Manning made 53 total tackles (31 solo, 18 tackles for a loss) and sacked the quarterback 14 times last season. Manning uses rips and swim moves to get around the offensive tackles that try to block him during pass plays. Versatile, plays from a two-point or three-point stance. Good closing speed. Manning has a high number of TFL’s due to his ability to shoot the gap or power his way past blockers.

Robert burst on to the scene this year for Old Mill as another big time threat from the edge spot in the MD/DC/DE area. Making his first entry into the ranking and earning the #4 overall spot. With 14 sacks and 23 TFLs on the year he very much caught my eye when I saw him at practice earlier this season.

A great looking prospect on the hoof, Robert has the size, frame and length colleges look for. He will easily be a 240lb+ player by his senior year. What standouts from Robert’s play is his versatility in his game from the DE spot. He shows real fluid hips and impressive lateral mobility. Able to re-direct, turn and run, set the edge as well as can get skinny shooting inside or win from the outside with speed. Robert is a player who is still new to the game of football so while he showed some rawness at times he has sky’s the limit potential going forward.

Shockingly holding zero offers that I know of currently, expect that to change soon. I think that may be due to him being such a new prospect on the radar and coaches not getting eyes on him yet. Come this spring/summer don’t be surprised if they start rolling in for Robert.
