2019 Season Countdown: #59 German Green

175 lbs.
High school:
DeSoto (TX) DeSoto

I ranked Green #88 and said he would redshirt (LINK). He redshirted.
TTB Rating:
59

Boy, in retrospect that 59 seems a little harsh, but here we are going into 2019 and I still have yet to hear much about German Green. I don’t mean that in a harsh way, but injury and a lack of film prevented him from being scouted much in high school. Other than a vague rumor that the Michigan coaches thought German was a better player than his more highly regarded brother, Gemon, there’s not much to go on.

Going into the 2019 season, the safety position seems pretty solid. Josh Metellus returns as a starter, and the other safety starter will probably be junior Brad Hawkins…or junior J’Marick Woods…or freshman 5-star Daxton Hill. Add in 4-star freshman Quinten Johnson, junior utility man Jaylen Kelly-Powell, and redshirt freshman Sammy Faustin…well, this is a pretty deep position. I don’t think there will be any leftover snaps for Green on defense, but as a redshirt freshman safety, he should be spending some time running down the field on kickoff, at the very least.

Prediction: Backup safety, special teamer

    Deep implies reliable talent; we don’t have that. Hopefully the man outperforms hisblow rating

    ” … well, this is a pretty deep position.”
