Oshane Martin Jr Oshane Martin Jr 6'2" | 205 lbs | LB Erasmus Hall | 2024 State NY is a name that some people have raved about to me, Martin Jr was solid on a Erasmus Hall defense last season that stopped every offense they faced. However, outside of the defensive line there was not a ton of play time for Juniors and when I saw Erasmus Hall twice last season Martin Jr was in on a rotational basis. I will add, when Martin Jr was in, he stood out as one of the more aggressive instinctive players on that defense. Martin Jr is starting to get some love and got a couple of strong local offers. Martin Jr is now getting into the territory where measurables and athleticism wise he is one of if not the top linebacker in the state. Could be a tough battle for the #1 LB spot in a position group loaded with FCS talent.

Oshane Martin Jr Oshane Martin Jr 6'2" | 205 lbs | LB Erasmus Hall | 2024 State NY could be one of the biggest impact players that is not on the defensive line for Erasmus Hall this season. Martin Jr has some solid tape but in a LB group that has had so much talent over recent seasons there has not been a ton of available reps. However, this fall Martin Jr’s speed and quickness should be on full display and his ability to make plays in coverage with really solid mirroring of receivers and good ball skills in addition to being a threat as a blitzer off the edge make him a candidate to create a lot of negative plays and turnovers for E-Hall. Martin Jr has shown a unique level of athleticism that not every LB is gifted with so if he can combine that with some quality tape in a larger role he could be a major candidate to jump up the rankings this fall.
