That is where our spotlight is aiming in this article. The top new addition to every position group. Get to know these kids early. They are sure to make Friday night impacts in the very near future. Let's get started with our best new addition at QB!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["948097"],"_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":"The QB position looks like it is in good hands for years to come at West De Pere.

Behind him it looks like QB2 and Top 10 talent [player_tooltip player_id='948097' first='Patrick' last='Griesen'] is waiting for his time. Patrick has already developed a solid 6'2u0022 175 lbs frame. The young signal caller also looks well on his way towards being a technician at the position. He has quick feet, keeps his feet and eyes working together, and his arm talent gives him the ability to attack every level of the field with velocity. He has a very bright future at the QB position.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64dabb0da8a91"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17758453/632638d4dfd97106449d6d38' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64dabb0da8b04"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["948090"],"_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":"Our top addition at the RB position is also our new #1 overall player. The 5'8u0022 165 lbs '26 is a special talent. He has elite track speed that gives him the speed to pull away in the open field. His instincts with the ball in his hands already jump off the screen as he picks his way through traffic and sets up blocks. Siner's lateral agility and burst/acceleration are elite traits as well. He has already proven to be very elusive and difficult to contain, even when it looks like he has been corralled. Siner already holds one FBS offer, look for him to fully breakout this year with a monster season for a talented Arrowhead offense and team.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64dabb0da8ba8"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/16289313/631ea291f56a7c054ca84a3f' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64dabb0da8bd9"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["948101"],"_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":"The 6'1u0022 sophomore has my attention heading into 2023. His freshman tape is fun to watch. He instantly stands out from the crowd with his size out on the perimeter. Aiden demonstrated good body control and a strong knack for knowing how to use his body to box out DBs at the catch point. Elinsky also seems to be advanced in the athletic side of the game as well. His speed allowed him to stretch the field and turn the quick passing game into big plays. It will be interesting to see what role he carves out this year and beyond on a talented Bay Port roster.

One of them that was just added during this update is the Fennimore OT [player_tooltip player_id='948100' first='Corbin' last='Demo']. A big reason for his quick rise is his elite size. Corbin is 6'5u0022 and is already well on his way to filling out that frame and adding strength to it. Watching the tape, Corbin's pass blocking is something to get excited about. He demonstrates nimble feet that allow him to move laterally as he mirrors the edge rusher. The big man uses his long arms to get first contact and clamp on. Watching him flip the switch from pass protection to run blocking is fun to see. Demo shows that bully mentality as he tosses defenders around and looks to finish them into the ground. He is a raw prospect, but there is a lot to work with and a lot of time to develop.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64dabb0da8d0c"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17802541/63520ddc4206ff0d6855150e' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64dabb0da8d36"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["948106"],"_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":"SJCA now has two exciting DL in the Class of 2026 rankings. The newest member is our highest debuting DL prospect. Sincere is a 6' 230 lbs sophomore who actually played both ways in 2022. On offense, he was a dominating run blocker who was able to create a lot of movement in the trenches. However, where his traits really shine is on the DL. From there Sincere is able to flash his quick get off at the snap and the way he transitions that burst into power. That power led to him getting a lot of penetration and wrecking havoc all over the backfield. Sincere's range adds to his disruptiveness as he is able to chase down plays outside the tackle box. I'm excited to see what he does as a sophomore.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64dabb0da8db7"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/17965695/6361b8aebed6c60ba0555217' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-64dabb0da8de0"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["937973"],"_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":"Appleton North has produced many impressive defensive players recently, and are rostering some studs this fall.

The tape should excite coaches too. As a freshman, Ben showed off good strength and hand use to shed blocks when filling against the run. He was able to keep himself clean while attacking downhill. It looks like he is developing the instincts needed to lock down the middle of the defense too. He moves with the flow of the play and has the speed to be an effective blitzer. I will be watching him closely to see where he plays this fall.

He doesn't have a ton of tape to go off of, but he does show the early signs of having the athleticism needed to play out on an island. He showed off the confidence and athleticism to be able to step up and press his receiver at the line. Ross also proved to be an effective blitzer off the edge, again thanks to that speed. The CB is also a reliable tackler in space. He closes quick, takes good angles, and goes low on bigger targets.

McGee also has teh ball skills to make plays on offense and defense He had 15 catches in 2022, 4 INTs, and 12 PBUs.
