Expert Analysis

Connor Jackson

Prep Redzone Lead Scout

Stout RB who runs with an excellent feel for the position and tremendous patience. He always keeps his feet firing, allowing him to roll off contact and bounce plays outside. He is more sudden than he is fast, making subtle changes in run path to evade tacklers, but he did look to add a little more juice this year. Peripheral vision is a plus. He produced at a high level against good competition for several years and should be an early contributor at West Georgia.

Read Evaluation

Matt DeBary

Prep Redzone Lead Scout

An outstanding back who led the way for one of the best teams not only in Georgia but across the country, Lester is still one of the more underrated backs you’ll find in Georgia. He brings plenty of size, change of direction, explosiveness, and the ability to stay upright after initial contact. He’s so tough to bring down and does a great job of breaking tackles and picking up extra yards down the field. He’s run for an eye-opening 1,477 yards and 22 touchdowns this season and has made it look easy at times. Over his last two playoff games, Lester has run for over 300 yards and four touchdowns. Look for him to keep running hard against Lee County on Friday night.
