One of only two 2028 prospects (current seventh-grade) to earn a First Team All-Camp selection, he was not quite at the level of the MVP but was clearly better than most of the group. The Virginia native had a really solid upfield burst, and is very direct with his 1v1s. At 5-foot-11 and 195-pounds, he did a good job of winning in 1v1 and being in a very competitive position once he beat the lineman. For a little context there, many guys were winning on the outside, but would essentially win themselves out of any tangible football position where a play would be made in an actual game situation.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["625174"],"_player_evaluations_1_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_1_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_1_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"Ohler was really solid all camp long, and was arguably to be the best overall athlete amongst the defensive lineman. At times was a little sloppy with his footwork and can clean up some other fundamentals, but he has four years of high school ball to sharpen those tools. Speaking of high school, Ohler is headed to perennial Pennsylvania powerhouse program, St. Joe's Prep, in Philadelphia. He measured in at 5-foot-11 and 215-pounds, and stood out during the 1v1s where his motor and relentless pass rush, was tough for the offensive line to stop. Ohler has the instincts and violent hands to really be a big time problem in HS. Also, has really impressive strength and consistently drive offensive linemen back. His rugby background was very evident in his on-field play.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["400876"],"_player_evaluations_2_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Gibbs was the most physically imposing Defensive Linemen at camp and has incredible length and size at every bit of 6-foot-4 and 241-pounds. The 2027 Virginia prospect was very fundamentally sound as a Defensive Linemen. No false steps, very efficient with his upper body movements. A little slow in INDY's but he was precise in his drills and reps. In 1v1s Gibbs won often just because his matchups lacked the size and strength to compete. However, Gibbs was winning because of his footwork and strength, not just his overwhelming size. His footwork was arguably the biggest take away from his performance, as that time in the gym as a promising basketball player, clearly carries over onto the gridiron.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["216110"],"_player_evaluations_3_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"Nitz was easily the top, most consistent performer of the offensive line/defensive line group. The South Jersey prospect dominated INDY's and stood out amongst the defensive lineman, for a second PRZ Next camp in a row. His lower body strength is really impressive also has very violent fast hands. Showed the best reactions and timing in his drills. Smooth athlete. In 1v1s Nitz was quick, violent, and in control. Incredible body flexibility helped him win on the outside with speed. Was able to win inside with really solid strength from his base and great hand work. He'll be joining Cayden Ohler at St. Joe's Prep in Philadelphia next year for high school ball. Not a bad start to the next generation of Defensive Linemen, for Head Coach Tim Roken and the defending state champs.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["602850"],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"Joining [player_tooltip player_id='510823' first='Kamari' last='Watson'] as the only two class of 2028 Defensive Linemen to earn a First Team All-Camp nod, Xzavier Chafin had himself a nice afternoon. The Massachusetts native showed solid length and did a really good job of using his upper body length to his advantage. In 1v1 Chafin was able to use his hand placement to keep linemen from getting their hands inside. Chafin performed well in INDY's and looked smooth as an athlete with above average fluidity and agility. Chafin was in the conversation for best upfield burst out of the linemen at camp. Lots of intriguing traits and a ton of potential. Each rep had flashes but not the full package, but he has the time and drive to put it all together. He was a well-liked kid.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63d8339d372f2"} /-->
