<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Over the last several years since we have been around in the Dakotas since 2021, we have seen the huge plethora of talent come out of the Fargo Area. Rightfully so, Fargo and the metro area is the largest city and metro area in North Dakota and has been the most dominant with their skill position players. This list of talent in our 2029 class is no different, as there are over 30 prospects on our rankings or waitist out of the over 75 total and don't be surprised if that number continues to grow here shortly!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1655671"],"_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-689a1b941fd83"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Rayshaun still has some size and frame that still needs to grow out, but you can't miss how twitch of a route-runner this young man is out of Fargo South. He seems to get constant seperation especially on intermediate and shorter routes for the most part is where he seems to get the post with his growing agility. One of the best areas I believe Rayshaun shows off is his pass-catching ability around the edges with some high traffic areas, as he seems to have persistent hands regardless of where the ball angle comes in from the QB. Surely a 2029 to watch for the Bruins in the coming years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1656640"],"_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-689a1b941fdf3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Nicholas might not be the biggest quarterback out there at the moment, but the balanced arm strength he can generate at that size is intriguing in my eyes. He shows off efficency with his reads by showing off the speed of his progressions from the first to the second read which shows off persitently with the arm talent he has on muliple levels of the football field as a southpaw quarterback that will go to Fargo Shanley this fall. I could tell by his 7v7 tape that was out there, that Nicholas wins with his percision throws which is gained from developing sound chemistry with his receiving core which he looks to have and continue to build for the Deacons upcoming.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1655672"],"_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-689a459536dc2"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">It doesn't take long to see that there is a presence with Jaxon's wingspan when you get your first look at his tape from over the summer. Linebackers that win in pass coverage in the first few yards are a dime in a dozen as that looks like the ideal position fit for Jaxon who will be heading to Fargo South this fall. Some of these reps too make getting in front of the ball almost look effortless, which is why I thought Jaxon couild be a riser by next update in this 2029 class already. The 5'10 185 pounder plays way bigger than his measurables show off which makes me think there is more room to grow for this kid size wise.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1656356"],"_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-689a459536e1a"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">The highest ranked prospect out of Fargo is quarterback [player_tooltip player_id='1656356' first='Davian' last='Lewis'] of Fargo South. Davian showed off all summer that his arm is the deepest in the state and his pinpoint ball fits are quite clean for his age on all three levels from these eyes. He's giot a quick release that resembles the balance I want to see coming from a young gunslinger as mechanically I feel Davian is ahead of the curve in that skillset as well. He comes in as the top rated quarterback in the state of North Dakota in this 2029 class. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"style":{"typography":{"fontSize":"24px"}}} --> <p style="font-size:24px"><strong>More Fargo Names to Know on our Watch List</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>All in all Fargo has 26 names on our watchlist in the 2029 class.
