Expert Analysis
Vic Castillo | Prep Redzone Scout
Doesn’t sit right that a specimen like Benedict Umeh ranks where he ranks. It’s a testament to how special the rest of the class is, especially considering how deep the DL class is among 2024 graduates. Benedict Umeh blew me away in terms of size. Again, my first time seeing the young man up close. There isn’t a bit of baby fat to his name, all this to ensure he’s in top shape this coming Fall. I’m excited to see where he eventually lands along a future Power 5 defensive line.
Had my first glimpse at the newly acquired Derrick Brown Jr. Derrick Brown Jr. 6'2" | 225 lbs | LB Avon Old Farms | 2024 State New E , formerly out of Charlotte Christian Academy. Unfamiliar with football in the Carolinas, yet I imagine the number of DLs that rival this kid’s potential are few and far between. 6’3, 225, arguably a more chiseled stature than Umeh, Brown showed off a bit more bend and flexibility in drills in comparison to Umeh. Umeh blends power and speed well, whereas Brown is going to be a tough matchup to handle if he gets the get-off around the edge that he’s used to.
