Representing the Rockford area, Lutheran High School’s 6’2, 190 lb. WR and OLB John Behmer John Behmer 6'2" | 200 lbs | LB Rockford Lutheran | 2025 State IL , who earned All-Conference honors last fall and a second-team All-Conference nod in 2021 as a freshman, is particularly interesting as an OLB prospect. He opens his tape with a really nice chase down of a loose returner on a kick return, covering almost 50 yards to hawk the returner down at the 10 on a beautiful pursuit angle, and his defensive highlights look good as well. Holds a long, lean frame, does a good job of shocking & shedding blocks or getting skinny through blocking attempts, and comes off the edge controlled but with speed and can execute stunts as well as simply get upfield and make plays in space and in the backfield. As a WR, Behmer plays out of the slot and is slippery and shifty with the ball in his hand after the catch or on jet sweeps across the LOS. Shows off good hands as well.

Rockford Lutheran’s John Behmer John Behmer 6'2" | 200 lbs | LB Rockford Lutheran | 2025 State IL is a young utility player with an impressive frame. Playing both outside linebacker and slot receiver, John is about as dynamic of an athlete as you can find at this level. John plays well in space and has no problem tracking the ball off the edge. With his size and strength, John can track a ball down with no problem and finish the job with strong tackling capabilities. From what I can tell, John is a relentless competitor and will always find a way to get to the ball. With the tremendous upside that I see in him, I am incredibly excited to watch him perform heading into the next season.
