Just to pimp my guy, Jackson Powers-Johnson, obviously he has one of the best football names in the draft.
He is young having just turned 21 in January. And in his short successful CFB career has already started a big time college football game at DT and won the Rimington Trophy awarded to the best center in the nation.
I know it’s just high school, but holy shit his high school career write up is comically attractive if you are looking for an impactful football player to add to your team.
