<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>In this edition, we take a look at the secondary unit and who will be names that you need to know for the upcoming season.<br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["872648"],"_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-67a682c6b6f96"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Fiefia is a physical player with great range and is excellent at diagnosing plays quickly. He can play either Safety position or be a cover corner if asked. Fiefia has great bend at the hip and an excellent movement pattern that allows him to play anywhere on the secondary. He is instinctual and uses his speed to undercut a route and make a play on the ball. Fiefia isn't afraid to mix it up and play through the whistle, the physicality sparks the team and he blends that well with his speed. He has spent time on the offensive side of the ball where that physicality comes through in run-blocking plays as he looks to hit a defender and make an impact wherever he is asked to. But he's not just an extension of the run support, he showcases soft hands with good footwork as a receiver, works back to his Quarterback when he's scrambling around, isn't afraid to run across the middle, has strong hands, and would be a playmaker on that side of the ball if he focused solely on being a receiver. <br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["717889"],"_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-67a682c6b6ff5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Harsin has excellent size for the position and shows good footwork and awareness to cover bigger slot receivers. He has good coverage skills to stick to receivers and makes a play on the ball including swiping at the receiver's hands to create turnovers and breaking up passes. Harsin has excellent technique and angles when making tackles and is a player who prevents big plays from happening. He is versatile enough to play both Safety positions, has a keen sense of finding the ball, and displays physicality. Harsin would make for an ideal box safety or hybrid STAR role where he can roam around. He does have good range and can be a deep safety to disrupt plays on the back end. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Ezekial Kasitati","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'1u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"200","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2495","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Granger","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67a682c6b709b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kasitati has an excellent frame and is a versatile player. He has the range and ball skills to be a deep safety, displays physicality in his game, and is not afraid to get dirty and support in the run game to be an opposing box safety. Over time, Kasitati might develop into a hybrid STAR position where he can roam around pre-snap and be a moving chess piece. He is a player who will fight through contact and has quick reactionary skills to stop a big play from developing. Kasitati showcases good lateral speed and movement pattern. He has excellent vision and is athletically gifted with good hands to be a ball hawk. Overall, Kasitati displays excellent traits to develop into a player who will get multiple Power-Four offers and be a playmaker at that level. <br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Samanu Tua'one","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2027","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"5'10u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"190","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2495","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"West","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-67a682c6b7122"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Tua'one is an athletic, springy corner with excellent ball skills and versatility. He can be a boundary corner with his athleticism, closing speed, and ability to disrupt passes that come his way. Tua'one is an excellent, twitchy athlete with good lateral agility to be a slot corner and sticks to opposing receivers tremendously. He's just as effective in giving cushion and keeping everything in front of him as he is being a press corner and undercutting a receiver to make a break on the ball. Tua'one will support in the run game and isn't afraid to get dirty, he'll shed his blocker and go to make a play on the ball carrier. He is an exciting corner, his duality allows him to play in any scheme and he is comfortable adjusting on the fly. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1571372"],"_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-67a682c6b7166"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sudweeks is a versatile Safety who has good bend at the hip which allows him to move well laterally and he is a player with excellent quickness.
