Expert Analysis
Oliver West | Prep Redzone Scout
Experienced SMB safety Grady Rannow balled out last Friday night in Plymouth but was very fun to watch in my defensive-centric eyes. He was all over the field and did a ton of things well, which included stepping in at RB for some productive carries through the teeth of the Lions‘ defense. He did his best work at safety however, where he broke up a handful of Providence Academy attempted passes on second level throws and showed a quick ability to process and break on the football as a third level defender. Additionally, he brought the boom in a ton of different scenarios, which included coming up to enforce the run, big hits in the middle of the field to break up passes and/or make WRs pay, and even on one of his own team’s INTs, where he cracked the returner and crumpled him to the ground. The physicality, range, and ability to impact both the run and pass game for the Lions was a big part of SMB’s defense holding the Lions to 21 points and zero second half scores.
