<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I love being able to do these evaluations. I always know that there are players out there that we need to show a lot of love. There are also some guys out there that are already giving me NFL like comparisons from guys from the past. Let's check it out.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Tristan Burns</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Burn is a shorter guy that reminds me a lot of Bob Sanders. I have mentioned that before, but let's break this thing down. Burns is a guy that you can tell gets busy in the weight room. He is not some scrub out there getting pushed around on the football field. Burns also loves to come up and make big hits. Those are things that we saw that make him remind us of Bob Sanders. This kid is a baller.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='749056' first='Jaeden' last='Hill'] </strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hill is a bruiser that knows how to tote the rock. This kid is a guy that goes out and balls. He is a player that also has some decent speed. I think that this guy reminds me of a [player_tooltip player_id='653014' first='Eddie' last='George'] style running back. He is going to be a taller back that has decent speed. He has some long strides when he breaks loose. Hill is going to have a big season for Tupelo next year. Be sure to keep your eyes on thus guy. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='837820' first='Jayce' last='Taylor']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Taylor is a player that I like a lot. This young man reminds me of Lawrence Taylor. What a coincidence that is. I think that we are going to see him start to receive a lot of division one attention soon. This young man is a baller that stepped up big for his team in the state title game. He was a dog out there holding it down for Biggersville. That game is where I started to see some of the similarities to Lawrence Taylor. Especially when he rushes from the edge. Taylor is a vicious player.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='691285' first='Grant' last='Kitchens']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Kitchens is a big boy that is 6-foot-8, 298 pounds. Nanih Waiya is lucky to have him on their side. This young man goes on the field and makes things happen in the trenches. Running backs love to get behind him. This young man reminds me of Michael Oher. He is a giant on the field that is used to having his way.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1217036' first='Caleb' last='Hearn']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Hearn is a player that I started keeping up with after the Super Sophomore game. This young man reminds me of KJ Wright. He is a long guy that knows how to cover. That was one of the best skills that Wright had during his days in the NFL. I think that we are going to see Hearn be that same kind of player. He also knows how to be a problem on a blitz. Be sure to keep up with him.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

I love being able to do these evaluations. I always know that there are players out there that we need to show a lot of love. There are also some guys out there that are already giving me NFL like comparisons from guys from the past. Let's check it out.
