Meanwhile, there is no one better at playing the deep ball than DeVonte Holloman (Rock Hill, S.C./South Pointe). He has amazing athletic ability for a safety who weighs more than 210 pounds. He has a great break on the ball when playing downfield and times the interception perfectly.

Holloman is so effective as a pass-defender in part because he has been a quarterback. His experience at that position helps him understand coverages and read route progressions. At the same time, don't think that this productive football player can't stop the run. Holloman attacks the sweep and sprint-out with speed and a sense of urgency.
