If you want another 2027 safety this time that shows his strength getting off blocks and can use sound pursuit angles in the run game in the backfield. He’s already had one senior eval lead to an offer in the first week of September and my gut tells me more attention could be coming the more he’s put out on tape as I like what I have seen from a development perspective when it comes to his pass coverage, as his long strides can get sideline to sideline to go make a tackle out in space. The two-way athleticism that Noah has also shows off a fluid route-runner that can be an asset in the redzone as a tight end. I feel Noah grades out higher than his offers show and should be a good D2 fit.

The Elkhorn North Wolves have some defensive playmakers to keep an eye on this offseason, including rising DB Noah Ford Noah Ford 6'3" | 195 lbs | DB Elkhorn North | 2027 State NE . Noah had a great full season in a starting role, tallying 41 tackles, two TFLs, and an interception. I was able to watch Noah in person this season, and my biggest takeaway was his size, standing at 6’3″ and 190 pounds, with room to continue maxing out his frame. He also has great length to go with his frame, which helps him with defending passes. Noah is listed as a safety, but I can see him in a safety/nickel role where he can be moved around to matchup wth the offense. He has the speed and agility to hold up well in coverage with excellent range and break on the ball. You also get a willing run defender in Noah, who doesn’t shy away from stepping up into the box and making a play on a RB.
