<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Today we will be taking a look at some new receivers to the rankings that will be looking to be stock-risers this offseason.

He is a mismatch problem being 6'6 and knows how to high point the football and hauling in the 50/50 catches. He shows strong hands with a wide catch radius and has a knack for being a tough receiver to bring down, making the first defender miss at times. With his size and strength he will be a stock watch player to watch on the 7on7 circuit this summer and will have a chance to turn some heads in the process.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1430393"],"_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-67b382d0bec79"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Benallo is a receiver that is able to make an impact in various aspects of the game. He can be a gadget player, taking end arounds and being a scoring threat out of the backfield. He is a precise route runner that is able to create separation and shows soft hands being able to haul in tough catches to keep the sticks moving. He is also a returner as well that can flip the field with his speed. He will be a player that will look to turn some heads and top 1,000 yards receiving this upcoming season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1507753"],"_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-67b382d0becc1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">West is a speedy receiver that is able to impact the game in the return game as well. He can flip the field and set his team up in good position. As a receiver he shows soft hands being able to haul in catches in tight windows. He is also able to create separation with his routes, getting in and out of breaks quickly. He is a threat to score whenever he has the ball in his hands and is good at getting the YAC yards. He will be a player that will be looking to pop onto some radars this upcoming season and will be a name to know.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1362807"],"_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-67b382d0bed02"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Balistreri is a receiver that is able to push the defense vertically getting explosive plays when he is able to make it behind defenders. He is able to use that threat to beat defenders being able to break off routes and haul in catches in tight windows. He is a receiver that is able to make his matchup miss in open space and pick up extra yardage. With the way his team is able to run the football he is able to have favorable one on one matchups and is difficult to contain constantly winning those matchups. Look for him to be a top target for his team and a stock riser name to know.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1471226"],"_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-67b382d0bed42"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Moreno shows that ability to be an explosive receiver, showing a quick burst of speed and being shifty in the open field hurdling defenders on film. He is fast off of the line of scrimmage and is able to get on defenders toes quickly, giving himself a two-way go and creating separation. Moreno is good at going up and high pointing the ball, climbing the ladder and plucking the ball out of the air. With his skill set and speed he will be a player that can make a jump next season and will be a name to know in 5A.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1554314"],"_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-67b382d0bed80"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cusack is a receiver that shows great hands being able to constantly make catches in traffic and keeping the chains moving. He shows the ability to get on top of corners quickly being able to break their cushion and alignment. He is difficult to bring down at times making the first defender miss and using his strength to fight off other defenders to pick up more yardage. He will be a go to receiver for his team and will have a chance to be a standout player to know this offseason into the year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
