He is very athletic for the inside backer position with fluid hips/movement abilities and is a true in the box banger that can take on bigger backs/blockers and plays with good violence and a downhill style of play.rnrnHe checks into our current rankings as one of the top linebackers in the state, and could see his ranking rise as we move toward updating in the coming weeks. Although not currently holding any offers, he should start to see his stock rise through his final prep season.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-664e8dd75e4bd"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["484676"],"_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":"Smith has been one of the top edge defenders across the state since his freshman year and has no shortage of varsity playing experience heading into his final prep season. He is a very explosive and quick twitch player off the edge that is a relentless pass rusher and has a variety of moves at his disposal using both his speed and power very well.rnrnHe's very active in the run game with a violent strike and quick block recognition and should be able to find a home at the next level at the D3+ level at the defensive end spot. Although a bit undersized, he does a tremendous job at using his leverage and lower body power to win at the POA and is a college caliber kid that should be one of the states best in 2024.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-664fa6a8747f5"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1089102"],"_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":"Siegner checks into our rankings as a true plug inside linebacker with plus length and is a top-five player and his position in the latest update. He has a very strong build and his athletic for his size with fluid movement abilities laterally while also playing with a downhill style and does a nice job in knifing into the backfield and is also able to rush the passer from various angles while flashing closing speed and covers a ton of ground in a hurry. He is part of this loaded 2025 linebacker core group in Idaho that are next level guys, and he is one to watch as we get into the Summer and Fall. He should draw interest from the D3+ level and be a next level kid as well, offering some nice position versatility as either an edge/DPR guy or inside linebacker.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-664fa6a8748be"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["740808"],"_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":"Sachse is another name to note as we get into the Summer, and is coming off a state championship winning season for this loaded Bishop Kelly squad. He is a very active and athletic linebacker that flows well to the ball and has quick processing in the box while also able to flip his hips and cover downfield with ease against backs and tight ends.rnrnSachse quickly can weave through blockers while a sure tackler in space and takes good angles to ball carriers outside the tackles and explodes through contact at the POA. He is another well put together kid that plays physical for his size and will make a positive impact on a college roster.
