Winona State Prospect Camp: Standouts, Part IV

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>WINONA, MN</strong>-- It was an action-packed day in Winona last Friday afternoon and with over 120+ prospects to evaluate, we had to make this one of our only five part series from all the talent swarming all over Altra Federal Credit Union Stadium. We dive into the IV standouts with a handful of 2023 prospects still looking for that first offer, 2025s on the rise, and 2024s that we cannot wait to see even more come fall seaosn. Have a look at Minnesota and Wisconsin prospects that stood out in our eyes!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"id":"block_62f0703b69f6e","name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["309223"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"u003cpu003eHarrison is an LB prospect that is no stranger to me from my area, so although I have seen him a handful of times in in-game settings, it was great to see what he could do in a camp setting. Harrison showed a long-striding ability to get from point a to point b in the early reps of Indy drills. I would love to see Harrison grow with the instinctive ability of his footwork as we look into the 2022 season. He shows a solid sliding ability getting off his sheds quite quickly, and those hips turn swiftly right to the ball with his solid balance. He shows off reactive vision when turning his head on an option play to adjust to the outside lane. You can tell that he's gotten stronger on his first step to the ball since we evaluated him last Spring, and if he can keep growing on that skillset in the 2022 season, I certainly see him playing on Saturdays with his 6'2 size and upfront tackling ability in the inside box.u003c/pu003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["234776"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"u003cpu003eJonah showed off that burst I have been waiting to watch in-person late in the 1v1s reps at the Winona State prospect camp. He also showed an impactful change of direction with his route-running at the Warriors camp. You could just tell by the reps, that Jonah's instinctive nature on his routes will resonate well when he gets into the 2022 season and can show off his craft as an incoming sophomore for Rushford-Peterson. He's not the biggest guy on both sides oft he ball, but I love this kid's determination with his vision on both sides of the ball. From the linebacker spot, Jonah uses all that burst we saw at the Winona camp and creates chaos in the backfield when he's left unblocked. He demonstrates good downhill ability on all three field levels as it creates substantial leverage, especially on defense and special teams. If there was a young prospect that was all about the competitive motor vs. size, Jonah would fit that narrative 100%. Excited to see what this young man can do for R-P in his upcoming sophomore season, as there is a lot of juice in Jonah's tank that is yet to be seen.u003c/pu003e","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"Owen Marshall","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"5'10u0022","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"2496","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"Pulaski (WI)","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_2_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"u003cpu003eI came away impressed with the change of direction Owen showed off in the early reps of the Winona State prospect camp. As an incoming junior, Owen shows off good physicality on first contact and also shows quick feet to get from the second level to the first level with that change of direction mentioned. Where do I like him most? The fullback position, as Owen, shows some excellent pad level as an upfront blocker leading the charge to open up lanes in the run game, as there is a lot to like about his contact in grinding in the trenches around the goal line. From a development standpoint, I would love to see how fast Owen is with his shedding ability from that linebacker spot, as he does show a solid first step; I would love to see how his engagement is on tape when we flip the script in the 2022 season.

The speed of his hands is what drew my attention, as I thought he had some of the quickest hands from the TE group I got to watch in Winona. Thatcher's tape shows some good elusiveness when you look into his future, as he moves well for that 6'5 frame he puts together. He also shows a long reach that shows promise with his reach ability into the trenches. I also love the range he can cover, as he runs like a deer when getting into that outside angle of the field. With that pass-catching ability, I see Thatcher as a TE at the next level, but he's undoubtedly showed off some game from the EDGE spot with some development with the speed of his first step.u003c/pu003e","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"Wesley Elliott ","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"2023","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"6'7u0022","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"2405","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"Eau Claire North (WI)","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_4_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_4_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"u003cpu003eWesley was a first-look prospect in the offensive line group that showed some potential in the 1v1 reps I watched. At 6'7 260 pounds, there is no doubt this young man showed off what size he brought to the table at the next level. He has some raw development with his hands, as I thought he has some untapped growth when watching his hands in 1v1s and his pad-level with them. His junior tape mostly shows reps from the defensive line, and it was difficult to spot him on tape until I got a little bit deeper into it. He did show that he has some very sizeable reach with that wingspan of his, as he made tackles that would be very tough for other defensive linemen to make with the average size for the position. An impactful senior season will pay dividends for this young man as far as the next level goes.u003c/pu003e","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["242371"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"u003cpu003eNate was another nice prospect from Pine Island that showed off some sound pad-level from the reps I watched from him in Indy drills and 1v1s at the Winona State prospect camp. His punch off the snap showed off good velocity and he showed athletic traits with his 6'3 225 pound frame that looks strong for his future growth into the 2022 season. This incoming junior is a long athletic defensive linemen that I cannot wait to see the tape on after the 2022 season!u003c/pu003e","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["348635"],"_player_evaluations_6_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"Eric showed some great attacking ability in the Indy drills at the Winona State prospect camp. His ability to work into the tight angles to attack the hip of the ball carrier was a consistent skillset he showed thru the duration of the reps I got to watch at camp. Eric's tape mostly shows off his reps at WR, but those reps correlate nicely to the linebacker spot, as he shows that consistent level of angle work when it comes to his blocking ability. Eric does a solid job of keeping his pad-level steady in almost all the reps he puts out on film, as he also shows capable pass-catching ability on tape. Just picked his first offer here recently, and there's no doubt in my mind that his recruiting will pick up going into the 2022 season as there's a lot to like about this kid's mentality of doing the detail-oriented items well on the field that sometimes doesn't show up on tape.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_7_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_7_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_7_player_details_player_name":"Carver Cram","_player_evaluations_7_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_7_player_details_graduating_class":"2023","_player_evaluations_7_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_7_player_details_height":"5'9u0022","_player_evaluations_7_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_7_player_details_position":"2495","_player_evaluations_7_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_7_player_details_school":"Oshkosh West","_player_evaluations_7_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_7_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_7_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_7_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_7_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"Our Prep Redzone Wisconsin subscribers might know this name well after his showing at our Prep Redzone Wisconsin spring showcase this past fall. Carver showed a continued growing burst in the early reps of the Winona State prospect camp, and allowed him to put together the same solid reps into 1v1s later in the day. Carver has consistent stuck out with that instinctive movement he plays with at the defensive back spot, as his change of direction is very elusive and he can get to the ball on the other side of the field quickly. Carver plays with a ton of finesse for his size, as he has a craving ability of physicality on his tackles in his 5'9 175 pound frame. I also love his ability to carve into the next level of the field and  grind into the trenches to assist in the run game. The range this young man brings from inside to outside is substantial, and should certainly create more college football attention come this fall!","_player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":8,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"align":"","mode":"preview"} /-->
