<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We have discussed the position group at the quarterback position with the previous classes. The 2026 position group at the quarterback position has the possibility of being a deep position. Several potential division one prospects exist in this grouping. In today's article, we are going to look at the signal caller position and give you some 2026 quarterbacks to watch out for in 2023.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='202575' first='Kane' last='Archer']-Quarterback-Greenwood</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='202575' first='Kane' last='Archer'] is a quarterback that has caught the attention of numerous division one programs across the country. Archer has the arm strength and accuracy that scouts are looking for in a division one quarterback. He has able to fit the football into some incredibly tight windows. An area of his game that does not get the credit it deserves is his mobility in and out of the pocket. Archer knows when he needs to escape the pocket and is not afraid to pick up yards on the ground by using his legs. Archer's recruitment is going to be an interesting to watch over the next few years. He has the potential to do big things at the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='204462' first='Dax' last='McMellon']-Quarterback-Mena</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Mena signal caller is a prospect that is going to open plenty of eyes over the next few months. McMellon does a great job of moving around in the pocket and buying time to make the throw down the field. He is a quarterback that does an impressive job of keeping his eyes down the field. McMellon does an excellent job of being able to throw on the run. The Mena quarterback is a prospect to watch out for at the quarterback position over the next couple of seasons.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='203768' first='Drew' last='Davis']-Quarterback-Benton</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='203768' first='Drew' last='Davis'] is another signal caller from the state of Arkansas that has opened plenty of eyes over the past few months. Davis is not afraid to step up into the pocket and make the throw down the field. He has a strong arm and does an impressive job of being able to stretch the defense vertically. Davis is a good quarterback that throws well on the run as well as good command of the pocket. Davis is another 2026 quarterback that folks will want to keep an eye on over the next couple of seasons.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='401198' first='Kemp' last='Keller']-Quarterback-Pulaski Academy</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Pulaski Academy Bruins do a terrific job of producing talented quarterbacks. [player_tooltip player_id='401198' first='Kemp' last='Keller'] is going to be the next Pulaski Academy quarterback that scouts are going to want to keep an eye out for this season. As a freshman, Keller threw 30 touchdowns and just four interceptions on the season. Keller does a great job of extending the play and keeping his eyes down the field. He is always looking to make the throw. Keller is an accurate passer and does not have a problem of stretching the field vertically. The Pulaski Academy signal caller has the potential to light up Friday nights over the next few seasons.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='393516' first='Parker' last='Nix']-Quarterback-Bentonville West</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bentonville West is doing a great job of producing talented signal callers. [player_tooltip player_id='393516' first='Parker' last='Nix'] has a strong arm and can fit the ball into some tight windows. Nix does an impressive job of moving around in the pocket and extending the play to make throw. He is another quarterback that does not have trouble throwing when on the run. One facet of his game that will open some eyes is his ability to pick up yards on the ground. Nix is not afraid to scramble to extend the drive. Nix is going to be a quarterback to watch in what is always a tough 7-A West.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
