He's nimble enough to anchor down in pass protection and plenty big enough to maul in the run game. He gets off the line quick but keeps his center of gravity low, and his head up. He can turn and move guys any direction or march them straight down field but generates consistent pancake power and sees them through. He's agile enough to get to the second level and gleefully hits smaller players at good angles. Fehr is a great mover who plays ferociously and should attract several offers this fall.u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["643215"],"_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":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eLiberal started for Cascade Christian as a freshman this year, but you wouldn't know it by his size. He's already as big as some college lineman are, but his best quality is his balance. He has a great low center of gravity and his confidence in his lateral movement makes him hard to get around or penetrate as a pass protector. He takes great backward steps to anchor down and creates an ideal pocket for several seconds. He played very agile at 273 lb. and has attended several showcases since his freshman season ended. He can push players downfield and away from the play with a good angle and brute force. His next three years should see him near the top of his class' rankings, especially as he gets older and further recruited.u003c/spanu003e","_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":"[player_tooltip player_id='915281' first='Tanner' last='Stokes']","_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":"6'2u0022","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"2405","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"Mount Si","_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":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eStokes was tall for a center last year, overpowering shorter defenders with pure power. His work in the weight room shows up on every play, as once his hands get ahold of the defender, they're driven backwards by his enormous legs. He gets off as quick as any linemen and moves extremely well at 265 lb. He'll be as important as ever for Mt. Si, as they send two of the best linemen in the state to play D1 ball this fall- and Stokes could follow in their footsteps.u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_3_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='1108661' first='Charlie' last='Slavik']","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"6'7u0022","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"2405","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"Bishop Blanchet","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_3_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_3_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eSlavik has the biggest frame imaginable and constantly finds ways to take advantage of it. He can wrap up anyone he's down blocking and keep defenders a good two feet away in pass protection. He moves well with surprisingly adequate balance for his height and gets as wide as possible to make his leverage competitive. His size affords him a large toolbox, and he looks ready to keep adding strength into his senior season. He might not get as many pancakes, but Slavik is as hard to get around as any, and college football could bring his talents out even better. Expect college coaches to see this and recruit him heavily.u003c/spanu003e","_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":"Aidan Feil","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_4_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_4_player_details_height":"6'3u0022","_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":"Steilacoom","_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":"u003cspan style=u0022font-weight: 400u0022u003eFeil played mostly guard last year, but began to tap into the raw potential he has at tackle as well. He gets off well and stays in front of faster players, but his true specialty comes in the run game where he can road-grate players of all sizes. He can get hands on a defensive lineman before rotating to the second level and can take smaller players on with just his upper body strength. He's a willing puller and can execute good footwork in short areas, but there's still plenty of potential in his lower half to generate more consistent and controlled power. Look for Feil to take a major leap in technique and rise up recruiting rankings.u003c/spanu003e","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":5,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-63ec039c583ae"} /-->
