Derrick Rue 5'8,165 DB Class of 2018 Nimitz HS (TX) - All-American Report

Derrick Rue is ready to compete at a high level for our Scout Trout All-American Bowl and comes to us from the Great Football State of TEXAS! Knowing Texas ball like I do, this man is able to play Outside Linebacker for his team, at a extremely high level, at the size of a prime time corner back! On the first play of his highlight's, Rue is seen busting in the backfield, off of the edge and is able to make a beautiful form tackle in the backfield. Rue will work great a DB for team south, as you can see on the next play, as he is able to easily avoid the first defender and then is able to quickly wrap up the screen play. When evaluating Rue's overall performance this season, I really see him as a prime time Nickel back in a man press scheme or zone coverage. He will also be able to come hard off of the edge, as seen on the footage above, with his history at the OLB position. You could end up seeing him convert back down to OLB in the future, with a little added weight. All in all, I am extremely pleased that Rue will be bolstering Team South's Defensive Backfield and has accepted his Scout Trout All-American Invitation. The State of Texas is very dear to Scout Trout as he is enthralled with passion, determination and the massive relevance of our beloved sport. Scout Trout's Texas camp is being finalized in the next few weeks and we could not be happier to entrench in such a prestigious area for prime time BALLERS! Thanks Derrick for signing up and I cannot wait to work with you in Mobile, at the 2018 Scout Trout All-American Showcase-Bowl!
