he hhas good tape and sacks translate...but 6'0 230?? as solely and edge..im not fully bought in on that..i know heather man sees him as maybe a jack..but to me thats already ashari charles.

if they can train him into a mike ...and blitz him a ton he can develop to a Mo toure type imo.

Hes essentially the size of ezekiel marcelin but he does have long arms. This would be a Heatherman take and i dont ever mind if a dc or oc has a guy they particularly want. If it was he or Gooden though i would take Gooden @Jiren

I looked on 247 out of curiosity and saw 4 DL commits and they ranged from 6’3” a 6’3.5”

Campbell and Charles. Both “listed” at 6”2’ which they are both probably under that. Just think we need bigger body types there

Lafayette is extremely productive and has long arms. He’s a take, imo, especially with the expanded rosters.

I've seen Charles listed at 6'3…And you said "sub" 6'1. Saw Campbell next to CMC in a pic and he looks to be 6'2 maybe slightly under…Campbell doesn't look short by LB standards either and despite Gaby brining it up outta nowhere, I doubt he plays edge.

I didn’t realize you cared about sub-300 pounders.

Maybe that just applies to lady friends?

I am equal opportunity lover of all rubenesque ladies from the slim thick"er" types to the grown big beautiful Women dragg'N a wagon 8-).

An owe baby are there some **** big booty mamitas in Metro Orlando and by default they tend to produce football players offspring.

The thing with Lafayette is that he has unusual athleticism. He uses a jump cut like a tailback, which makes sense since he also plays tailback.

Don't underestimate both the coaching at school and private coaching these players are getting in the " Country Club Lake Nona area" ( your words D not mine). Lake Nona area players have access to some of the best coaches & facilities, money is not an Issue; they just keep it low key.

Florida’s football legacy grows as former NFL stars coach high school teams

Florida is certainly a breeding ground for football stars, with names like Emmitt Smith, Deion Sanders, Ray Lewis and Lamar Jackson all hailing from the Sunshine State.

How does he compare to Malik Bryant,similar size.Bryant played some early here an now never plays.

Bryant is hurt.

Lafayette is the best athlete of all these guys and the most productive. But he’s also the shortest. He’s the 100 mph fastball out of the bullpen on pass-rush downs.

I thought I read on here that Lafayette has long arms?

So another Pickett? He’s been the same guy and a sack monster in HS as well…

Bryant just had some type of leg surgery

I think there's definitely some similarities, I think this kid may be an inch or two shorter than Bryant.

DeAnthony Lafayette is Much quicker than Pickett and has elite fighting hands to defeat the OT long arms when they get their hands on him.
