Rivals.com national recruiting analyst Adam Friedman highlights a few of the best prospects that he saw in person this fall.
Stone has proven to be one of the most disruptive defenders in this class. The Oklahoma commit can wreck game plans from the inside of the defense, pushing offensive linemen around and consistently making plays in the backfield.
Stone is a strong run defender, who can quickly dispatch offensive linemen, and make tackles behind the line of scrimmage.
In passing situations, Stone uses impressive hand techniques to keep offensive linemen from slowing down his momentum on the way to the quarterback.

The top-ranked offensive lineman in the Rivals250 did not disappoint this season. Seaton is a devastating run blocker and a technical and patient pass blocker. He does a good job finishing his blocks and opens big lanes for running backs.
He’s also able to land key blocks down the field to spring his running backs for big gains. As a pass blocker, Seaton has the lateral quickness to keep outside rushers from getting to the quarterback and is able to redirect fast enough to stop countermoves to the inside.

It’s hard to build an offensive line prospect better looking than Sanders. The 2025 five-star is a great run blocker who has gotten much stronger over the last year. He can drive defenders backwards and is solid at the point of attack.
Pass blocking is where Sanders really shines, using his agility and sense of timing to keep defenders at bay. Sanders has sky-high potential and he has a chance to push for No. 1 overall in the 2025 Rivals250.

What’s left to be said about Robinson that hasn’t already been said? The top-ranked cornerback in the Rivals250 has the size, speed, technique and instincts to see the field very early in his career.
Robinson, a Georgia commit, excels in man coverage where he can shut down a No. 1 receiver by using press coverage or playing from depth and using his speed and physicality to deny his man the ball.
Robinson has a knack for getting his hands on the ball and creating momentum shifting plays.

Mathis is one of the more physically impressive prospects in the next recruiting cycle and he has continued to get better. He’s gotten much stronger since last season and added some solid muscle mass over that span.
Mathis is an incredibly explosive edge rusher who can consistently make plays in the backfield whether it’s a run or a pass. He’s shown a very good motor this season, chasing down ball carriers who run to the opposite side of the field.
