Nehki Meredith // DB // Virginia beach, VA

I had the chance to chat with Nehki Meredith a 5'11 175lb 4-star Safety out of Virginia Beach, VA. After watching some tape on him this is what I noticed. He has a knack to be around the ball and more importantly make game changing plays. He possesses a great break on the ball after it's thrown and from what I can tell has great hands as well.  Nehki does not back down from coming down into the box and getting involved in stopping the run game. Although slightly taller, he reminds me of ​Tyrann Mathieu coming out of H.S. with his constant presence around the ball (VIDEO), causing turnovers (VIDEO), and game changing performances. Oh and by the way. The tape I reviewed was from his Sophomore year. 

Also, for just being a Junior in H.S., he seems to be extremely mature as you will see in some of his answers below. He has at least somewhat of a direction on where/what he wants to do with his life which is more than most of us could say at the age of 16/17.  I was very impressed with Nehki both with our on the field and off the field discussions.
