Five More Minot Area 2026s Waiting on Their First Offer Part 2

Anders is a Minot Area prospect in their offensive trenches, that is under the radar in my eyes. We saw for a live eval at the Valley City State prospect camp this summer as he was a OL prospect I wish I could have watched more of his reps. What he did show off on a handful of reps I watched is how immovable he can be out of his spot, which shows off the strength he has with his base. I recall he also had good pad-level and well-engaged hands as one I hope takes that next step in his senior season as he gets some senior tape for more college coaches.     Caden might not be the biggest offensive line prospect you will ever see, but there is some intriguing skillsets that he brings to the table. He's one that I felt has a more fiery foot speed than you would expect at his size and is one that surely knows how to finish well on his blocks as a run-blocker. He's one that can play almost any spot on the offenisve line, even though my eyes point to the center position as Caden's best fit at the next-level. He also surely showed off more confidence in getting to the second level for his size. Don't be surprised if Caden is another offenisve linemen out of the Minot Area that takes another big step forward in his senior season for th Magi.     Even though the tape is pretty light from his junior season, Julian is another product from Minot Bishop Ryan that could have a strong leap into his senior season. The 6'0 260 pounder intrigues me with his balance he has with his footwork as I am impressed with the power he can generate and quickly. He shows off great pad-level on every rep I caught from his junior season which is why I think ahead of his senior season he could be one that makes a big leap. He also has the consitent forceful hands that can get defensive linemen on their rear end real quick and I would love to see more of that nasty punch into his senior season.     An All-West region selection in 2024 was Minot North wide receiver [player_tooltip player_id='1590705' first='Josia' last='Jaquinet'] in the 2026 classs as one that was a newcomer to this class in January. The 6'1 190 pounder shows off as a springy route-runner than you can tell, excels the most when he gets into the open field. Another area of skillsets that Josia does really well is as a run-blocker as the leverage, penetration, and you can tell he's one that has a high football IQ for blocking based on watching his hand placement. He's one I hope can generate a strong first three weeks of tape as one that looks to me like a good fit in the NSIC that does the little things you want in your receiving core.     This part 2 list is stacked with talent from Minot North for good reason, as they have a lot of recruitable athletes that are under the radar as another one that made some noise this summer for me at camps was linebacker [player_tooltip player_id='1568603' first='Evan' last='Berg']. I like the vison and speed that Evan progresses wtih getting downhill to the ball as one that it's evident that he plays with a deeper game speed versus what his testing numbers might show. He also brings the position flexibility as one of the better fullbacks this state has to offer in this 2026 class, as obviously one that is a quite dependable blocker but actually impressed me with his hands as a pass-catcher as well that has good vision to move the sticks for your team at the next-level.
