Top 10 highest-rated Ohio HS football players of all time

No. 4 – Beanie Wells 

Wells’ 247 Sports profile shows he had a player rating of 0.9965. The 6-foot-1, 225-pound running back graduated from Garfield High School (Akron) in the Class of 2006. He’s ranked No. 138 on 247 Sports’ all-time list.  

Wells was always known for his speed (4.50 40-yard dash). It’s a huge reason why he was able to become one of the best rushers in Ohio State Buckeye history (3,382 rushing yards).

The 2009 first-round NFL draft pick was out of the league forever after just four seasons with the Arizona Cardinals (due to injuries). 

Today, the 34-year-old stays fairly low-key: his Instagram is private, but he is active on his public Twitter.
