Formby does a terrific job blocking in the run game and in pass protection- very few defensive linemen can match up well against his size, strength, and leverage and it shows on tape. Formby is really athletic and does a great job climbing from level to level to make key blocks for his teammates- you can find him opening up wide lanes for the ball carrier all over the field. In addition to his abilities in the run game, Formby does a great job protecting his quarterback. He does a great job setting his feet and doesn't allow defensive linemen to beat him into the backfield. With how well he played last fall, Formby is starting to see recruitment open up. He picked up an offer from Arkansas State earlier this summer and with how well he has played he could definitely see more offers head his way soon. Keep an eye on Formby this season, he's become a big piece of Northridge's offensive line and is set up for a big year!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1349522"],"_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-66cf96ce76eeb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1349522' first='Cayden' last='Dees'] is a really reliable offensive tackle out of Montgomery Catholic that has greatly benefited his team's offense over the past few seasons.

Last fall Dees had a terrific sophomore season where he matched up really well against some top-tier defensive linemen and linebackers.
