Justice had an outstanding year on the Panthers' defense, proving himself as one of the top tackling weapons on the roster. What makes Justice so impressive is his speed off the snap as well as his physical edge, proving he can blast past the defense in the pocket, stop the rush and consistently apply pressure on the quarterback.

Johnson picked up valuable minutes at the helm of the Shamrocks' offense, making a difference for his team at multiple moments this past season. What makes Johnson so impactful is his composure under pressure and ability to launch bullets deep into the backfield. Johnson also impresses me under pressure, showing off his ability to maneuver the defense and get the ball into the hands of his receiving core before the defense makes contact.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6555420003fc8"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["871920"],"_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":"Another skilled prospect to watch for is [player_tooltip player_id='871920' first='Austyn' last='Lawless'], a defensive lineman at Somerset High School.
