The offseason has officially begun, and player development is the main focus. Having a strong offseason can often lead to success in the fall, and 7v7 continues to be an important tool in that development, especially for skill position players.
MOB Elite recently held tryouts and featured several standouts who will be names to know this offseason. The group included a mix of rising high school talent and next-up middle school prospects who all made strong impressions.
High School Standouts
Keith Walker | DB / WR
North Crowley HS
Class of 2029 (Freshman)
Walker has good length with clean footwork and smooth hips. He sees the field well at safety and came away with an interception during the 7v7 portion of the tryouts. At receiver, Walker showed strong hands and clean route running, highlighting his versatility on both sides of the ball.
Sirr-Kellen McClendon | DB / WR
Burleson Centennial
Class of 2028 (Sophomore)
6-foot-2, 185 lbs
McClendon is a smooth route runner with strong hands and quickness off the ball. He uses his length well in tight coverage and understands how to get open. On film, he is a reliable target and earned 7-5A Division I Honorable Mention WR recognition this past fall.
Montreal Geiger | WR
Arlington HS
Class of 2029
6-foot-1, 150 lbs
Geiger has good length and strong hands, catching several passes in traffic during the 7v7 period. He showed good quickness throughout the session. On tape, he is a threat as a return man, displaying wiggle in the open field and the speed to turn a play into a touchdown.
Middle School Prospects to Watch
Elijah Mobley | WR
Crowley MS
Class of 2031
Mobley was one of the more intriguing prospects at the tryout regardless of age. He has great length and a large catch radius, paired with long-stride speed. During drills, he flashed fluid movement, clean footwork, and advanced route running, along with the ability to stretch the field. He competed with the high school group and held his own, showing major upside.
Gavin Porter | QB
Class of 2031
Porter impressed with a strong arm and the ability to stay balanced with a solid throwing base. He consistently pushed the ball outside the numbers and showed good touch on deep passes. Porter also demonstrated confidence making throws into tight windows.
Rafeal Dangerfield Jr. | WR / DB
Class of 2030
Dangerfield Jr. runs clean, crisp routes and is quick and explosive off the ball. He has strong hands, fluid hips, and is shifty in space. On tape, his burst and speed stand out, and when the ball is in his hands, he is a playmaker.
In eight games, Dangerfield Jr. accounted for 16 total touchdowns, recorded an interception, and produced over 800 total yards from scrimmage, underscoring his impact on both sides of the ball.
The Wrap Up
MOB Elite is an organization to watch this offseason on the 7v7 circuit. The program has several prospects to keep an eye on who will be names to know moving forward.
