How did you think he did at FNL?

I think he reinforced his ranking (like he did at the opening)

Raw athlete. Has good athleticism and speed (he closed on McCall a few times after falling 3 steps behind at the beginning). Will need time to develop and looks more like a safety or SAM prospect to me but he has some nice raw tools to be coached up.

He struggled a bit in coverage but everyone not named Damon Webb gets smoked at least 1/4 of the time in these drills. Meanwhile EGW got toasted a fair share but his natural gifts are much different (and he has very little experience) and show a far more natural corner that needs coaching and time to become more consistent.

What jumps out to you is how long he is. Those arms go for miles and yet he has solid definition. He looks like he could add weight to that frame without losing much quickness.

The comparison I was thinking of was a more athletic Tyvis Powell.

Oh OK. I was assuming he'd be more like Worley or Lee because of his size. Guys that were labeled as LBs, but were more like Stars, almost like a younger version of Bryan browning(formerly of the Seahawks, now with the Patriots)

@jwinslow, makes sense now. Thanks for the clarification

BUCKEYE COMMIT TYLER GREEN AND TEAMMATE ANTHONY MCFARLAND SHINE IN PHILADELPHIA

On Friday night, I attended a high school football game in Philadelphia to see 2015 Buckeye commit Tyler Green and 2017 target Anthony McFarland.

Green, McFarland and their DeMatha Catholic (Md.) teammates travelled up I-95 to play La Salle (Pa.) in the "Brothers Forever Classic." The game's name comes from two former players, one from each school, who became best friends at the U.S. Naval Academy. They went through battle together and each was killed in the line of duty. Today, they are buried next to each other in Arlington Cemetery, with this game serving as a reminder of their friendship.

Although DeMatha ultimately lost the game 41-39, they made a strong comeback, scoring the last 19 points of the game. Green and McFarland played major roles in the comeback.

Tyler Green, a 6-foot-3, 195-pound safety, has a reputation that precedes him. Green spent most of the game at nickelback, and La Salle avoided throwing at his side of the field. He recovered an onside kick, and his positive attitude buoyed the team even when they were down by three scores.

I also went to the game to see Anthony McFarland, a 2017 running back prospect and Ohio State target. McFarland might have been even more impressive; he blazed past La Salle's defense for 300 yards and three touchdowns, essentially being the only reason DeMatha's offense was in the game before the comeback.

During the game, I was able to chat with Green's mother for a good two hours about everything under the sun. The conversation drifted to why Tyler committed to Ohio State and the answer was simple: Urban Meyer.
