<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Last week, plenty of talent was on display, high-scoring games were played, and more. Our weekly scouting reports will continue to include detailed analyses of key players to monitor for the week in question, potential risers, or promising prospects who may not have garnered significant attention thus far and should watch as the season grows. Here are seven prospects to watch:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1453925"],"_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-66e85c60f123c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1453925' first='Asher' last='Ruple'] has been solid throughout the first three games of the season. Ruple displays good initial quickness off the snap into his base or zone blocking. Good footwork, solid pad level, hand placement, and leg drive to displace defenders and create running lanes. He has the athletic ability and angles to combo off the DL, reach the second-level linebacker, and wall him off. Ruple is someone to watch as the season grows. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Note - 3.9 GPA</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/ruple_asher73/status/1832773183688081553","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/ruple_asher73/status/1832773183688081553 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1453930"],"_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-66e85c60f129d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1453930' first='Hayden' last='Williford'] is a strong-arm quarterback with good athletic ability.

Solid throw on the run due to his vision to keep his eyes downfield and solid foot speed to escape the pocket. Solid processing of coverages and blitzes pre-snap and post-snap results in good decision-making within the pocket with very good poise, utilizing very good pocket presence to avoid pressure.
