. A three-sport standout representing the 507 more than well, Gatwech has put together some seriously impressive freshman tape and is moving, producing, and dominating like an upperclassman as compared to a first-year prep football player. It’s hard not to think about him playing P4 football one day – conditional on the in-person size, movement, and athletic ability hold up – but the game tape is about as important of a variable and there is, and Gatwech’s is looking great right now. Positionally versatile and can line up on the interior or out as a 5T DE, Gatwech possesses a powerful and sometimes dominant bull rush that can drive OL backward and on their heels into the backfield, where he can shed and make TFLs behind the LOS. He shows a good first step, processes and finds the ball quickly off the snap, can make tackles through contact and is a beast of a presence in run defense , and start/stops well for a kid of his size. Gatwech has a rep of him holding two Austin OL at bay before finding and eliminating the RB, which looked like an older brother holding some rowdy cousins off each other. The 280 lber also demonstrates noticeable, eye-catching, closing speed for a big guy once he gets into the backfield and can also run down RBs from the backside of the LOS. The future is VERY bright for this young man.
