Ever since jumping on the recruiting scene last year with a strong junior season, Overton has done nothing but build his stock even more by staying consistent this Fall and developing his game much further. The Firebirds senior is one of the top athletes for the O-line position in the #TN2024 class and his updated film shows it. Overton is a mauler who moves well laterally, showing excellent footwork and the ability to stay in front of his opponent. He also plays with a mean streak and enjoys punishing defenders and pancaking them whenever possible. I see tons of value with Overton as I believe he could handle multiple roles across the O-line, including right tackle and center. He does need to keep forming his body and continuing to develop his bend and overall athleticism but I see strong interior potential with this Nashville area road grader to become a starter on the D1 level.

It took some time for this athletic O-lineman to see his recruitment crank up but it’s definitely started up now! Not too long ago, Overton landed his first few offers and saw his recruiting kick off but much more is yet to come as this Mid-Tennessee prospect has the talents to be considered for the D1 level and I think that will be proven this summer at college camps. What this guy brings to the table is athleticism, balance, power and versatility. All four of those traits translate very well to the collegiate level and Overton has the ability to possibly play all five positions on the offensive line. His stock is strong right now but I feel it will only grow stronger over the coming months as more coaches catch wind of the Nashville native.
