<a href="https://t.co/wKmDd3SHaQ"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id="270936" first="Bryce" last="Enlow"] Linebacker, The Hun School</strong></a>
At 6’1 215 has the prototypical size for the position. He is a very instinctive player who has solid range. He shows no wasted movements when attacking the line of scrimmage. A very smart player who can get off blocks and make tackles at or behind the line of scrimmage.
The one trait that stands out is his quick reaction when diagnosing plays. Shows great ability to read and react to make tackles for loss and forces a lot of turnovers in the form of force fumbles.
In this age of football with the rise of RPO’s, and the increasing use of these plays. Linebackers who can play an instinctive brand of football while constantly being put in conflict is a rare skill set, that Enlow possesses and will be very useful as he progresses to higher levels of football.

[player_tooltip player_id="174107" first="Connor" last="Dietz"] is best summarized as a quarterback who is an athlete and not the other way around. Just finishing his sophomore season Dietz has so much more room to improve. Showing dual-threat ability to get the job done with his legs and his arm.
Has good arm strength. Able to drive most throws in the deep areas of the field. Able to deliver the ball accurately to receivers with opportunities for yards after the catch.
Due to erratic footwork, his deep ball can be all over the place. Ball placement can be more consistent; but for a quarterback coming out of his sophomore year, he has more than enough time with hard work, to be above average in all these areas.
He adds tremendous value as a runner Able to execute quarterback power concepts and able to gain extra yards through contact or due to his track background is able to destroy tackling angles of most defenders.
His dual-threat ability will be highly coveted by the time he is ready to go to college. The challenge for him is how will his decision making be under pressure in close tightly contested games.

[player_tooltip player_id="119354" first="Triston" last="Perez"] is a quarterback that can make something out of nothing. For a smaller quarterback has good accuracy targeting the middle of the field showing solid ball placement.
Shows average accuracy when throwing to the deep portions of the field. Puts the ball in danger too much on these throws but when he plays on time and in rhythm can complete any pass at any portion of the field.
His legs are a weapon. Has the speed to break away in the open field, also has the shiftiness to make you miss while forcing many missed tackles. He makes a lot of plays off-script. Which is a skill set only a few quarterbacks possess.
While that style of play is flashy and eye-popping; would like to see him play more in the structure of an offense. That style forces quarterbacks to hold on to the ball longer which always invites more pressure from the defense
Perez is a good quarterback. With some mechanical and decision-making improvements his best football could be ahead of him.
