Leading the way was Overall MVP QB Rob Henry of Trinity Catholic in Florida.Henry, 6-foot-1 and 178-pounds, is a great dual-threat quarterback, who is athletic, strong, fast, and has an excellent arm. The sophomore left no doubt that he will be a major D1 prospect. During the combine events he finished with a 38.5-inch vertical, which tied the Combine record, a 4.04 shuttle, which was the 2nd fastest all-time at the Combine, a 9’10†broad, 4.55 40, and 23 reps at 150 pounds. He truly is an all-around player and athlete.The QB MVP went to sophomore Corey Swanson of powerhouse Lakeland High School in Florida. Swanson, 6-foot-3 and 270 ½ pounds, is more of a prototypical drop back passer. He possesses a rocket for an arm, pin point accuracy, and excellent athleticism for a player that is built like a lineman. He also had 22 reps at 150-pounds, a 22-inch vertical, and a 5.46 40.The defensive back position was loaded, and the MVP went to sophomore Kenny Johnson of Bayside High School in Florida. Johnson, 5-foot-8 and 150-pounds, was a lockdown cornerback during 1-on-1’s, and had a 33.5-inch vertical, 4.54 40, and 4.38 shuttle. Deserving special mention is sophomore Sean Evans of Fort Walton Beach High School in Florida. Evans, 5-foot-10 ½ and 163-pounds, was great during 1-on-1’s, solid during individual drills, and impressive during testing, where he finished with a 4.55 40, 4.48 shuttle, 16 reps at 150-pounds, a 35.5-inch vertical, and a 9’ 0 ½†broad.Another position was which stood out was running back. The MVP was sophomore Jeremy Wright of Eastridge High School in Florida. Wright, 5-foot-9 and 177-pounds, was great during 1-on-1’s and showed fantastic athleticism during individual drills. During the testing events he had a 34-inch vertical, 9’9 ½†broad, 4.51 40, 4.31 shuttle, and 23 reps at 150-pounds. Also deserving mention are sophomore Lakeal Pierce of JM Robinson High School in North Carolina and sophomore Laconia Blake of Lakeland High School. Pierce, 5-foot-6 and 142-pounds, was great during 1-on-1’s, and had a 28.5-inch vertical, 4.76 40, and 8’ 7 ½†broad. Blake, 5-foot-10 ½ and 167-pounds, was equally impressive during 1-on-1’s, plus had a 35-inch vertical, 4.64 40, 9’1†broad, and 16 reps at 150-pounds.The WR MVP went to sophomore Nickolus Thomas, who made the trip from Raleigh Egypt High School in Tennessee. At 6-foot-0 and 176-pounds, Thomas is a big and strong receiver who made several spectacular receptions during 1-on-1’s. During the combines he had a 32-inch vertical, 8’10†broad, 4.55 shuttle, and 4.77 40. Another receiver who definitely deserves mention is sophomore Kenny Whittaker of Chaminade Madonna High School in Florida. Whittaker, 5-foot-9 and 155-pounds, showed great hands and route running ability throughout the afternoon, plus he had a 30.5-inch vertical, 4.58 shuttle, 4.76 40, and 8’ 3 ½†broad.The offensive line position was dominated by MVP Kamran Joyer, 6-foot-3 and 315-pounds, of Wesley Chapel High School in Florida. The sophomore is a great finisher, extremely tough, and is nasty competitor. He also set a new Combine record on the bench with 35 reps at 185-pounds. Aside from the power numbers, he also had a 5.29 shuttle, 6’11†broad and 5.55 40. Even though the afternoon session did not see the same domination by freshman as the morning session, there were definitely a few that stood out. The co-winners of the Freshman MVP were ATH Benjamin McRoy of Lakeland High School and DB Gideon Ajagbe of Ransom Everglades High School. McRoy, 5-foot-7 ½ and 151-pounds, was dominant during 1-on-1’s, and had a 4.36 shuttle, 9’ broad, 29.5-inch vertical, 4.48 40, and 25 reps at 135-pounds. Ajagbe, 6-foot-3 and 186-pounds, was great in coverage and has the potential to be a big time D1 prospect. During testing events he had a 34.5-inch vertical, 9’9†broad, 4.60 40, 4.32 shuttle, and 25 reps at 135-pounds. The linebacker position was dominated by two Lakeland High School teammates. The MVP went to sophomore Deonate Gary, 5-foot-11 and 194 ½ pounds, who has great physicality and athleticism, and he showed this off during the 1-on-1’s, where he had 2 interceptions and locked down every running back. He also had a 4.85 40, 4.52 shuttle, 8’ 3 ½†broad, and 31 reps at 150-pounds. Gary’s teammate, sophomore Jordan Jones, battled until the end for the MVP and definitely deserves some special mention. Jones, 6-foot-0 ½ and 205-pounds, was great during 1-on-1’s and had a 31.5-inch vertical, 4.84 40, 8’ 11 ½†broad, and 28 reps at 150-pounds. As in the morning session, the Fastest Man Award went to a freshman. RB Wayman Bowden, 5-foot-7 and 183-pounds, of Out of the Door Academy in Florida had a 4.37 40, and showcased his speed during the 2006 season when he rushed for 900 yards during only 6 games of varsity action. The DL MVP went to sophomore Tyrone Martinez Dixon of Eastside High School in Florida. Dixon, 6-foot-1 and 250-pounds, has the potential to become a great defensive tackle, and showed impressive moves and athleticism. He also had a 4.94 shuttle, 5.53 40, and 16 reps at 185-pounds.
