New Addition Athletes with Something to Prove

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I believe that any one of these New Additions could rise to superstar status this coming season. Generally, these are players who've shown a lot of flashes. I'm excited for all of these athletes, so from GR Christian to Manchester, here are a few New Addition Athletes with something to prove! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1298694"],"_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-668427cdadbc0"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ben is mainly utilized as a return specialist and slot receiver. Returning kicks, Ben has great vision and good top speed. He was able to bring one to the house in an injury-shortened season. <br>At slot, Ben runs some very good-looking out/in/comeback routes. There are also a few instances of solid contested catching. Most notably, Ben has great vision when it comes to returning kicks and as a receiver. Though, I don't think he has the athleticism to execute like he'd want to. I feel like the potential is there, but for now, Ben is an average athlete for his position with some promising traits. If he can show athletic improvement, he'll be a phenomenal MIAA prospect. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1316950"],"_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-668427cdadc73"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I've seen bits and pieces of Bobo throughout this offseason. In passing, he's a high-upside athlete (main position probably DB). His current highlights give me a basic understanding of his skillset. Playing man coverage, Bobo sports a long stride and great explosiveness. His footwork and hips need a lot of work, but I really like the upside here. On top of that, Bobo flashes great run defense and a few hard hits. I also see a few offensive highlights on his Twitter. In that area, I'm looking forward to seeing what Bobo is able to do next season. <br>For now, Bobo is ranked at #417. He could very easily up his ranking with a productive season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1290927"],"_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-668427cdadda9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I remember noticing Miguel a few times last season. When Grandville played Davison, I noticed Miguel as he played with a ton of grit and impressive athleticism against some of the best WRs in Michigan. Against Caledonia, Miguel returned two kicks for touchdowns. Throughout the year, Miguel proved to be one of the best kick returners in Michigan. It's not easy to start at a big school like Grandville, so I fully expect Miguel to take a step-up next season. The unfortunate reality is that Miguel's size negatively impacts his recruitment, but with a great season, I could see Miguel earn college opportunities. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1290582"],"_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-668427cdade14"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Last season, Lee served as a super-productive player for Catholic Central. I really like his highlights, though he's ranked where he is because of his projected college upside. <br>Looking at <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16248033/654c399164df6208d0be7104">Lee's highlight tape</a>, I see that he's a PHYSICAL football player. Running between the tackles, Lee knows how to bounce off a tackle or two and earn a few extra yards. I don't think Lee is super explosive, but if he's able to get to top speed, Lee is an explosive play waiting to happen. Defensively, Lee is a reliable linebacker/DB who is predictably hard-hitting. I fully expect Lee to be a productive player again in 2024, and he should be granted a roster spot at the next level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1290541"],"_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-668427cdadaef"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bubba is a good receiver with great tape. Notably, he has more blocking highlights than the vast majority of receivers. The one big issue is the clogged WR market. At the high school level, he's an extremely impactful player. Bubba can go in motion, block, and be a good possession target when needed. He even has a few instances of solid run-after-catch ability. In order to become a prospect, he needs to find a way to truly stand out. I'm banking on a breakout season from Bubba. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
