Olentangy Liberty
#55 Dylan Graber – DL – 6’3 255 – Big talent from the 3-4 Noseguard position. Very good flexion in his stance with proper weight distribution. Explodes of the snap and violently uses his hands. Defeats run and pass blocks exceptionally well. Plays with extreme physicality.

Norwalk St. Paul
#80 Tyler Perkins – Punter – 6-0 190 – Didn’t want to miss out evaluating this punter from up the road in Norwalk. Has very developed punting technique. Snap to kick is in college timing range. He gets real good height and hang time on his kicks. Had a really high yardage average this season. Highly developed drop technique which varies depending on field position.

#10 Blake Guffey – WR – 6’1 190 – Very talented small school WR. Runs very precise routes and catches everything thrown his way. Great leaping ability to attack the ball in the air. Tough runner with the ball in his hands and drags defenders down field. Can put him in at TE with his body type and also align in him multiple receiver positions. Very good defensive player at ILB and OLB.

Jonathan Alder
#22 Chase Maynard – LB – 6’1 215 – This kid is a technician. He plays with really good patience both inside and outside the box. He diagnoses plays well and is in the correct spot with the ball carrier. I believe he uses his eyes and hands well to defeat blocks. Did see a fair amount of passing offenses this year and is adept at drops and getting to his zone quickly. Most importantly, he a great tackler.

Pickerington Central
#12 Kai Valdez – LB – 6’0 205 – 4.0 GPA and also a really good baseball player. Very technically sound under the radar linebacker. He reads very well with his eyes and has the patience to meet the ball carriers on or behind the LOS on most plays. Has the speed to cover and chase down ball carriers and QB’s outside of the pocket. He is a real good one to watch this off season.
