He's a quick processor who accurately leads his receivers downfield with great ball placement and touch. I REALLY like his release- he's quick to get the ball out and can put a ton of velocity on tight window throws. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's really hard to tell Rhodes is only a sophomore- he has some sweet plays where he pump fakes, forces DBs to bite, and exploits secondaries for massive gains through the air. With his football IQ and arm talent, he's set up for a huge junior season this fall- just watch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Rhodes had a productive sophomore season, passing for over 2100 yards and 27 TDs.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I really liked what I saw from Rhodes- check out some of what he did last fall:</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/18987376/6738c80a0b69e5ada7ce93f6' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-681d29501c6fc"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1670132"],"_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-681d29501c76a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1670132' first='Jaidyn' last='Johnson'] is a talented OG out of Sparkman who put together a great sophomore season up front last fall. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Johnson is an aggressive LG who consistently opens up huge opportunities on the ground for his teammates. He's a powerful dude who plays through the whistle to consistently drive defenders several yards off the LOS and into the dirt. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It's clear that Johnson is a really athletic dude- he's quick on his feet and can pull to create some huge blocks on the move.

He's quick on his feet, runs great routes, and can attack multiple levels of the field. On top of that, he has a great set of hands and consistently makes impressive catches through coverage and contact. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>It really shows up in the red zone- he's terrific in contested situations and frequently high points the ball over the tops of defenders for some highlight reel grabs.
