Most dangerous players remaining in Georgia high school playoffs
The sweet is among us in the Georgia High School football playoffs.
There are really good football players left striving for a state championship. There are elite players on the high school level that can take over a game and make a major impact for their team to help them advance deeper into the postseason.
Here are the most dangerous players in each classification.
6A
Valdosta quarterback Todd Robinson
The skinny: Robinson is the pure example of a dual threat quarterback. He will play defensive back at Georgia. But on Friday night, he’s dangerous with the football in his hands as a passer and as a runner.
Robinson has been clocked at nearly 23 miles per hour. If he gets rolling he can help Valdosta have a chance to pull an upset at Carrollton on Friday night.
5A
Lee County running back Ousmane Kromah
The Skinny: Kromah is a dominant ball carrier. Today you know he’s getting the football before he gets to the stadium.
The fact of the matter, is can you stop him? Kromah’s legs will determine how successful Lee County’s offense can be. Stop him and you have a shot. If he’s himself then he ruins your night.
4A
Creekside QB Cayden Benson
The Skinny: Benson is a name that has blossomed around the state as another true dual-threat playmaker at the quarterback spot.
He’s grown by leaps and bounds since the early portions of the season. Benson is playing good football as the post-season has arrived. The playoffs could provide opportunities for him to have explosive games on a big stage. Benson is nearing 2,000 yards passing and 1,000 yards rushing.
3A
Stephenson RB Jayden Johnson
The Skinny: Johnson is only a sophomore but he’s emerged as a premier playmaker at Stephenson. He’s got the ability to make plays in run game and in the passing game.

A big game and a big play by Johnson has the ability to change the direction of a game.
2A
Morgan County Jaylen Elder
The Skinny: Elder leads the state in receiving yards. Elder can change a game anytime he touches the football. Morgan County does a good job of getting him opportunities.
Elder is also dangerous in the return game.
Class 1A D1
Toombs County DB Lagonza Hayward
The Skinny: Hayward does everything for Toombs County. He’s an elite defensive back and can hurt teams with his speed on offense as well.
Class 1A D2
Bowdon TE/WR Kaiden Prothro
The Skinny: Prothro is a massive match-up problem. He’s 6’6′, runs like a gazelle and can block in the run game.
Prothro is a threat from anywhere.
3A Private
Prince Avenue RB Andrew Beard
The Skinny: There is nothing Beard can’t do as a focal point of an offense. He’s going to get his production. He can do it in the run game and in the passing game.
Prince Avenue’s offense features the talented sophomore and it makes the rest of the offense easier.
