<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Today we will be looking at some backs outside of the top 100 that would be great addition to programs still in need of a game changer. These are the backs that were able to turn heads and should be on college programs radar.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1492954"],"_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-67926bb441dee"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Perry is a bigger back that runs with power but does have the speed to take it the distance when he gets into the open field. He has a knack for making the first defender miss and is good at letting his blocks develop. He shows good patience and poise when he has the ball, following his blocks and bursting through the hole to gain chunk yardage. He is a threat to score whenever his team is in the redzone. He can be a gadget player, having the ability to do multiple things like throw the ball on trick plays and be affective when running wildcat. He does have some offers and will be a player that can make an impact on either side of the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1429289"],"_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-67926bb441e6a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Ginter is a taller physical back that is a difficult to bring down in the open field, constantly making defenders miss. When he makes it into the open field he is able to turn on the jets and pull away from defenders. At times he is able to lower his shoulder and run through tacklers to pick up more yards. He has a couple of offers and would be a good addition to those programs interested. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1361372"],"_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-67926bb441ebd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bakken is probably one of the most underrated kids on this list and deserves some attention with the way he balled out this year. He put up some monster stats and with his skill set he is a player that could make a major impact for whoever signs him. He is able to make the first defender miss and has the speed to turn it into a foot race when he gets to the second level, bouncing it to the outside and pick up big chunk yardage. He can also be a threat to catch the ball out of the backfield and be explosive as a receiver as well. This kid needs to be on the radar and just to emphasize again, he would be a steal for whoever signs him!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1560261"],"_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-67926cd099217"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Callas is a back that is elusive and can make things happen in tight spaces, making defenders miss or running through arm tackles. He has the ability to lower his should to pick up extra yards but is shifty in the open field. He can be a threat out of the backfield as well being able to move the sticks when he catches the ball and picking up chunk yards. He is a threat to punch it in whenever his team is in the redzone adding another aspect to his polished game. He would be a great addition to any program in need of a bruising back that knows how to make defenders miss and keep the chains moving.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1492972"],"_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-67926cd09927d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Martinez is a back that is able to affect the game either on the ground or in the receiving game. He is elusive when he gets to the edge and when he makes the first defender miss, he can turn on the jets and leave everyone in the dust. He is shifty in tight spaces, being able to find the hole and put his foot in the ground being a home run threat. As a receiver he is a player you have to account for as he is able to find openings, setting up his blocks and meeting his teammates in the end zone. He is an explosive back that needs to be on the radar and who programs could use as a change of pace or every down back.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1431695"],"_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-67926cd0992db"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McFarland is a back that has a lot of speed and when he gets to the second level is able to pull away from defenders and take it to the house. He is a big play waiting to happen and is explosive when he has the ball in his hands. He has a knack for making the first defender miss and can lower his shoulder to fight for extra yardage. He is uncommitted and looking for a home that he can make an impact at and would be a great addition to any program still looking for a dynamic back.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

Today we will be looking at some backs outside of the top 100 that would be great addition to programs still in need of a game changer. These are the backs that were able to turn heads and should be on college programs radar.
