Dwyer High School Palm Beach Gardens, FL
Biography: Elam’s versatility and size give him the ability to play a few positions at the next level. In the box, he has dabbled at linebacker, where he has a penchant for breaking through traffic and causing havoc in the backfield. His nose for the ball has made him effective in the secondary, and he is quick both laterally and downhill. He looks for contact, and loves making the big hit. As a junior, he recorded 91 tackles and nine sacks.
Selection Committee Quote: “He is this year’s version of Ronnie Lott. This guy hits like a ton of bricks. He is a leader on defense that makes all the calls and takes great angles to the ball.”
