Five Upstate New York QBs to Watch

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>All these Quarterback's below are all special and play the game of football in their own way. Some rely on their big arms to make incredible plays, and some rely more on their legs. However, what they all have in common is that no matter what the cost is each one of these QBs were able to put on a show this past season in the upstate NY to give their team a chance to walk away with the win. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["450893"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":621104,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eOne of my favorite QBs and high school football players that I have watched on film is [player_tooltip player_id='450893' first='Bodie' last='Hyde']. This is a huge athlete at the QB position that is a giant threat in the ground game. He was the leading rusher for Elba High School with 113 carries for 1,244 yards. A true playmaker that ended the season with 29 total TDs. This is a 2 time AGR player that stands in a 5'11” and weighs 190-pounds.u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eThe physical nature that he possesses while running with the football was magnificent. Between lowering his shoulder to pick up a first down and delivering deadly stiff arms to go the distance, Hyde truly is a special QB with the ball in his hands. Bodie has an amazing ability to make defenders miss in space and shed through tackle attempts. The pure knowledge and ability to run the read option at an effective level was masterful to watch. In the read option, he did an outstanding job at making the correct read on the edge player to decide to pull the ball or not.  u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eTurning to Hyde's pure passing ability, he gets the ball out of his hands quickly. He does not try to do too much and takes the open option in front of him. Bodie was able to hit some big throws deep down the field for 6 as well. u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eFlipping to the defensive side of the ball, Hyde also plays ILB and his quickness to diagnose a play was superb. The ability to be aggressive, deliver a tackle with power, but with a clean form is what you want and what you get with him. Hyde ended the year racking up 81 total tackles. u003c/spanu003eu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eAfter winning back-to-back sectional titles, Hyde has a big goal of winning sectionals for the third year in a row. He spoke about how there will be new and young leadership to contribute on the team for Elba. Bodie looks forward to rolling into his senior season with this team. u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eTwitter: @BodieHydeu003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eInstagram: @bodie_hydeu003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eHudl Profile: u003c/spanu003eu003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/profile/13355450/Bodie-Hyde/aboutu0022u003eu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/profile/13355450/Bodie-Hyde/aboutu003c/spanu003eu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63d1dd2c856f7"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/13355450/63b9c994b3d31e12bc22e93a' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63d59bc9f41bb"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["521408"],"_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":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eThe blazing rocket arm on this QB from East High School really makes you raise your eyebrows with absolute shock.

