As stupid as this thread is, I will entertain it.

The best answer would be Cam Newton, he would easily dominate at any and every position on the field. That includes o-line, cb whatever hes just that athletic.

Now I must for actually taking this thread serious

WR- Megatron might be unstoppable, but you still need a good HS QB to throw to him in spots that he couldn't throw to anyone else.


No you don't. You need a kid to be 7 yards back in the shotgun, taking a 3 step drop, closing his eyes, and then throwing it as high and as far as he can. A 6'5" athletic receiver is unstoppable at that level.

A dynamic RB who can line up everywhere like Charles or McCoy is probably the best answer.

Second best is easily an athletic QB. Cam or Kap, probably.

1. cam
2. megatron: it doesn't matter if the qb is accurate, he just needs to get it near him and megaton would probably return every punt and he could also play on the dline against high schoolers

Except for kickers, punters and long snappers you could put any NFL player on the worst HS team and they would go undefeated

It's amazing how many peoe are saying this thread is stupid and going on to answer the question

The correct answer IMO is a RB who is physical enough to play LB or on the D line.

A QB, even one like Tebow or Cam does no good. There is no threat to throw because your pass catchers are scrubs and your oline is weak, so they would essentially be rushers.

Get an actual running back like AP or Lynch and let him play somewhere on the front 7.

Maybe not enough to turn a terrible team into a sure fire State Champ but should easily become a playoff team.

i'm surprised nobody has said Trindon Holliday bc he would never be caught... even most HS QBs can throw bubble screens and run jet sweeps

A guy like AP would also be a beast at LB. Teams would and could stop Holliday by double and triple teaming him.

I'm taking someone in a safety/OLB hybrid position and running back/WR.

Patrick Peterson may get my vote.


Don't even line him up at RB/WR, just direct snap go wildcat

I like this thread. Nothing wrong with having a little fun.

I think I'm going to allow myself a little homerism and say Patrick Peterson.

Special teams: Sure fire chance, especially in high school, to make an explosive play every time he touches the ball.

Defense: One of the best corners in the NFL, but would probably play more of a safety/outside linebacker role in high school ball. He'd be guaranteed to create turnovers and shut down whatever side of the field he lined up on.

Offense: Wildcat QB, end-arounds, bubble screens, deep routes, etc. He'd be able to move the chains at will and keep any drive going.


I wanted a defensive player first because I want those instincts mixed with someone who is used to constant tackling/contact. High school offenses are simple and are mainly constructed around athleticism, something PP definitely excels at.

My 2nd choice would be one of Cam/Kaep/Megatron/RGIII
