<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We're taking a deeper look at some 2028 recruits today and what they bring to the table and their upside down the road.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1866426"],"_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-6920b9246cfae"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Darden is a dynamic receiver who can do a ton of damage with the ball in his hands. He's crafty at the line and can create separation at the top of his routes. He's got some good wiggle and can make guys miss in a phone booth. He's got good ball skills down the field as well and quickly became a reliable target this year. He put up 23 catches for 465 yards and 5 TDs this past season in year 2.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1870181"],"_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-6920b9246d01e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Bailey jumped into action and had success right away. He's good on the outside and has a great first step and eats into cushions given by the DBs in a flash. He'll blow right by the DB if they're flat-footed. He's a deep threat who seems to have a few deep balls every week. He's got good body control and can adjust to the ball in mid-air. His concentration is top-notch, and he'll make some impressive grabs. I liked how he continued to improve each week and felt like there's still a lot of potential in there. He put up 36 grabs for 625 yards and 15 TDs.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2061139"],"_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-6920b9246d076"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Henry is a possession receiver who helps move the chains and convert on 3rd downs. He gives his QB a big target and can go up and make some tough grabs. He's able to fight for extra yardage when he's got the ball and doesn't seem to go down easily. He thrives on the outside when he's able to use his body and box out the defender to make the catch. He got some work in Varsity this year and would expect him to be a full-time starter next year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2061150"],"_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-6920b9246d0c3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hoggs is an inside receiver who understands how to read the field and get open in zone. He does a good job of finding the soft spot and will settle down into those gaps. He's good with the ball in his hands and can make something out of nothing. He's willing to make catches over the middle and doesn't hesitate. He gave Zionsville an outlet at times this year, putting up 25 catches for 319 yards and 4 TDs on the year.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2061153"],"_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-6920b9246d113"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Vanderbush is a rising 2-way player for Plainfield who just put together a good year on both sides of the ball. He has good instincts on both sides and seems to see things as they develop. Whether it helps him get open or come up and make the tackle depends on which side he's on. His 19 grabs for 221 yards and 1 TD on offense, and his 46 tackles, 3 TFLs, and 5 passes deflected rounded out his sophomore year. He's talented, on the field, and has the potential.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
