Earlier in the week, I posted by Top 12 prep football players for the Class of 2013.

Here is a list of some other rock solid gridiron studs from the upcoming senior class to keep an eye out for next fall:

Brandon Bean (Southfield WR) – This sly, sure-handed wideout runs perfect routes, has a GRADE-A work ethic and football pedigree and might wind up playing in the Big 10 before its all said and done on his recruiting

Sergio Perkovic (Birmingham Brother Rice DL) – The Warriors pass rush specialist will be a mighty tough blocking assignment come autumn……My man Perk is a force of nature on the line and will probably be the only Rice grid stud to start both ways next year

Josh Jones (WL Western CB/KR/PR) – Burney's boy JJ is a lockdown corner on 'D' and a shifty speed demon on the return game

Chaz Miller (Lake Orion WR) – Tall, strong and fast wide receiver that is a menace in the Red Zone  

Eddie Huckabee (FH Harrison LB/RB) – What a super motor this kid has!!! Huck is a heck of a talent on both sides of the ball!!!....Can you say PURE PLAYMAKER!!

Brandon Malinowksi (Novi Detroit CC LB) – Another workhorse defensive gem from SHAMROCKNATION

Ben Hart-Andrew McBride (RH Adams WR/CB/K&PR) – With Mr. Do Everything Tony Annese graduating, this terrorizing tandem of Highlander triple threats will be showing their stuff all over the field this fall

Jordan Degreffenreed-Connor Mohr (Farmington RB) – Might be the best Thunder and Lightning backfield duo in the OAA  

Nate Drews (RH Lutheran NW QB) – No question in Burney's mind, ND will be the top small school quarterback in the area in 2012

Eric Stubbs (AH Avondale WR/DB) – I look at Stubbs as Ray Tillman after his junior year, having shown glimpses of brilliance in the open field and ready to explode as a senior
