Cady is a flat-out playmaker on the defensive side of the football. A strong tackler with a great feel for how to get opposing players on the ground. Shows the ability to do multiple things, blitz, cover and then is one of the best open field tacklers we have seen on film.

Cady is leading the state in tackles with a total of 61. The senior is an absolute monster at linebacker where he is able to do multiple different things. A quick reactor that is able to trigger downhill quickly but also is able to cover in space. He is a unique outside linebacker that is able to really do it all on the football field.

Cady is coming off a stellar Junior season and is one of the top two-way players across Idaho from his receiver and defensive back spot. He is very fluid in space and has solid COD/breaking abilities with closing speed and does a nice job at sealing the edge and running the alley in clean up duties. Cady plays with a physical downhill style of play while also very consistent in pass coverage with natural ball skills/recovery speed and length at the POA. Cady currently holds one offer from the university of Jamestown, and it would not be surprising if other D3 schools came in and offered through out the season and as we head toward National Signing Day.

Cady can do a multitude of different things on a football field where he is more of a hybrid OLB that can cover and impact the box. Quick trigger with the ability to really get downhill quickly but has enough fluidity to cover tight ends and runningbacks. What separates him from many other linebackers is his ability to cover slot receivers along with great open field tackling

Cady is one of the more athletic and versatile/fluid outside linebackers/strong safety hybrids across the state, and picked up an offer from Whitworth University. He is in line to have a monster Senior season for one of the top teams in Idaho and has had a very productive off-season so far and been impressive at multiple camps and showcases. Cady should continue to rack up D3+ offers through this Summer and Fall.

Cady is a very athletic prospect that offers a ton of position versatility at the next level from either a linebacker or strong safety position, as he is very smooth and natural and coverage while not afraid to drop down, set the edge and bang in the box. He showed good hip fluidity and lateral movement abilities while showing he can run and cover a ton of ground in space with closing speed. Cady was one of the more athletic linebackers in the group, and should really see his stock rise through his Senior season for one of the states top teams.

Cady is a very athletic and talented strong safety/outside linebacker that checks in as a top player in the state of Idaho in this 2025 class, and is a no brainer next level kid that should be close to his first offer as he heads into his Senior season. He has visited both Washington State and Idaho this off-season, and has received plenty of college interest this Spring. He should be slated as one of the top linebackers in the state this Fall and is part of a very impressive returning defense for the Vikings.
