Baer often plays the 3-technique spot and is stunting inside or coming off twists. He does a nice job getting skinny through double teams and is constantly in the back field.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Quartz Hill didn't play the best schedule last season but he is the most dominant player in many of the games he plays in. He has offers from Colorado State, Cal and Northern Arizona.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Andrew Dixon","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2025","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'2u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"235","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2406","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"King/Riverside","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-666cf23e0e330"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Dixon had 16 sacks and 24 hurries for King last season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>He is a defensive end but can also slide in once in awhile. Teams usually leave the backside defensive end unblocked on zone plays or boot plays. He makes teams pay for the mistake and often stuffs zone plays away from him with his speed.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Dixon doesn't have offers yet but is at the Utah Tech camp this weekend.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/AndrewDixon2025/status/1800954734683226551","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/AndrewDixon2025/status/1800954734683226551 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["282774"],"_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":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-666cf23e0e37b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Wyatt is one of the best edge rushers I've seen at the high school level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>His speed and agility off the edge are elite and when you combine that with his aggressiveness, he's a nightmare for opposing tackles. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Wyatt had 14 sacks in 12 games last season for the best team in the state.

He had 14 sacks in 13 games for St. John Bosco and was arguably Bosco's best defensive player in the championship game.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>His hand speed is top notch and it's very hard for offensive linemen to get their hands on him. He has good lateral quickness and can get into the backfield quickly even when twisting two gaps over. That ability to twist so far and so fast destroys zone pass protections.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/DUiagalelei/status/1798588855287009729","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/DUiagalelei/status/1798588855287009729 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>NEXT FIVE</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Isaiah Casillas, Murrieta Mesa</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Iese Magalei, Orange Vista</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Emre Law, La Serna</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='406674' first='Lavar' last='Arrington'], Charter Oak</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Owen Chiou, University</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
