CJ should accumulate a ton of points, throwing for a ton of yards and touchdowns. Carr is the easy choice for my first QB slot.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["247690"],"_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":"Jumping into the 2025 class, Bryce is a no brainer. Underwood is starting to garner the attention of every college across the P5 landscape, for good reason. This guy is a flat out playmaker, and would make fantasy GM's happy with his production.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_player":["206418"],"_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":"Heading to the class of '26, I'm taking u0022Tanku0022 Terry as my RB. Terry plays a vital role in a run first offense, and his volume is going to be huge. He's got the explosiveness to take anything to the house, and his playmaking ability would result in a ton of fantasy points.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_3_player":["253269"],"_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":"Another really explosive back that would be a constant point getter is [player_tooltip player_id='253269' first='Billy' last='Roberson II']. I think with his volume this season, and his ability to fall forward and always get positive yards, you would be foolish not to take this guy in any fantasy league.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":["190093"],"_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":"My first wideout off the board is [player_tooltip player_id='190093' first='Nick' last='Marsh']. The #1 receiver in the state, and a powerful offense that should put up a ton of points makes this decision a no brainer. We're just days from Nick's decision on where he will be committing, and whoever gets him is really getting an amazing talent that could end up playing on Sunday, and end up in the actual NFL fantasy football pool.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_player":["247706"],"_player_evaluations_5_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"Tashi is an incredible talent, and will be a big piece of an offense that was one of the best in the state a year ago. I don't think that will be slowing down one bit this season, and I expect him to be in the end zone even more this fall. This guy would be a steal on a fantasy football team, because he will be in the end zone basically every week, sometimes multiple times a week.","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_6_player":["248962"],"_player_evaluations_6_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_6_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_6_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"This is a layup pick, as Brady is one of the best TE's we've seen in the state in quite some time. The Michigan commit will be unstoppable once again, slashing through defenses and making crazy grabs all over the gridiron.","_player_evaluations_6_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_7_player":["248961"],"_player_evaluations_7_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_7_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_7_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"This was a tough choice, there were a lot of ways I could go with this pick. I decided to take Brody based on the fact that he he so impactful in the red zone. At 6'6 and having super sticky hands, this guy is always good for a back of the endzone grab over a defender, and I think it's a sure fire way to collect a ton of points.","_player_evaluations_7_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_8_player":["249806"],"_player_evaluations_8_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_8_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_8_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_8_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_8_evaluation":"I'm taking Nakai as a flex position, because this guy is an all purpose yard machine. This dude flat out chews up yards and touchdowns. He's a consistent threat to take one 75 yards to the house on any given play, and you just have to have him in the lineup just in case he does pop one off, as he tends to do.","_player_evaluations_8_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_9_player":["188031"],"_player_evaluations_9_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_9_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_9_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_9_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_9_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_9_evaluation":"If I could have 5 of [player_tooltip player_id='188031' first='Andrew' last='Dennis'] lined up on my offensive line, it would be tough to convince me we give up a single sack all year, and I think with the backs we have, we'd run all over the place on teams. The MSU commit is an easy choice, as he's an absolute beast in the trenches.","_player_evaluations_9_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_10_player":["80954"],"_player_evaluations_10_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_10_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_10_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_10_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_10_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_10_evaluation":"Much like my offensive line, if I could clone this guy and put 4 of them across the defensive line, good luck. You're likely not getting a pass off, and the run game will be non existent. Colorado is getting a freak athlete in there and Coach Prime is going to love how hungry Brandon is to compete. He's an easy choice to round out my high school fantasy football squad.","_player_evaluations_10_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":11,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64a326d50633a"} /-->
