Julius is quickly becoming a highly sought after prospect within the state of Washington. He has been having a monster sophomore season and will only continue to get better. A few weeks back, Julius had an outstanding game having 22 total tackles, 13 for loss, an outstanding EIGHT sacks in one game, while also forcing a fumble.
At 6’2” 210 lbs. he’s a versatile defender that plays the hybrid OLB/DE spot well. Proved to be effective with his hand in the dirt or standing up in a two point. Only a freshman he dominated the 1A level with 77 tackles, 31 TFL, and 16.5 sacks. He’s got a strong build and is developing length since we first covered him as an eighth grader. Flashes great initial quickness off the LOS, he explodes out of his stance working around blockers before they can get set up. This quickness allows him to diagnose plays as they develop and make a ton of tackles at or behind the line. He chases hard and shows some short area burst to close space on the ball carrier. Knows how to use his hands to disengage from blockers. Projects as a D1 prospect.
If and when he puts it all together, this is a kid that has the potential to be playing on Saturday’s at some level. His size is on point and his raw athleticism is noticeable. Moves a little too slow-footed in terms of agility and getting back on balance once off-platform. Has the size and potential to be a difference-maker.
