Donovan has three scholarships already and I am excited to see who else offers the talented defensive lineman this spring. Donovan's great mix of size, power, and instincts shows right away disrupting interior runs as Marquette's nose guard. Donovan's strength and next level athleticism allows him to beat pass blockers with both speed and power. Good quickness, strong hands, and a smooth change of direction highlights Donovan's potential to be a quality interior pass rusher at the next level.","_player_evaluations_3_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_4_player":[278903],"_player_evaluations_4_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_4_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_4_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='1118576' first='Dayne' last='Schellenger'] has some of the best potential out of any OL in St. Louis.

Dayne's rare combination of length, power, and quickness shows right away knocking out linebackers with one punch in the open field. Good sustain ability shows latching on and driving defenders from the point of attack that are aligned outside of his vicinity. Good balance and quick feet allow Dayne to easily redirect and cutoff linebackers at the second level.
