<p><strong><em>Joshua Adams - RB - Bethlehem Christian Academy HS / @Joshua_5_Adams</em></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>A downhill, physical runner who can contribute on all four downs, Adams is a tough, gritty bruiser and an ultimate team player. Primarily used in short yardage situations, Adams utilizes his size, power and hard-nosed running style to convert third and fourth downs into first downs. He's looking to have a good year this upcoming season.</p>

<p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='275983' first='Jaiden' last='Daniels'] - RB - Commerce HS / @6Babygoat </em></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Daniels contact balance and strength pop immediately. He brings a pile with him and falls forward. Stays tight through the hole with clean feet and sharp vision. Fast enough to run stretch plays to the perimeter, and can gash the seam on inside zone. Drops his pads and maintains ball security when raking through defenders. Makes the correct cut when his hole opens and has the burst to turn into a big gain.</p>

<p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='407055' first='Jason' last='Jackson'] Jr - ATH - Central Gwinnett HS / @Jason_Jackson33</em></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Jackson displays lateral bounce to survey multiple gaps and tremendous footwork that leads to some really clean cuts. He's patient with his blockers and has the burst to shoot through rushing lanes once they open. Jackson isn't shy about finishing through contact and making sure he falls forward.</p>

<p><strong><em>[player_tooltip player_id='265189' first='Zeke' last='Clanton'] - RB - Lanier Christian</em></strong> <strong><em>HS / @ZekeClanton</em></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Clanton has jitterbug feet with crisp cuts in the backfield. Fluid in tight spaces, making the initial tackler miss, often behind the line of scrimmage. Scheme versatility with the ability to cut back on zone schemes and follow his blockers on gap or power runs. Vision to find the crease or bubble and acceleration to burst through for big gains. Smooth in the open field with the ability to cut across the grain. He runs with power, dropping his pads and falling forward.</p>

<p><strong><em>Quinton Knuckles - RB/WR - Meadowcreek</em></strong> <strong><em>HS / @QuintonKnuckle1</em></strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Knuckles displays elite acceleration and burst to accompany above-average straight-line speed. Knuckles is an explosive home run hitter who quickly blows past the defense's second level. He has quick, choppy feet that allow sharp cuts to switch from east-west to north-south. Knuckles uses his speed to beat defenders to the edge and turn upfield. </p>
