He does a great job setting up his routes and manipulating DB's to then utilize that top end speed to burn past them. Soft, reliable hands with good body control to not skip a stride while tracking the ball downfield. I like his ability to attack various coverages shells with a different approach- which translates to that manipulation and route integrity. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["992826"],"_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-68312a721ccd5"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Thomas is a 1,000 yard receiver with excellent top end speed that is a legit burner. Clean route runner that frequently flashed twitch and active feet at the LOS when facing man-press, and does an excellent job of securing the catch despite traffic or anticipating contact. Thomas does a great job adjusting his body and tracking the ball to find it at awkward angles and has that competitiveness to go up and win those contested catches despite only being 5'9"- showing a solid leaping ability. </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":"[player_tooltip player_id='1682333' first='Dillon' last='Aspiras']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2026","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"6'0u0022","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"158","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_weight":"field_65b288425ecf6","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2410","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Cactus Shadows ","_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-68312a721cdc1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Aspiras is a kid that I think is prone for a huge senior season in a very explosive Cactus Shadows offense. He holds versatility to line up as the #2 or #3 in a trips set, or split out solo at X and be a mismatch against man coverage given his burst and quick change of direction. He shows loose hips and does a great job sinking those hips to transition in and out of routes or to set up DB's. He was also a vertical threat last year with good top end speed to get over the top of DB's. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1603188"],"_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-68312a721ce37"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Another Cactus Shadows kid making the list here, as Dafnis put together some very impressive film from a season ago. Versatile player with the ability to line up at TE, in the slot, wing, or isolated at X/Z and really be a mismatch from anywhere. Too fast and athletic vs LB's and too physical vs CB's. He shows a large catch radius with good body control and will make those across the middle intermediate grabs and secures the catch well. Violent hands to flash a shock release or swipe DB's hands away, and holds the speed for big play ability once he hits it into second gear. A very impressive all around player that needs to be on your boards ASAP. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["992785"],"_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-68312a721cea4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Haygood is a speedy kid that flashed glimpsed of his big play ability last fall, and I think he's a big sleeper to take that next step for his upcoming senior season. Very good after the catch to frequently break initial contact and possesses good change of direction and shiftiness in space to make opponents miss. He does a good job getting his head around on those quick outs and immediately burst upfield after the catch. I expect his role to grow drastically here this fall and he should be a kid to keep an eye on. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
