45 Georgia State Championship Scouting Notes

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Last week, 16 teams met in Mercedez Benz to battle it out for a state championship. There were winners and losers, respectively, but each team had prospects play themselves onto the map and shine on the biggest stage. Here, we evaluate dozens of top performers from championship week and give them their roses. You won't find more expansive coverage anywhere else. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">7A - Walton vs Milton</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:heading {"level":3} --> <h3 class="wp-block-heading">Milton</h3> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Marc Essley","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'9u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2410","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Milton","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"As has been the case several times in his career, Marc Essley was a top playmaker for Milton, helping shoulder them to a state championship win. Essley's smooth route running ability and sub 11 100 time was put on fill display, frequently creating plenty of space and making defenses pay with the ball in his hand. He also made an impact in the return game, setting up decent field position several times.

This time, on the defensive side of the ball. His versatility is what sets him apart. He has the length and speed to get around the edge and rush the passer. He also possesses the sideline to sideline speed to keep plays in front of him and flush ball carriers back inside. Where he really shined for me was his coverage. He understands space and assignment very well when dropped back. He flashed incredible hands and body control by breaking on a route and making a toe tap INT on the sideline. When everything adds together, he is a well-rounded LB prospect who can be a multi-year contributor in college.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"Hayden Tumminia","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"5'11u0022","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"2496","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"Milton","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_2_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"Nobody raised their stock more in this game than Hayden Tumminia. Tumminia, a wrestler, played with outstanding pad level and won with leverage against blockers and ball carriers all night. He also made possibly the best highlight reel play of championship week, flying up the middle on a blitz unblocked and laying a nasty blow on the QB. He was a wrecker on each snap, soaring aggressively to the football and delivering jarring impact upon contact.

He doesn't jump off the page when it comes to measurables, but he is simply a talented pass catcher with excellent body control and focus when the ball is in the air. Early in the game, Teal flashed an area of his game that I haven't seen a whole lot, the ability to highpoint the ball. He rose over defenders and plucked the ball out of the air, then safely securing it as he went to the ground.

He sits down and absorbs contact well in the gaps, but the pursuit he flashed on a sack from a blitz is what drew my eyes to him.

Coming in around 6'3 240 with plus athleticism, he is naturally tough to block and can create some push up front. However, he did much more than that. He absolutely exploded to the football, coming away with several sacks and even a blocked punt. Once free of blockers, he can hit another gear and violently close.

His upside as a receiver is clear. He comes in listed at 6'4 230 and has room to grow. He is speedy and can go up and get it, making him tough to defend. He snuck out of traffic on TE leak plays which resulted in 2 TDs against Woodward Academy. He was wide open, but he maintained his stride while scoring.

He is how a prototype dual threat QB is drawn up in the mind of college coaches. He is big, fast, fights for yards, and makes smart decisions as a runner. When he dropped back to throw, he flashed the arm strength and touch needed to drop the ball over the safeties and reach all levels of the field.

Hancock does a great job of staying in phase with receivers and giving himself a chance to make plays.

He also made some plays on defense, jumping a route and hitting an extra gear to bring in a pick six. Mello Jones could wind up playing any sort of positions, but regardless, he is always around the ball and is an elite athlete with NFL upside when it is all said and done.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_1_player":["335443"],"_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":"When you turn on the tape, [player_tooltip player_id='335443' first='Jerrod' last='Steward'] really turns heads as a big bodied LB, coming in at 6'1 235. However, it was his work on the offensive side of the ball that really impressed me against Prince Avenue. Swainsboro ran a lot of downhill, direct snap run plays with Mello Jones. In some of those formations, Steward lined up as an HB/TE, and just bouldered into people as a blocker. He is big, athletic, and powerful, so he just cleared out running lanes for the ball carrier. As you could expect, they ran behind him a lot.","_player_evaluations_1_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_2_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"Ja'Bios Smith","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"6'3u0022","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"2411","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"Swainsboro","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_2_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_2_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"What an impressive freshman Ja'Bios Smith is. He comes in at around 6'3 200 and looks the part of a prospect who could quickly rise onto the P5 recruiting scene. He is how an EDGE prospect is supposed to look. He checks the length boxes, but he is also super athletic and bendy around the edge. He understands how to work against blockers and keep hands off of him, something that will help him against higher level OL competition. I would keep tabs on Smith, as this is certainly not the last time you'll hear about him.","_player_evaluations_2_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":3,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65834721efbff"} /-->
