He has an alright size that is great for high school, but would be on the smaller end once brought into the college ranks. he displays great coordination with his arms and legs, as he extends into offensive linemen and forbidding them a chance to get into his frame and control his body. He also does very well at jumping up and getting his long arms into passing lanes and disrupting opposing pass games. Mitchell is an all-around athlete that can do great things on the field, but has been seen letting off of the gas before making contact on occasion. Overall Nate should be a cornerstone in that Pittsburg defense and plans to do great things in his senior season.","_player_evaluations_4_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_5_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_5_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_5_player_details_player_name":"Tanner Ramage","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_5_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_5_player_details_height":"5'10u0022","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_5_player_details_weight":"175","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_5_player_details_position":"2408","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_5_player_details_school":"Pittsburg","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_5_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_5_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_5_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_5_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"u003cdiv class=u0022flex-shrink-0 flex flex-col relative items-endu0022u003ernu003cdivu003ernu003cdiv class=u0022pt-0.5u0022u003ernu003cdiv class=u0022gizmo-shadow-stroke flex h-6 w-6 items-center justify-center overflow-hidden rounded-fullu0022u003eu003c/divu003ernu003c/divu003ernu003c/divu003ernu003c/divu003ernu003cdiv class=u0022relative flex w-full flex-col agent-turnu0022u003ernu003cdiv class=u0022flex-col gap-1 md:gap-3u0022u003ernu003cdiv class=u0022flex flex-grow flex-col max-w-fullu0022u003ernu003cdiv class=u0022min-h-[20px] text-message flex flex-col items-start gap-3 whitespace-pre-wrap break-words [.text-message+u0026amp;]:mt-5 overflow-x-autou0022 data-message-author-role=u0022assistantu0022 data-message-id=u00226aeae30f-7188-4bcf-bd2a-b8a3709ed7b2u0022u003ernu003cdiv class=u0022markdown prose w-full break-words dark:prose-invert darku0022u003ernrnTanner Ramage presents an intriguing prospect as a running back with notable strengths and areas for improvement. With adept hands out of the backfield, he adds a valuable dimension to the passing game, making him a dual-threat option. While his speed is decent, his smaller stature may limit his ability to break away from defenders. Additionally, his versatility is showcased by his ability to play defense, although his tackling skills are currently underdeveloped and require refinement. Ramage's potential lies in his versatility and receiving ability, but he will need to work on his tackling technique to become a more complete player on both sides of the ball.rnrnu003c/divu003ernu003c/divu003ernu003c/divu003ernu003c/divu003ernu003c/divu003e","_player_evaluations_5_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":6,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-65fe3e0b16bf2"} /-->
