Another member of the Paducah Tilghman defensive line that finds himself on this list is senior Layton Davis Layton Davis 6'0" | 265 lbs | DL Paducah Tilghman | 2023 State KY . Davis carried a very impressive regular season into the playoffs as he finished with 15 total tackles, four tackles for loss, and two sacks over a three game stretch. Much like Cleary, Davis is a dangerous pass rusher. He explodes out of his stance and uses his speed to blow right by opposing offensive linemen before they have a chance to block him. Davis has also shown the ability to fight through blocks and be used on stunts. Against the run, Davis does a great job of reading the play and uses his speed to come down the line to make tackles when the play is away from him. Layton is committed to Campbellsville University where I see him developing into a key piece of their defensive line.
