I had a chance to interview Jesiah before he moved over to his current school Corvian and I will share that here as a part of his evaluation. Jesiah shows some explosive movement off of the football and has an impressive reach that allows him to still affect the quarterback if he doesn't get all the way home for a quarterback sack. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/pepman704/status/1815573564076052667","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/pepman704/status/1815573564076052667 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1332097"],"_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-66c75bfe58e11"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I have written about Connor before, and I thought it was definitely the right thing to get him on board in our latest rankings update here. When you look at Connor's film, he's definitely an interior run-stopping defensive tackle first and foremost. Connor shows the ability to split double teams and get immediate penetration in the backfield. As he continues to grow and get stronger, I would love to see that run stopping ability translate into pushing the pocket in the passing game and affecting the quarterback. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1150991"],"_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-66c75bfe58e62"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Moreno has grown to 6'5 now per his Twitter profile, and Charlotte gave him his first offer back in January. I would say that's a futures bet, but it's smart in my opinion. Moreno doesn't have a ton of film out there at the moment, but 6'5 EDGE prospects certainly don't grow on trees, especially in the 49ers' backyard. I will keep an eye out to see how Moreno progresses his sophomore year and possibly becomes a contributor for one of the best programs in the state contending for a state championship this season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1078495"],"_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-66c75bfe58eb8"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Amari has grown to 6'0 and 245 pounds per his Twitter profile, which is exciting stuff. The Stuart Cramer program has a number of talented younger prospects, and Amari is definitely one of them. When you take a look at the film, one of Amari's strengths is stopping the run - he does a good job of taking on multiple blockers and still finding a way to get in on the tackle in the interior run game. I also like his overall hustle - there are a number of plays where the runner has reached the 2nd level of the defense and Amari defeats his block and gets in on the tackle. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
