The third installment of the Score44

This is the third installment of the post-spring Score 44. We have done the first 22 of the Score 44 over the last few weeks on The Official Visit. Tune in next week for the final 11 of the 44. Scott Janovitz weighs in with his thoughts....

Greyson Lambert: 6-5, 195-pound QB out of Wayne County. His team was terrible and his stock seems to be dropping little by little as time goes on. Does have offers, however, from Alabama, BC, Clemson, Georgia, Miami, Miss. State, N.C. State and UVA. I think it’s a Clemson-Georgia battle right now. Has nice size, good accuracy and arm strength. Struggles moving in the pocket and throwing on the run. Quick release, throws deep ball well, and fade along the sideline, tough throw;

Mike Davis: 5-9, 192-pound RB out of Stephenson. Committed to Florida. His one knock is breakaway speed, but he is plenty fast. Runs with power, speed and tremendous quickness, cut-back ability. He sees the field and running lanes as well as any back I’ve seen this year;

Scotty Hosch: 6-3, 190-pound QB out of North Gwinnett. We like him more than most. Smart, can deal with a lot, quick release, good arm strength and excels on crossing routes. No offers just yet, but he has excelled to date at everything his coaches have asked of him;

Nick Tompkins: 5-10, 185-pound RB out of Brookwood. Gaining offers by the week. Has ones from Army, BC, Cal, Cincy, Duke, GTech, Maryland, Michigan State, Miss. Miss. State, Purdue and West Virginia. Tremendous speed, quickness and make-you-miss ability. Looks like he’s running on skates. He and Davis are the two best HS backs in the state. Kid has nice power for his size too. His jump-cut is Fred Tayor-esque and the state’s best go-to move;

Imani Cross: 6-1, 220-pound RB out of North Hall. Committed to Tennessee. If he stays healthy, his stock has chance to improve more than any other. The kid is a physical freak with tremendous size, speed and agility. Also catches the ball extremely well for a big back. This guy could be elite, don’t know what he is yet;

Dakota Ball: 6-2, 292-pounder out of Pepperell. Committed to Alabama. Good size, good athlete once he gets moving, but not nearly as explosive off the line as Taylor and some others. Not sure if he’s an end in 3-4 or a tackle. Good against the run. Fights off blocks well, and plays with great motor. Good pass rush skills off the edge;

Dillon Lee: 6-4, 220-pounder out of Buford. Committed to Alabama. Impressive straight line speed and blitz ability, but doesn’t have the lateral quickness of elite LBs. A great player in his own right, but plays in a smaller classification, and just isn’t a freak like some others. Tremendous in pass coverage. Little risk, and still high reward. Does everything well. His change of direction skills are exceptional for someone over 6-4. Plays the game physically and mean. Any school in America would be happy to have Dillon. Will play MLB at Alabama;

Jafar Mann: 6-4, 275-pounder out of Stephenson. Committed to Florida. A beast against the run, maybe the best outside of Taylor. Does a good job getting into backfield, and fighting double teams. Can be incredibly explosive for a big body at DT, but needs to play with more consistency and effort. Has the potential to dominate. Surprisingly agile and explosive in space. Has all the tools;

Carlos Hood: 6-4, 275-pounder out of Stephenson. Committed to South Carolina. Right now, more of a run-stuffing nose. Can dominate at times. Has impressive quickness off the line, which helps him get into the backfield at times. Very good against the run, not a dominant pass rusher, but decent speed and quickness.

Jarontay Jones: 6-1, 240-pounder out of Stephenson. Committed to Virginia Tech. People question his height at just 6-1 listed, but he is big, physical, a dominant athlete with great aggression and explosion. As good against the pass as he is against the run. His lack of length helps him get effective leverage in the pass rush. As good as anyone outside of Jenkins at using speed and strength. Nice, smart, gets recruiting;

Quinteze Williams: 6-4, 260-pounder out of Sandy Creek. Committed to Florida. Agile and quick for someone 6-5. His versatility makes him particularly enticing. Good swim move, and overall pass rush moves. Can play in the middle, but his future is as a big DE. Hard to really evaluate because he makes the game look so effortless, less violent. Seems to just run right by people, but doesn’t appear to moving as fast as other elite DEs. Can take on big blocks to stuff and fill against the run. Because of physical size, his potential is immense.

For the final 11, tune in to The Official Visit next Monday, 8-10pm or come back here next monday on SBF
