Posted a 6-minute long mid-seaosn tape to Hudl, a young man I’ve had my eye on for some time now. Excels in off-coverage, many reps come with Butler stationed 7-8 yards off the ball pre-snap. Unafraid to attack screens and out routes that occupy his flat-zone, has a good quantity of reps showing off his tackling ability when this region of the field is being worked. Not a blazer at corner, but does well staying in-phase with vertical routes for the first 15-20 yards. His rep at the 2:53 mark showcases his catch-up speed. Has numerous PBUs on tape. I personally like him at corner more than wideout, yet Butler provides respectable two-way abilities for Bartram. He thinks a whole lot less at wideout, he plays free and loose, often coming away with spectacular grabs downfield. Good hand-eye coordination and the speed shows if given the opportunity.

It was a tough Saturday afternoon for the Bartram Braves. The team has talent, there’s no doubting that, the team also has an experienced coaching staff calling the shots. Sometimes games go this way. Nonetheless, the Braves still have bright spots worth noting.

I have followed Aamir Pender Aamir Pender 6'1" | 230 lbs | LB Bartram | 2023 State PA for quite some time, he has now become comfortable in his role on the defense. The young man has real linebacker instincts, despite his role at FB/RB and his occasional reps around the edge. Pender’s frame has been questioned, leaving his possible collegiate career position up in the air, yet he looks to be slightly slimmer, which should inevitably raise his stock. Pender played angry on Saturday, a good sign that shows he cares at the very least. Pender did what he could to throttle inside zone runs.

Symir Mckoy Symir Mckoy 6'1" | 220 lbs | ATH Bartram | 2023 State PA also put forth a valiant effort. McKoy’s skillset and role are similar to Pender’s. McKoy’s a big kid whose future position is unknown as well. McKoy’s play off the edge and reps at running back weren’t enough to slow down the Clippers.

This was also my first time seeing Haleem Butler Haleem Butler 5'11" | 165 lbs | DB Bartram Highschool | 2024 State PA work. Butler came down with a few impressive catches when Bartram was able to throw the ball. There’s skill to be unlocked with Butler, he could be a project that college coaches would be willing to work on.
