<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rocco Marriott , Platte County</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>6'4" 212</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>The top ranked QB prospect in the 2026 class is a passer first but a dual threat given his big time speed (4.59 forty), athleticism (10-foot broad jump, 35" vertical) and natural running ability. He has great vision, strength and big arm with great touch on the ball. As a junior he had 3,077 yards and 39 touchdowns passing, 629 yards and 19 touchdowns rushing. Rocco already has multiple D1 offers already and will continue to pick up offers. <br></li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='926017' first='Brett' last='Ottensmeyer'], Parkway West</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>6'4" 195</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>A true pocket passer with a quick release and rocket arm when unleashed who puts the ball on the money, with good ball placement, especially with his deep throws. While Brett is not a dual threat, he is athletic enough to keep plays alive with his feet and can pick up good yardage with his legs when needed. As a junior he threw for 2,484 yards and 22 touchdowns. He also has picked up a hand full of D1 offers. <br></li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='213079' first='Brennan' last='Czeschin'], St. Dominic</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>6'3" 190</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>The third QB in the 2026 class who holds early D1 offers is the talented Czeschin, who looked destined to be a college quarterback as an 8th grader when I first saw him, has looked the part as a junior when he threw for 1,349 yards and 11 touchdowns, but those numbers don't tell the full story. Brennan has all the tools looked for with his combination of size, vision, technique and quickness. He makes quick decisions and fires the ball with great velocity to make plays. <br></li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1130311' first='Sam' last='Deen'], Vianney </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>6'1" 170</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>One of the most athletic QBs in the 2026 class is the talented Deen, who has testing bests of a 4.7 forty and 4.0 pro agility, and plays fast. His quick footwork and impressive technique gets the ball where it needs to in a hurry. Sam is on an upward trajectory with his skills and physical development. As a junior he threw for 2,300 yards and 24 touchdowns.<br></li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1127298' first='Hudson' last='Bailey'], St. Pius X </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>6'3" 190</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>Another very mobility signal-caller and good athlete with a very strong arm, who has some of the best accuracy in the class, and great touch and placement on his deep throws where his receiver has the best possible opportunity to make the catch. Bailey showed good leadership in helping his team have one of it;s best season, while personally winning the Fontana award as the best player in Kansas City in the 1-4 classes, while finishing with 2,015 yards and 33 touchdowns passing as a junior. </li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1127268' first='Ayden' last='Wilhelm'], Blue Springs South</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>6'1" 180</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list --> <!-- wp:list --> <ul class="wp-block-list"><!-- wp:list-item --> <li>On of the top dual threat QBs in the 2026 class with his ability to pick apart a defense with his arm and make big plays in the open field in the run game on scrambles or by design. Ayden is a playmaker who has a live arm and quick release and does a good job running the offense and making good decisions. He had 1,500 yards passing, 900 yards rushing and 20 total touchdowns as a junior.</li> <!-- /wp:list-item --></ul> <!-- /wp:list -->
