Chandler was a bit of an unknown up until this spring when Dabo Swinney swooped in with a scholarship offer. Chandler was committed to the University of Georgia for baseball. Swinney offered Chandler the opportunity to play both football and baseball at the college level. Upon making it known that he was open to playing college football, Chandler’s stock soared. He’s ranked as the second-best quarterback in Prep Redzone’s initial rankings. He could make an even bigger jump in only his second season as a starter. Chandler likely has focused more on playing the position in the offseason and could come out more polished and even bigger and stronger in 2020. He has potential to soar up the overall rankings in the 2021 class.
Devin Mcglockton, Tight End, 6’6” 220 pounds, South Forsyth High School (2021)
Mcglockton’s profile picture on his Twitter page has him split as a football player and a basketball player. His basketball roots make him an intriguing football prospect. His size can’t be taught. His leaping ability and body positioning skills are all innately there and it shows on his football film. With another year of football instruction and another year of filling in through weight room work, Mcglockton could be a physically dominant target at any level. A big season on the football field in 2020 could catch the eyes of many more Power 5 schools. No matter where he ends up, his raw skillset has the makings of a potential pro.

, Quarterback, 6’3” 210 pounds, Roswell High School (2022)
Roper checks the physical boxes. His height is adequate, his weight is solid, and he has a strong enough arm to get the ball where it needs to be. Roper can also move around in the pocket and can be effective as a runner. If he plays well in 2020, his stock could jump based off the physical traits he possesses. In his film he sometimes finds receivers a little late and tends to lob the ball to give defenders time to recover. With another year of seeing and reading defenses that should be corrected. Roper with quicker decisions and execution is a player to watch.
Lucian Anderson III, Quarterback, 6’2” 200 pounds, Prince Avenue Christian School (2023)

in the state of Georgia for two seasons. (He practiced with the varsity team as an eighth grader).
In a few games in his freshman season, Anderson handled himself well. He made quick, decisive decisions and displays above average arm strength already.
Anderson could grow into his body over the next few years and flash electrifying measurables that could bolt him up the boards of Power 5 schools. Has upside as an athlete as he grows stronger. He’s already got a feel for delivering the ball in the pocket. A big season in 2020 could go a long way for this quickly improving youngster.
Ryan Young Ryan Young 6'3" | 295 lbs | OL Brookwood | 2021 GA , Offensive lineman, 6’3” 295 pounds, Brookwood High School
Young is already built like a prototypical interior offensive lineman. He has it all. He can anchor in place; he can hit the moving targets on pulls in space and he’s nasty. Young was one of the better overall lineman prospects evaluated. The guard position may be a bit under valued in the recruiting world, but Young is the type of player that could handle himself right away at any level. With another year of refined technique and added strength, though Young already asserts himself physically, could be big in the way Power 5 schools view him. Young could end the 2020 season as one of the top overall lineman if he smooths his technique in pass protection.
