PrepRedzone New York Showcase Honorable Mentions

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There was so much talent at the Showcase that it was so difficult not to continue making more than 3 All-Star teams. However, because some positions were thinner than others with New York Prospects (Less than 10 NY DL+RB vs. Over 25 NY QBs) I stuck with three and made a list of honorable mentions at each position. There were some positions where a bunch of players were in consideration and somewhere only one or two stood out to be that level above their competition. Regardless, in some capacity, these guys really impressed me during camp. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2>Quarterbacks</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["277895"],"_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='277895' first='Jake' last='Tripptree'] was really consistent with his throws at camp.
