<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Let's take a look at the 2029 rankings and see who can blow their preseason rankings out of the water.<br><br></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1418816"],"_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-6864ac57b5071"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Whelan comes in as the OL3 for the class and the 25th-ranked player overall. There's a case he can climb the rankings as he showcases good footwork, moves well laterally, has a good base, is strong, and is a physical lineman. Whelan has quick hands and has good technique, which allows him to have good positioning over his defender. A potential gem of an offensive lineman in the class. He'll get recruited regionally and has a good upside. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1693939"],"_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-6864ac57b50cf"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gochis comes in as the RB2 of the class and overall the 27th-ranked prospect in the class. He might end up being a defensive back when the dust settles, but as a runner, Gochis shows good vision, patience, and has good speed. Gochis has good hip fluidity and moves well athletically. He possesses good physicality to his game and is someone who is a three-down back. His athletic movement patterns and hip fluidity are the reason why he might settle in as a defensive back. He has good instincts and can be a difference maker on the back end of a defense. Good potential and has every right to be a riser in the class and that versatility makes him a chess piece for a team. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1598612"],"_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-6864ac57b5116"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Anigbo comes in as the DB2 and the 28th overall prospect in the state. He is an athletic mover with good hip fluidity and has the necessary speed to stick to a receiver's hip pocket. He makes a good play on the ball and does a good job of disrupting passes that come his way. He can be a boundary corner or slide in as a slot corner in spread splits. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1693952"],"_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-6864ac57b5157"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Afalava comes in as the ATH3 and the 30th-ranked prospect overall in the state. He is an athletic mover with a great first step, has good closing speed, and is a physical player. Afalava has good lateral quickness, shows good contact balance as a runner, and plays angry. From a running back to linebacker and a strong safety, he is a playmaker and someone who will find a way on the field. He likely will end up being a safety or running back when the dust settles. Great upside and has every right to be a riser in the overall rankings and end up in the top 15.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1514977"],"_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-6864ac57b5198"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bueno comes in as the DB3 and the 31st-ranked prospect in the state. He has good length and physicality to his game. He moves well, has good hips that allow him to stick to his receiver, and has good anticipation in his game. He projects as a boundary corner and a physical cover corner. He has every right to be a riser in the overall rankings and climb into the top 20. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>That was our first look at potential risers for the 2029 class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
