Sleeper of the Day
Jakevion Beaty
2025 Stockbridge
Defensive Tackle
The state of Georgia has a deep defensive tackle class, and Beaty certainly ranks among this talented group. The 6’2″ 280 lbs. senior pops out of his stance, showing excellent timing. Good gap containment, he uses his hands well to occupy multiple blockers at times. Beaty has a good energy to the football, even cleaning up a few tackles way downfield. That says a lot about his motor. The Stockbridge defensive lineman’s ability to gauge the snap, and jump it consistently helps him win at the line of scrimmage. Couple that with active hands and a fairly quick swim move, and then you see that Beaty checks a lot of boxes. He does need to be quicker laterally and more explosive at the point of attack. A 255 power clean suggests there is ample room for improvement. Beaty is a good tackler tho, he gets fairly low and wraps up the attempts securely, so the ball carrier goes down quickly. With so many teams looking for defensive tackles late in this recruiting cycle, Beaty is a hidden gem currently with no D1 or D2 offers, which is a major miscalculation by evaluators. That’s what makes him a sleeper, and a prospect worth watching.

Three ‘n Out
Buford’s dynamic skill player Jordan Allen was named WSB Athlete of the Week. The Louisville commit has been playing great football this season, making highlight catches and being a nightmare on the special teams. The senior is having an All-State caliber season so far and will be leaned on again this Friday in a mega top-10 matchup against Collins Hill.
Thank you @wsbtv & @NelsonHicksWSB for Athlete of the week! @WSBTVsports @buford_football @CoachApp35 pic.twitter.com/QFxrRInijJ

Auburn TE commit Hollis Davidson posted new film from his senior year. The explosive receiving tight end has looked physical blocking on the perimeter, doing a great job of finishing his blocks; some great progress in that area. As a receiver, his huge catch radius and fluid breaks out of his routes pose a ton of upside at the next level. Auburn fans should be excited about Davidson.
Played 5 so far, love this team!

As reported above, Newton SR DL Wayne Patterson was offered by Temple this week. The Jackson State commit announced his pledge during the summer on June 21st, but with the new FBS offer, could this create a wrinkle in his recruitment? Patterson has an excellent frame at 6’3″ and 270 lbs., and while playing on the deepest defensive line in the state, he is a standout with his intensity and versatility wherever needed. Wouldn’t be a surprise to see more FBS programs joining Temple in offering, so stay tuned.
Blessed to receive an offer from Temple university 🔥🔥 @CoachSkelton06 @Bre_one55 @Coach_DJHill @CoachHARDen52 pic.twitter.com/vMQhQgtYUe
