These 5 offensive players showed great potential in 2020 and should look to make a name for themselves in 2021 on the offensive side of the ball!   [player_tooltip player_id="58778" first="Sammy" last="Roberts"] Jefferson High School 2022 QB Sammy showed great potential in his junior season. He showed great poise in the pocket and also showed that he can be mobile and escape the pocket when neccesary. He shows great arm strength and the ability to fit throws into tight windows with ease. He shows great footwork and mechanics and throws a accurate ball at all levels of the field. Look for Sammy to have a big senior season this upcoming fall.   [player_tooltip player_id="58848" first="Grant" last="Cochran"] Princeton High School 2023 QB Grant had a big sophomore campaign that really helped him shine within the state. He showed great mobility and was willing to fight for extra yards on carries. He showed a accurate ball at every level of the field and showed great arm strength to fit throws into tight windows. He led his receivers as well and even showed he can throw accurately outside of the pocket as well. Look for Grant to make a huge jump in his junior year.   [player_tooltip player_id="58849" first="Amir" last="Hairston"] Bluefield High School 2024 RB Amir showed great potential in his freshman year. He showed great speed and the ability to be a homerun scorer from anywhere on the field. He showed great patience and the ability to evade defenders and take off for the races and outrun the entire defense. Watch for Amir to have a monster sophomore year and start to put the state on notice with his play.   [player_tooltip player_id="58829" first="Roman" last="Pierson"] Martinsburg High School 2023 WR Roman should have a big junior year for Martinsburg. He showed great potential and the ability to rack up yards with his route running. He can run any route on the route tree and shows strong hands to be able to pull in touch catches as well. He's quick when running his routes and shows raw athleticism when making a play on the ball and seems to always be open giving his quarterback a reliable outlet to throw the ball too. Look for Roman to have a big junior year and take off.
