Out of the three decommits we had while Beamer had announced his retirement, this one seemed the most likely to recommit. Phillip Patterson, Bayside WR- we've followed his season most of the year, so I'll start with a re-post my previous assessment of him and link his new senior season highlight film below:
One thing's clear from his tape, if we did end up switching him to defense, he'd have to play free safety. He's got ball awareness, but his tackling form and choices are poor. That can obviously be taught/changed to some degree, but some of it is an attitude thing as well.
