Looking back at 2017: Myers earned multiple all-state honors following his senior season after being a key piece of the Bishop Dunne line that blocked for an offense that passed for more than 1,600 yards and rushed for nearly the same. A high school teammate of fellow 2018 signee Calvin Avery, Myers was ranked as a consensus top 60 guard in the country by Rivals, ESPN and 247Sports.

Looking ahead to 2018: Take a look at some recent social media posts, and it appears Myers has already slimmed down a little and toned up his big frame.
