Expert Analysis
Paul Gregorian | Prep Redzone Scout
Boeddeker is one of the top linebackers in the 2028 class across the state and is a do it all player that can stuff the run and cover downfield and has the athletic traits/cover abilities needed for new age college football. He has a quick trigger, good closing speed and is a very efficient tackler in the open field while taking the proper angles when knifing into the backfield. He shows quick change of direction when scraping over the top and fluid hips in coverage while able to turn and run downfield staying tight to the hip and is a very sure tackler that is violent at the POA. He’s a highly instinctual player the fly’s around and is always around the ball and should demand plenty of FBS/FCS attention.

Read EvaluationPaul Gregorian | Prep Redzone Scout
The Bishop Diego product is one of the more athletic linebackers in this class that can really run and covers a ton of ground in the open field when closing in on ball carriers. He is always around the ball, has a very high football IQ when sniffing screens/draws and has a quick trigger that explodes through contact and packs a punch at the point of attack. He flashes he can knife into the backfield, apply pressure quickly up the middle and takes the short angles into the backfield while not afraid to blow up a second level blocker. He is a no-brainer FCS/FBS prospect and should have another stellar Junior season this Fall.
