Ace had a semi-breakout last year going for over 1000 yards and 10 touchdowns. I wrote about him prior t the start of summer impressed with his explosivness and deep speed for being more of a standout lacrosse player than a football player.
In that last article I wrote I mentioned that he has measurables similar to a player like J’Mar Chase. However, Ace’s route running isnt where it needs to be to succeed at the wide receiver position long term. He does have every other physical trait you want but the technical is sorely lacking.
Ace is making this list because if he makes significant strides in his route running this year he can crack the top 25 in the Rankings.
Paul is an interior defender who comes up big in key moments for DePaul im expecting to take a huge step forward this season and get a big jump in the rankings.
Vidal is a 6’3 280 pounds interior defender who can play anywhere from the 0 to the 4i position. He is strong against the run, showing the ability to defeat double teams, get off the ball quickly, and be stout at the point of attack.
We want to see Paul take a significant leap as a pass rusher in his senior year. He’s currently on the watch list but he will be a top 100 player by season’s end.
Highlights
Cj makes this list because with drastic improvement he can at least get off the watch list. As we previously wrote about CJ he is still at the raw stage of playing Quarterback as he just started playing this past season. However, I see enough from a physical standpoint that leads me to believe that he can make a significant step forward.
He should consider reclassing and getting with a trainer and working on the fundamentals. In any event with the dynamic nature of CJ’s game, him making a significant leap this year is plausible. Im setting an expectation of him to get off the watchlist and crack the top 100.
Gonzalez is a player that I’ve been impressed with for a while. At 6’1 200 pounds he shows all the solid fundamental traits to be a solid linebacker in the future. He has solid awareness when asked to drop in zone, and can make plays when the ball is near him. In addition, show the ability to read and react at a high level and excels when he has to fight through blocks and make one on one tackles.
Gonzalez still sits on our watchlist, but after the first couple of games played and the next rankings update, I fully expect him to make a significant jump.
Highlights
Playing out of position for the entire season Xavier Miles Xavier Miles 6'2" | 325 lbs | OL St. Peter's Prep | 2024 State NJ didn’t live up to the high expectations that he had going into last season. However, now going to the offensive line to play guard we will see what he can do with his 6’3 300lb frame on the interior offensive line.
All we have to go off of right now is what he’s done in camp season. And so far he’s looked good as far as blocking goes. He shows good feet, a solid base, and good leverage.
Miles still has solid offers from schools like Syracuse, Rutgers, Michigan State, WVU, and Boston College. He also is ranked number 60 in our rankings after the next ranking update, expect his ranking to be higher.
