Frei is dangerous with the ball in his hands, shows a nice initial burst, open field speed and can find the windows in tight spaces with cutback abilities as well. He is a no brainer next level college kid, that should start drawing interest through the off-season, and should turn heads on the camp circuit this off-season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["938999"],"_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-66fd7770c8b89"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Osterman enters into our rankings update this time around checking in at the number two spot behind Frei and is a long and rangy backer with good closing speed, range in space and brings a nice thump at the POA. He shows he can sniff out plays quickly, redirects to the ball effectively and is a sure tackler in the open field, especially for his age. The Kimberly product has the frame to be able to pack on more weight over the next few years, and projects as a true outside linebacker at the next level with plus cover abilities as well and is one of the states top linebackers regardless of class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1200166"],"_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-66fd7770c8bcb"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Vidlak checks into our rankings as the number three overall prospect in the 2027 class, and snags the top quarterback position. He is a strong armed pocket passer that can tuck it and run when needed, while showing some open field speed and good pocket presence under pressure. He has a strong arm downfield, can fit the ball into tight windows over the top and is seemingly comfortable throwing both in-breaking and outbreaking routes, leading his receivers open with good zip on the ball. He is another no brainer college caliber prospect that should draw next level interest this off-season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1506676"],"_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-66fd7770c8c06"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mitchell checks into our rankings as the number four overall player in this 2027 class, and the number two linebacker across Idaho. Mitchell projects as a true mike backer at the next level due to his size and fluidity, and is a true downhill thumper that excels in the box but can make plays outside the tackles, track down ball carriers backside with closing speed and is a sure tackler in open space. He also shows he can apply pressure from various angles of the defense with pass rush abilities and natural bend around the edge while a high motor kid that is always around the ball. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["938881"],"_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-66fd7770c8c40"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bult checks into our rankings as the number one tight end in this class, and is is a very long and rangy target downfield with a huge catch radius in traffic and shows some wiggle for his size. Bult also shows he can create seperation and does a nice job at using his frame to box out smaller defenders and flashes highpoint abilities while able to run both in-breaking and outbreaking routes with strong hands at the POA. Currently, he is mostly used in the slot and flexed out, but has the size and frame to be used inline as well and block while still keeping that athleticism and route running ability. Bult is a no brainer next level guy that should have a big time off-season this Winter and Spring. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
