Analyzing the 2027 Rankings: 4 New Prospects Who Stand Out

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We added more than 150 prospects to our rankings in Ohio last Friday. Continuing on with our multi-part series, we do a deep dive of four new additions to the rankings who have stood out and earned their spot.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1595569"],"_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-6914888d3e83b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Kent Staten is a starting receiver for Bedford High School.  He is a true 'athlete' in every sense of the word: he can play as a defensive back and receiver, and has even aligned at quarterback and thrown occasionally.  Staten has very good ball skills in both offense and defense, snagging interceptions out of the air nicely and undercutting routes.  Staten does an excellent job of breaking on the ball and making acrobatic interceptions.  As a receiver he is very shifty after the catch. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1650458"],"_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-6914888d3e8e7"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Cam Potts is a starting offensive tackle for Monroe High School.  Potts has good first-step quickness, can mirror rushers nicely and keep defenders between his feet in pass pro.  He displays good use-of-hands and uses his length well to spin the barrel, lock out and drive defenders off the ball in the run game. I think Potts probably translates to guard at the college level just given his size and frame, but he will undoubtedly be a must-know player during the college camp season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1343564"],"_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-6914888d3e978"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1343564' first='Brady' last='Bush'] is a starting tight end and defensive end for Solon High School.  Bush is a very good receiver who can quickly catch, tuck, turn and get upfield, but his college fit is likely on defense as an Edge.  Bush is a very good pass rusher who takes great angles to the ball.  He can dip his shoulder and turn the corner easily, be a physical hitter and has a quick first step.  Keep an eye on him during college camp season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1215291"],"_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-6914888d3ea09"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1215291' first='Brady' last='Young'] is a starting quarterback for New Richmond high School.  Young is a classic option quarterback who can run and make plays with his legs.  He is tough and physical around the goal line, scoring touchdowns as a runner.  Young is also a solid passer who can hit receivers in stride especially over the middle of the field.  His athleticism makes him a must-rank prospect. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
