was a familiar face to me as I had previously watched his tape and was really impressed. The Voorhees product certainly has every bit of size to compete with the biggest and best. Further, his size is something that can pan out at any of the five spots on the line; however, I do recall him playing center, which is a big bonus. Baumann had great bend. This is excellent for his college outlook, particularly as a center, as he must be able to snap-and-step as he protects the middle. He also has great balance, which allows him to continually fight for leverage and effectively work double teams with ease.. Lastly, and perhaps what I enjoy most about his game, Baumann keeps busy and is always looking for work and to get in on any bit of action.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6490e63e3da40"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["829394"],"_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":"Ironically, this next prospect who plays for Wall and is as every bit as big as a wall. Rogers was an imposing figure. His height and weight distribution made him one of the burliest linemen to showcase. The glimpses I caught of Rogers had me remark how he has an outstanding punch and recoil in his pass protection. His punch was powerful, stunning defenders as they absorbed the shock. Further, his recoil to reload was sharp as well. He is well coached and disciplined, as he kept his hands at-bay when the defender was at a distance, preventing himself from lunging and being off balance.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6490e63e3daa2"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["402253"],"_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":"Other than being the only New Yorker on today's eval, what else was Farhat the only one of ? He was the only rising freshman to make today's eval. The young Farhat is a great looking young prospect. He has the height, length, and frame to be a FBS-sized prospect. After four full years of Monsignor Farrell's Su0026amp;C program I am certain he will tone, bulk up, and bend a great deal - they do an awesome job with their talent there. Farhat did a nice job competing by never giving up on a play if he was beat, as well as being coachable. He took feedback from coaches and applied it immediately in his next rep. Further, he seemed to avoid reverting to bad habits as coaches' feedback seemed to stick as the afternoon continued.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6490e63e3daf9"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["344222"],"_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":"Taking the short trip down Route 9 from Woodbridge, I needed a double-take at Mena. Although he is a year younger, he and teammate [player_tooltip player_id='380413' first='Kevin' last='Rosario'] looked like absolute twins. Both trenchmen had very similar build and sculpt to their bodies. Mena is slightly taller, by an 1.5 to 2 inches or so, and moved very well for a young man that size. He had a kick-step that did not necessarily give the inside up, but Mena was very fast to cross back and drive if the rusher tried to take the inside. Once or twice I actually witnessed him completely dig out an inside slanter. This is a great indicator that Mena knows his strength and weaknesses and how to set himself up to win. I can imagine sense for the game would only be even more prodigious in the film room as he scouts his matchup. What I am praising about Mena is different than both his foot speed and speed of feet though; that is he can shift his body quickly to get in position to win. This is what made him shine to me.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6490e63e3db52"} /-->

Our event coverage of Coach Pennisi's PSR Showcase continues. First we will review positional breakdowns of prospects that caught my eye at each position. These breakdowns are only from my subjective on-site observations. They do not take into consideration film, highlights, or anything else.
