Twitter Film Spotlight #1

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The other day I put out a tweet letting all athletes in the state of Michigan know I am doing a film review series one more time before the season starts in just 3 weeks, and I received a ton of responses. So behold part 1 of this series reviewing film of various prospects of various ages and teams! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- 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":"Chase Graham ","_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":"6'6u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"250","_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":"Bellevue","_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-66b5707fdc382"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Starting off we have a prospect that is brand new to me. A 2 way player playing at TE and DE, I really like his versatility. I think he thrives more defensively, but at the TE position he does a great job of using his big frame to be a dominant blocker and box out defenders for jump balls. I will definitely be paying attention to what he does this season, as his size and natural ability is very intriguing to me! </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1248327"],"_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-66b5707fdc3e4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Matteo is a kid who really impresses me as he too is a productive 2 way player. At the RB position, he is a downhill runner who can make a cut and get up field in a hurry. He has a quick burst from the backfield that allows him to blow by the first level by the time they're out of their stance. His film shows some great contact balance, as he bounces off defenders and continues for extra yardage. Defensively, Matteo does a great job of coming off the edge in control, but aggressive. His pursuit is good and he has the discipline to not get too far up field, and lets some plays like screens and counters come back to him. Matteo will be a key part of this Adams team again in 2024. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["601974"],"_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-66b5707fdc429"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Alex is one of the hardest workers in the entire state. This kid has transformed his body this off-season, and the offers have followed. I still think he is under recruited, but this fall will be a big season for his stock. He possesses quick feet, patience and a burst you don't typically see from a high school back. I mentioned him transforming his body, Guadagni is jacked! He has all of the tools both physically and mentally to be an impact player at the next level. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["265646"],"_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-66b5707fdc465"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">You know we are big fans of Drew on this site, as he has been one of the all time stock risers in PRZMI history. He has turned himself into a legitimate D1 player, and the offers have started to roll in. He has great technique, often playing the hands and not getting off balance. He has fantastic closing speed and elite change of direction. Keep an eye out as to where Drew ends up committing, because they are getting an absolute dog both on the field, and in the locker room as a leader. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">As</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["818017"],"_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-66b5707fdc4a3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Austin has put in a lot of work in the off-season, getting to a ton of camps and getting coached up. His film displays a good motor, a quick fire off and a very sure tackler. He has long arms and is able to keep linemen out of his chest, giving him a strong chance to shed the blocks completely. Austin has earned a big ranking recently, and I wouldn't be shocked to see it continue to raise over the coming months. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
