has developed as a potent leader for the Raiders’ defense, but over the last two seasons, he’s also flashed impressive capability as a punter. In 2025, Weisskopf averaged 39.2 yards per punt on 36 punts. Weisskopf’s athleticism was on display throughout the year, showcasing solid lower body strength as he was able to consistently drive the ball-carrier back, and it translated into driving the ball down the field with a strong swing of his leg. Weisskopf will take his talents to Grand View, where he’ll continue to develop most likely at LB, though he could be a solid option as an emergency specialist.

of Williamsburg. The 5’11 210 pounder, showed off a well-versed first step in watching his reps at South Dakota State as I could tell early that this young man attacks with physicality and extra pep in his step once he reaches to the point of attack. I could tell after playing DE mostly as a junior, that Dylan seemed to have more force in his hands getting off his blocks at a quicker rate of speed in what I watched a couple weeks back. Surprisely, Dylan only has just one NAIA offer thus far although I feel he is just getting started when it comes down to offers to play at the next-level.

Weisskopf contributed 30.5 tackles (21 solo, 8.5 TFL) and a fumble recovery. When you pop on his junior highlight video, a high-motor, aggressive performer is what jumps out. Weisskopf lines up with his hand in the dirt, making up for being undersized by using strength and leverage. Explosion off of the snap and quickness in tight space also aid his success. The clips showing him lining up at middle linebacker reveal a sideline-to-sideline defender that’s a sure-handed tackler.
