His release is smooth and some of his film is from a drone or endzone cam and you can see he makes the right reads a lot of the time.rnrnAbdul-Aziz could improve his accuracy a bit and sometimes he takes unnecessary risks with the ball. He hasn't gotten his first offer yet but his frame and footwork make him an appealing prospect.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65d86db1482b3"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/KhalilAbdulAz1z/status/1735372749726683465?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/KhalilAbdulAz1z/status/1735372749726683465?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1000890"],"_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":"Fahey split time at quarterback for Mission Viejo this season and steadily improved throughout the season.rnrnThe ball jumps out of his hands and he knows when to fire the ball in there and when to put some touch on it. He's a better athlete than he gets credit for and makes defenses have to respect his ability to scramble for big yardage.rnrnFahey led Mission Viejo to a State Championship and since then he has picked up four offers from Arkansas, San Diego State, SMU and Cal.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65d86db148322"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/LukeFahey03/status/1736296497736785942?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/LukeFahey03/status/1736296497736785942?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["401286"],"_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":"Roth had a nice sophomore season for La Costa Canyon with over 2,200 yards and 19 touchdowns.rnrnHe is extremely effective as an off-platform thrower and his upper body mechanics are the same on pocket passes and when rolling out. His pocket awareness is good and he keeps his eyes on the secondary when facing pressure.rnrnThe weight room will be his friend this offseason and he needs to fill out a bit, but he has the tools to be a Division 1 college quarterback.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65d86db148377"} /--> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/quinnroth18/status/1748823209930330511?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/quinnroth18/status/1748823209930330511?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1000959"],"_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":"Beaver had a breakout year for Vista Murrieta with 232 yards per game, 26 touchdowns and just seven interceptions.rnrnHe isn't a dual threat guy, but he likes to leave the pocket to buy time for plays to develop.
