<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1295594' first='Brandon' last='Dobos'] JR | LB | 2025 | Stoney Creek | <a href="https://twitter.com/brandondobosjr">Twitter</a> | <a href="http://www.hudl.com/video/3/13201437/65398dba5b3cb00dc0c41f59">Hudl</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Idea Size For The Position at 5-11 200 lbs</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Good Later Movement, Works Through Traffic Well</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Reads Run Plays Quickly </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>My Analysis: </strong>Having a linebacker who can read plays quickly and work through traffic is critical to a team's success. Dobos' ability as a tackler will be key to <strong>Stoney Creek</strong> limiting opponents big plays and allowing less first downs. You can tell that football means something to Dobos by the way he plays fast and delivers big hits. Dobos also plays fullback for this <strong>Stoney Creek</strong> football team and he really excels in that role. He is a very good football player who will certainly be able to limit the effectiveness of opposing offenses next year. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1298803' first='LeVelle' last='Shannon'] | QB | 2025 | Birmingham Groves | <a href="https://twitter.com/LeVelleShannon1">Twitter</a> | <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17936932/6532bc61f55f9c0ac4e696f0">Hudl</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Very Comfortable Rolling Out of The Pocket</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Good Ability to Make Throws on The Run</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Put Touch on His Throws</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Arm Strength to Make Accurate Throws Down Field</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>My Analysis: </strong>Shannon's game is smooth and he plays very confidently. I love how comfortably he rolls out of the pocket and his ability to make throws on the run. Listed at 6-1, 170 lbs I believe that Shannon can continue to add muscle and improve even more as a passer and have another tremendous year for his football team. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='899493' first='Avery' last='Gach'] | OL | 2025 | Birmingham Groves | <a href="https://twitter.com/AveryGach">Twitter</a> | <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16199995/655c19db2ab0e70a00dc7be1">Hudl</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Good Size at 6-5 285 lbs</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Elite Ability to Sustain Blocks</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Very Aggressive Blocker</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Excellent Ability to Pull</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>My Analysis: </strong>Gach is a tremendous football player who has the versatilely in my opinion to play any position on the offensive line at an elite level. Gach has a skill set that projects very well to the college level and his elite ability as a run and pass blocker makes him such a valuable player for this <strong>Groves</strong> team.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Jordan Melton | LB | 2025 | Southfield A&amp;T | <a href="https://twitter.com/JordanMelton__">Twitter </a>| <a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/17671637/656f9a72a0226c0ec40cd9b4">Hudl</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Good at Getting Off Blocks and Making Tackles</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Reads Plays Quickly</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Good Burst to Close on Ball Carriers</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Physical Tackler </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>My Analysis: </strong>Melton has good hands to come down with interceptions. Melton was a key player on this <strong>Southfield A&amp;T</strong> team that won the division-1 state championship. His ability to read plays and make tackles make land him on this list of true difference makers in this conference. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='247693' first='Bryant' last='Weatherspoon'] | DE | 2025 | Harper Woods | <a href="https://twitter.com/BryantWeathers3">Twitter</a> |</strong> <strong><a href="https://www.hudl.com/video/3/16102353/65674142b019fa06840a1aa3">Hudl</a></strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Very Good Size at 6-3, 230 lbs </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Good Ability to Rush The Passer</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Good Tackler</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Good Quickness of The Snap</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>My Analysis: </strong>I love his ability to rush the passer, and you can tell he has a good natural feel for it. He is a good tackler who does a good job of working through traffic. He has good size for the position and has a lean muscular build. I like his competitiveness and the high motor he plays with. You can tell he enjoys playing football and making plays to help his team really means something to him. Weatherspoon also plays tight end on offense and does a great job of run blocking. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
