<p>Desnoyer out of The Westminister Schools was impressive at the NextGen Showcase. He displayed anticipation skills and explosive, downhill burst that could make him a star in zone-based scheme. Changes directions with ease and has the frame to hold up at any spot in the secondary. Desnoyer can flip his hips and run, with good top-end speed and the length to make plays on the ball.</p>

<p>Dolley is an athletic, strong corner who dominates receivers. He was very smooth in and out his breaks, no wasted movement. Has good ball skills to locate and attack the ball in the air. He was best press coverage corner at the camp hands down. He were separating from his competition during the showcase.</p>

<p>I love everything about Jennings, the Class of 2026 athlete is a dawg. He has that mentality that can't be coached. He is an hard working stud that have something to prove. His ball skills are good, and he plays with an extremely confident and competitive demeanor. Remember the name, [player_tooltip player_id='283871' first='Kamden' last='Jennings']!</p>

<p>Ridley is a very quick and very confident cover corner plays bigger than his listed size. He delivers quick, surprisingly powerful punches and using his natural quickness and change-of-direction ability to mirror on underneath routes. Exceptionally quick, with the feet and fluidity to mirror underneath, including in the slot against the two-way go. He stays low in his backpedal and explodes toward the ball, with an outstanding closing burst.</p>

He has the quickness, agile feet and fluid hips to mirror quickness and change direction underneath. He can track the ball downfield and gets his head around when playing in a trail position, and Williams shows excellent ball skills when breaking on a route.</p>