I had straight chills and so much pure enjoyment watching u003ca href=u0022https://prepredzone.com/player/zymier-jackson/u0022u003eZymeir Jacksonu003c/au003e play the QB position. Jackson is 6'1”, weighs 170-pounds, and will be going into his senior year this upcoming season. This is a QB with a rare arm talent that can pick apart any defense if he keeps improving every day.u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eWhen dropping back from under center or in shotgun, Jackson does an outstanding job of having clean footwork, staying balanced within the pocket, and then finally delivering a strike to the open receiver. If protection would unfortunately break down, he did a substantial job of getting out of trouble with his legs, and making a throw on the run. Additionally, the ability to rush for necessary yardage was put on full display throughout his tape. A handful of times he was able to rush to pick up the first down and in the process, make a defender miss in space.u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eJackson was named first team All-Star and AGR. He was also an honorable mention for first team All-State. This is a talented QB that has dreams of playing the game of football at the highest level. The latest goal he has on the mind is to win a state championship. I am very excited to see Zymeir play this fall.  u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eTwitter: @u003c/spanu003eu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eZymierjackon2u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eInstagram: @u003c/spanu003eu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003ezymierjackson5 u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eHudl: u003c/spanu003eu003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/profile/16704012/Zymier-Jacksonu0022u003eu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/profile/16704012/Zymier-Jacksonu003c/spanu003eu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63d59bca00069"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/16704012/6371bb4cab92f20aac8a7d82' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63d59bca000c9"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["400790"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":622216,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"u003ca href=u0022https://prepredzone.com/player/brayden-dohse/u0022u003eBrayden Dohseu003c/au003e is a 5'11” QB from East Rochester High School that has a robust ability to place a football with extreme touch all over the yard. Plenty of times on film Dohse was able to hit a receiver in the back corner of the end zone for six. This is a QB that weighs in at 170-pounds and was able to throw for 1,363 yards with 18 TDs this past season.rnrnThe rare ability to make a throw off-balanced on the run happened numerous times throughout this past year. That talent to make an accurate throw on the run was put on full display in the red zone. Dohse is a true playmaker at the QB position and his passing accuracy to hit targets outside the numbers was impressive to see. This is a QB that has a lot of experience passing out of the pistol formation. One action for certain is that Brayden is not afraid to fit the football into tight windows. He will attack when LB's are lined up on TE's or WR's running in the middle of the field. Taking that mismatch is what you want to see out of your starting QB.rnrnDohse has such an effortless throwing motion that is so much fun to watch. It is like he just flicks the football off the release with no effort. He somehow places the football where only the receiver can make a play on the ball. For the upcoming season, Brayden has goals of winning a Section V championship, being a 1st Team Section V and AGR player. Finally, Brayden wants to break the single season passing yards record at his high school. Itu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003e should be an interesting senior season to watch for #3. u003c/spanu003ernrnTwitter: @BraydenDohsernrnInstagram: @brayden_dohse25rnrnHudl Profile: u003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/profile/11536309/Brayden-Dohseu0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/profile/11536309/Brayden-Dohseu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63d59bca001b0"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/11536309/637d7b0c32e740069c6725af' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003ern","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63d59bca001ea"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["307380"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":["override_image"],"_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":622305,"_player_evaluations_0_player_featured_image":"field_62f141137ead9","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eu003ca href=u0022https://prepredzone.com/player/tyler-martinovich/u0022u003eTyler Martinovichu003c/au003e is a dual threat QB from Brighton High School that ended his junior season going 81/149 with 1,171 passing yards, 18 passing TDs, and had only 2 INTs. On the ground, he had 82 carries for 302 rushing yards, and had 3 TDs. Tyler is a big QB for his age standing in at 6'4” and weighing in at 190-pounds. When it comes to this upcoming season, he wants to break some of Brighton's single season passing records, win sectionals, and make a run at the state's championship game. u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eI was so impressed with his ability to turn a broken play into something with his legs. Multiple times Martinovich was able to scramble out of the pocket to pick up the necessary yardage to move the chains and more. When running the read option, this is a QB that is a huge threat to take the play to the house for 6. The amount of times Tyler was able to make defenders miss in space with a simple juke move was incredible to see. u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eMartinovich is not going to put the football in harms way in the air. He does an outstanding job at reading his keys, getting the ball out of his hands quickly, and taking the open receivers underneath. Tyler was able to make some big time throws deep down the field and in the intermediate level where the defenders were lurking. On play action, he does an outstanding job at selling the run and then making an accurate strike on the run. In addition to QB, Martinovich does play CB but coming into his senior season, I'm excited to how he improves his game at the QB spot.u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eTwitter: @TylerMartinovi1u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eInstagram: @Tyler.Martinovichu003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eHudl Profile: u003c/spanu003eu003ca href=u0022https://www.hudl.com/profile/15575007/Tyler-Martinovichu0022u003eu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003ehttps://www.hudl.com/profile/15575007/Tyler-Martinovichu003c/spanu003eu003c/au003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63d59bca002ca"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/15575007/636a98d84210b6012ca5de8b' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63d59bca00309"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":621102,"_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Benjamin Newman","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'1u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2409","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Aquinas Institute","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eThis past year, Benjamin Newman was a sophomore 4-game varsity QB for Aquinas Institute High School.

This is a QB that was able to hit those deep over the shoulder throws accurately. I was impressed by the ball placement on majority of his throws. He was confidently and consistently placing the ball where only the WR could make a play. Benjamin can make any throw on the field if it is deep, intermediate, or short with velocity. The release of the football is very quick and nimble.u003c/spanu003ernrnu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eAdditionally, Newman's footwork in his drop backs from under center, or even in the gun is very clean. The ability to stay balanced, slide out, and complete his fluid throwing motion on the move was very impressive. He can even scramble for a first down to keep the chains moving. When operating directly inside the pocket, he does a great job of standing strong and delivering strike after strike. u003c/spanu003eu003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eNot only for this upcoming season but the future as well, Newman has set goals that he wants to win sectionals and state titles the next two years.
