Lane played injured the whole game... Played 95% of the snaps... Scarlett overrated and doesn't run a 4.3 mor like 4.5. Hates contact and gets winded after 3 runs in a series. #11 Keshaun Taylor is our sleeper WR 6'1 170lbs great hands sneaky speed and plays hard every down. #8 Devanta Davis is a true WR PLAYED DB as spot duty for this game 6'3 194lbs great athlete who loves the U
Finally more information(height/weight) about this kid... 6'3 194lbs:eekeyes:
Can you talk more about him, BroncoNation21?
Thanks in advance
Vantae' can play almost anywhere in the secondary but truly dominates at the WR position. I've coached him since his 9th grade year.. He is currently a junior runs a 4.5 40, 270 max and is a very coach able kid who does whatever it takes for the team to be successful. He attended the UM camp as a WR but was overlooked. HE'll be bouncing around in the secondary throughout the year but don't be surprised with the amount of TD's he has on offense and the amount of receptions.
Would love to see him play either SS (more likely) or FS. He may dominate HS as a WR, but what position would he max out as a college player? Looks like he has good hips and is extremely aggressive. Add in the instincts and ball skills, and I guess I'm just curious about him as a Safety. Looks like a kid who'd do well at VTech (mentioned that about another kid yesterday, too). How is he diagnosing plays? How is he with film? Does he see plays before they happen? Interesting prospect.
Right now he's playing off instinct. Remember that I said he's played WR throughout high school but he does watch film and studies the offensive schemes within weeks. He has a nose for the football when it's in the air. He gets better and better competing with Lane, Gilbert, AD #6, and Keyshaun each day.
At the next level he will ultimately excel at strong safety... He can cover but he is a for sure tackler who is solid on the run.
Cool. That's what I guessed above and that's where I'd project him. Hope he gets some development there or at FS so colleges can look at him like that. Some will probably even think he's a LB because he'll be 6' 3"ish 205 by his senior year, but he looks kinda wiry. Gonna try to make it out to a Homestead game to check him and the Taylor kid out.
Funny enough, your best defensive football player yesterday may have been a kid (#50?) who doesn't get a look by colleges because he looked pretty small for a LB. Reminded me of the small, scrappy LBs from my HS days. That kid was cot**** everywhere - +instincts, +aggression, and +feet. How young?
