The Wilmington/Jacksonville combine was one of 2010's smallest, but considering North Carolina is quickly becoming a talent hotbed, the size of the fight in the dog was much larger than the dog itself.
Dominick Johnson of Panther Creek HS was the Freshman Overall MVP. During the 1 on 1's, Johnson wrecked havoc on the offense, using his good recovery speed and quick hands to bat down a number of passes. At 6'1 154, Johnson also had an 8'5 broad jump.
Steven Schaffel (Pasquotank County) used his size to his advantage during 1 on 1's, taking home the Sophomore OL MVP. Schaffel is 6'1 278 lbs of mean.
Chances are Chance Shepard (Eugene Ashley) is going to lead his team a long way. The 6'1.5 185 lb QB was the Sophomore Overall MVP and Leadership award winner. Shepard ran a 4.25 shuttle, threw a good ball, had a terrific release point and is a vocal leader. He definitely possesses the qualities of a top notch QB.
Christopher Bradshaw has terrific talent and is a dual threat running back. The 5'8.5 172 standout won the sophomore RB MVP after impressing with his 8'9 broad jump, 4.31 shuttle run, bench pressing 155 lbs 26 times and did a great job during 1 on 1's. He runs hard and has good hands, giving us little doubt that he has more than a serious ground game.
North Brunswick's Keilin Rayner, the Sophomore DL MVP and Strongest Man, is a bit light for a lineman, but has outstanding athleticism for a player at his position. At 6'2.5 210, Rayner Had an 8'10 broad jump, bench pressed 185 lbs 18 times, ran a 4.63 40 and used his slickness to his advantage during 1 on 1's. He is quick, explosive and has good hands. With a good weight program, Rayner is one to look out for.
Jevonte "King" Jones was the best sophomore athlete and the fastest man of the session. At 5'11 168, Jones had a 34 inch vertical, 10'8 broad jump and ran a 4.49 40 en route to winning the Combine King award. Jones has physical gifts that very few football players can claim.
Terrell Stanley (South Brunswick) was the DL MVP of the junior session. The 6'1 254 lb standout had an 8'6 broad jump, bench pressed 185 lbs 20 times and was a monster on the gridiron during 1 on 1's. Stanley has solid strength and understands how to play the game.
Eugene Flowers sprung to life at the combine, winning the Junior LB MVP. The 6'0 212 lb Richmond HS star had a 31 inch vertical, 8'9 broad jump, ran a 4.51 shuttle and was consistent during 1 on 1's. As funny as it sounds, Flowers has the necessary tools to bloom into a star.
