His ability to win over the top at receiver as well as set his team up well in the return game is one to keep an eye on this fall season. Being a part of a talented Mahomet-Seymour team, there will be a lot of opportunities for him to work one on one. Currently, he holds interest from the next level but doesn't have that first offer under his belt. If he's able to continue to impress as he has in his Junior season highlights that the first offer will come sooner than later. u003cemu003eu003cstrongu003eu003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/RogersQuentonu0022u003eTwitteru003c/au003eu003c/strongu003eu003c/emu003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"preview","anchor":"acf-block-6499fed402049"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_62fee5d4ecbe0","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["267703"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Mr. Salomon might be one of the more overlooked QBs in the state.

There are countless times when he makes something out of nothing to keep the chains moving and has some foot quicks to him as well. Currently, he holds no offers but does have some interest from the next level. With that being said, don't sleep on this young man as he can very well cause headaches for opposing defenses. u003cemu003eu003cstrongu003eu003ca href=u0022https://twitter.com/PaytonSalomonu0022u003eTwitteru003c/au003eu003c/strongu003eu003c/emu003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"preview","anchor":"acf-block-6499fed402088"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_62fee5ececbe1","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["136060"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Speaking of overlooked QBs, Mr. Martino is in the same boat. This young man's ability to stand in the pocket and get the ball off under pressure as a defender is in his face is impressive to say the least. Let's not discount his arm strength either as he can make all level throws (level 1, level 2, u0026amp; level 3). With that being said, he currently holds no offers but I expect that to change after his Senior season performance. Whoever ends up picking up this talented QB is going to be happy the next four years.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"preview","anchor":"acf-block-6499fed4020bf"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_62fee5faecbe2","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["252509"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Mr. Thomas is a versatile young man that can get it done on both sides of the ball.
