Why keep an eye out for them you might ask? Well for one they are some guys you will undoubtedly hear about making headlines for their respective teams and secondly because they could end up having a break-out season that could really heat up their recruitment for most. Here are some of the top senior risers on our list to watch this season.
Stephen Banford Jr. Stephen Banford Jr. 6'2" | 205 lbs | QB Archbishop Shaw | 2022 State LA | 6’2″ 205 lbs | QB | Archbishop Shaw
Bandied has beautiful footwork and works the pocket smoothly. He has a quick, kind of sidearm release and he can get the ball and get it out in a hurry. I like his timing and decision-making on all of his throws could improve his mechanics but should be one special player to watch this season.

Kelvin Kinney Kelvin Kinney 6'1" | 180 lbs | QB North DeSoto | 2022 State LA | 6’1″ 180 lbs | QB | North DeSoto
This is a dual-threat QB who has a cannon for an arm. He is one player that could surpass many on our charts currently this coming up season. This is an elite quarterback that despite not being the pro-type size he has elite ability running and throwing the ball. I really like this prospect and think he is FBS level.

Caivyn Johnson Caivyn Johnson 6'1" | 180 lbs | QB West Jefferson | 2022 State LA | 6’1″ 180 lbs | QB | West Jefferson
Johnson flashes some encouraging velocity throwing towards the middle of the field and on side line passes. He works the pocket well and has the adequate speed to pick up yards with the football. Needs some minor improvements here and there but definitely worth keeping your eye on this season.
Buddy Taylor Buddy Taylor 5'11" | 160 lbs | QB John Curtis | 2022 State LA | 5’11″ 160 lbs | QB | John Curtis
Ladies and gentlemen we have our self an athlete in Buddy Taylor Buddy Taylor 5'11" | 160 lbs | QB John Curtis | 2022 State LA . Just imagine a quarterback with a wide receiver or running back speed. This is the guy. He plays in a pro-style of offense. This reminds me of the “good ol day” of when more offensives ran this style of offense at the high school and college-level I might add. He has had a beautiful 3-step and 5-step drop and perfect timing on all of his throws. I really think he could be a versatile player at the next level.

Jeremiah Doherty Jeremiah Doherty 6'3" | 205 lbs | QB Albany | 2022 State LA | 6’3″ 205 lbs | QB | Albany
The Albany quarterback for this coming up season is a good pocket passer with good height, size, and ability. We liked his arm, quick release and a number of other things about him. Should be special this season.
Grant Billson Grant Billson 6'2" | 200 lbs | QB St. Paul's | 2022 State LA | 6’2″ 200 lbs | QB | St. Paul’s
Geant completed 105 out of 207 of his pass attempts. Completing 8 touchdowns and threw for over 1,500 yards last season. He flashes encouraging velocity on all of his throws. I think he could earn his way up our charts and on a few college recruiting boards.
Cole Milford Cole Milford 5'11" | 165 lbs | QB De La Salle | 2022 LA | 5’11″ 165 lbs | QB | De La Salle
Yes, Cole may be a bit undersized and under-recruited because of it but make no mistake this is a good quarterback. He’s got a strong arm and is proficient in the short to the intermittent passing game. He’s more of a pocket-style quarterback but can throw well on the run. He’s one that could raise his rock this season.
