Northfield has been a talent factory as of late, and their 2027 class has some talented, exciting, and high-ceiling prospects that college coaches need to prioritize when evaluating and vetting 2027 Minnesotans. A sleeper who PRZMN has certified as a stock riser whose evaluation has earned him an upcoming bump up to the Ranking’s Big Board, 5’10, 180 lb. Northfield FS Davis Ness had a solid season with the Raiders‘ in 2025, finishing the fall with 29 tackles, 2 INTs, 8 punt returns for 85 yards, 7 kick returns for 164 yards, also 1-4 on passing, according to MNFootballHub.

Ness is dangerous, productive, and rangy as the single-high or two-high SAF who can cover sideline-to-sideline and patrol the MOF with effectiveness, and he read/processes quickly and can make effective breaks on the football all over the field from his SAF spot. Ness will come downhill and make 1v1 tacklers as that free defender and tackler, with good form and strength at the contact point, and he displays good play speed and runs the alley with pace and patience, as well as shed blocks and make tackles in a single defensive rep. DIII, NAIA, and JUCOs should get this dude on their radar, and DIIs need to get this Northfield Raider to camp! Also, Davis, make your way to Plymouth on April 18th for the PRZMN Spring Exposure Series Showcase!
