nbsp; Looked great in drill work as he bended around the edge with his body control and quick feet.&nbsp; Bag work was a day in the park to him.&nbsp; Fluid footwork and has tremendous speed off the edge.&nbsp; Gets the tackle off him with hands.&nbsp; Showed a variety of pass rush moves with quick moves inside, powerful use of his hands through defenders, and spin moves for wins in one on ones.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1598811' first='Brian' last='Demoss'] (Simeon - 2027)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Demoss is among the best defenders still uncommitted.&nbsp; Sounds like his decision will come down to Kansas and Kansas State.&nbsp; Long and lanky edge rusher that presents fluid athleticism and easy change of direction.&nbsp; Great in circle drill with his bend.&nbsp; Burst off the snap and powerful punch with his hands.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1335328' first='Corey' last='Randolph'] (Simeon - 2027)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Randolph played up to his ranking as one of the best interior defensive lineman in the state.&nbsp; Big bodied defensive tackle with plus plus athleticism.&nbsp; Powerful bull rush through centers and guards.&nbsp; Quickness getting up field consistently with his burst, hands, and technique.&nbsp; Won on an up and under along with a sweet swim.&nbsp; Juice getting north/south.&nbsp; Very vocal after each win!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1791849' first='David' last='Hill'] (Homewood Flossmoor - 2027)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Wisconsin commit looked every bit the part of a Big 10 defensive lineman on Sunday as the defensive tackle was very agile and technically sound in drill work.&nbsp; Light on his feet for his size and the movement skills translate.&nbsp; Low to the ground and changes directions on a dime.&nbsp; Moves very well for his size.&nbsp; Powerful use of his hands and has quickness beating interior offensive lineman off the snap.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Machail Henderson (Cahokia - 2027)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 6'4” 250 pound defensive lineman from the metro east put his name on the map.&nbsp; Moves really well for his size.&nbsp; Change of direction and was sound in circle drills.&nbsp; Thick lower half.&nbsp; Look for a big senior year here!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1334164' first='Jyheir' last='Sutton'] (Kankakee - 2027)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Stout 6'1” 290 pound defensive tackle is a thick bodied interior defensive lineman.&nbsp; Was just ok in drill work, but when the one on ones started he turned it up!&nbsp; Quick move inside for win on a top ranked guard.&nbsp; Elite hand placement getting offensive lineman's hands off him.&nbsp; Swats them away like a bug.&nbsp; I think I wrote hands down 4 times in one on ones alone!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2104961' first='Ronald' last='Moore'] (Kenwood - 2027)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Moore is a stout defensive tackle at 6'2” 300 pounds.&nbsp; Solid athlete that was at his best using his spin move in the one on one drills.&nbsp; Mixed in some power but the spin was most effective.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2140300' first='Hunter' last='Mosolino'] (Prairie Ridge - 2028)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 6'4” 250 pound defensive end got to Sunday after qualifying on Saturday.&nbsp; Country strong defensive lineman that has power in his hands.&nbsp; Flashed a nice combination of power and speed to continue to develop moving forward.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Darieon Prescott (Bolingbrook - 2028)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The #2 overall 2028 prospect looks the part with his massive frame, strength, and length.&nbsp; Burst off the edge and moves so well for his size.&nbsp; Even with the best of the best his physical tools and athleticism jump off the field.&nbsp; Drive tackle up field then jumped inside for a win.&nbsp; Speed to power rushing outside of the tackle.&nbsp; Power game plays well inside with his bull rush and hands.&nbsp; Absolute freak show!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2083730' first='Jaxson' last='Hutton'] (Providence Catholic - 2029)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The 6'1” 220 pound edge rusher checks in early in the process as one of the premier edge rushers in the 2029 class.&nbsp; Strong frame and plus athleticism with his compact build.&nbsp; Super quick off the edge and has bend which was shown in circle drills.&nbsp; Type writer footwork in bag drills.&nbsp; Explosive use of his hands and has some power coming inside against tackles.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
