<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We're heading over to the 2027 class today to highlight a group of receivers who are emerging as reliable options for their schools.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1668063"],"_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-68939db92c74d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Gilbert is a great raw multisport athlete who made an impact all over the field last season. He played both running back and wide receiver and flashed at both spots. He's got good speed and vision with the ball in his hands, and he was just as effective working outside as a downfield target. He finished the year with 352 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns to go along with 39 catches for 502 yards and 8 scores. Whether he was taking handoffs or stretching the field, he found ways to produce. There's real versatility here, and he's only getting started.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["378848"],"_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-68939db92c7b7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">McBroom transferred up to Jeffersonville after spending his freshman year in Kentucky, and he's starting to settle in. He's got a good frame that's beginning to fill out, and you can see the burst and quickness in his steps. He moves well through the second and third levels and doesn't need much space to make something happen. The tools are there, and now it's about seeing what he can do with a full year in the program. Roe-McBroom is definitely one to keep an eye on this fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1763017"],"_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-68939db92c810"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kern has a natural feel to his game that's easy to notice. He moves well, has good body control, and sees the field with clear vision. He finds soft spots in the zone and makes himself available, which shows he understands timing and space. His hands are soft and reliable, and he tracks the ball in cleanly. In year 2, he finished with 23 catches for 290 yards and 2 touchdowns. I think there will be a jump in production in year 3.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1763029"],"_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-68939db92c85b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cummings is a clean route runner whose confidence clearly grew as the season went on. He's sharp getting in and out of breaks, doesn't chop his feet, and doesn't waste steps. He's reliable and won't make many mistakes, which makes him easy to trust on key downs. In year two, he pulled in 26 catches for 351 yards and 4 touchdowns. There's a smoothness to his game that makes everything look under control, and I wouldn't be surprised if he takes another step forward this fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1763022"],"_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-68939db92c8a4"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sobczynski is the type of receiver who can give defenses fits with how sudden he is. He's smaller and has a knack for getting lost in traffic, which makes him tough to track in the short game. His feet are incredibly quick, and he can change direction without losing speed or balance. He's at his best underneath and in quick-hitting routes, where he can turn short catches into solid gains. Hard guy to keep bottled up when he gets into rhythm.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
