Expert Analysis
Will Helms | Prep Redzone Scout
Horton is one of the most physically gifted players in the area. He played a lot as a blitzing linebacker off the edge for Dudley, creating plenty of havoc in the backfield. On offense, he played tight end, receiver, and H-Back on a unit that loves to move players around to create mismatches. His blend of size and speed is rare, and he’s the occasional athlete who comes along with the ability to play multiple positions at the next level.

Obviously, I knew Horton would make one of these Deep Dives for the defensive side of the ball after also ranking as a receiver. But I didn’t decide to put him in the linebacker rankings until about 15 minutes before writing this. He lines up everywhere defensively, and when I say everywhere, I mean everywhere. Is he an edge rusher? A deep dafety? Regardless of where he’s lined up, he’s a big play waiting to happen, thanks to his length, speed, and physical style of play.

Horton will be a future FBS player as a safety, but here we’re breaking down his receiver skills. He has excellent height, speed, and strength, and controls his body well. Horton has shown a surprising ability to get open (especially for a guy whose focus is largely on the defensive side of the ball). Several Dudley playmakers will be called upon to take on bigger offensive roles, and Horton has the ability to also step up his production.
