Tweedy’s tape was recently sent to me, and I was very impressed. Aidan played his entire junior season at 225 and dominated. He’s bulked up to 265, and I think he is a kid who can become an FBS or FCS level talent. Tweedy has a great frame that he’s only going to continue to grow into. He’s a finisher who continuously drives his feet until the defender is on the ground. Tweedy plays with good knee bend and doesn’t lunge at defenders. His long arms give defenders issues in both the run and pass game. He showed some serious strength at 225, and I’m excited to see what he’ll develop into at this weight as a senior.
Coran Woods, OL, 6’4, 275 Oswego East
I loved this kid’s film and think he has all the makings of an FCS offensive lineman. Woods moves incredibly well for a man his size and can reach block defensive ends without a struggle. He’s a natural puller and can easily kick out outside linebackers. He has a clean vertical set and consistently keeps his shoulders square in pass protection. He plays with good hand placement and has a strong punch that causes defensive lineman and linebackers problems. I’m very interested to see if he can play tackle because if so, I think his stock could shoot up quickly.

Garrett Stare, WR, 5’11, 165, Neuqua Valley
This is a slot receiver who is exceptional at tracking the football and can go up and get it. Stare doubles as a return man, and is a threat to take it back every time he’s kicked too. He’s a great vertical route runner who always seems to find his way behind coverage. Stare may not be the biggest guy, but he is physical at the point of attack in the blocking game and will do the dirty work.
Jason Berger, DB, 6’, 180, Lemont
Berger’s best work is done out of a shuffle when he has his eyes on the QB. This kid has great instincts and attacks the football in the air. He does a great job reading 3-step concepts, pairing that up with crisp breaks. He’s physical in cover 2 and not afraid to put his hands on a wideout. Berger is an impressive open-field tackler who has no struggles coming up and making tackles in space.
Grayson Griffin, LB, 6’, 190, Waubonsie Valley
When it’s all said and done, Griffin will have been a 3-year starter for the warriors and for good reason. Griffin is an instinctive, twitchy linebacker who has an impressive burst. He’s physical and can fight off blocks from tight ends and wide receivers. He’s relentless on special teams and can be a day one contributor there. Griffin has good speed and has the potential to possibly make the move to DB at the next level.
