After dominating at the JV level, he's now earning varsity reps and making them count. Paul has shown the ability to set the edge, disrupt the backfield and even come up with an interception, a testament to his awareness and versatility. His blend of size, quickness and play recognition makes him an asset against both the run and the pass. As Broomfield pushes deeper into the playoffs, Paul's confidence continues to grow each week. His emerging role and high motor suggest he's just scratching the surface, making him a name that scouts should keep an eye on moving forward.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1657163"],"_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-6913a959cee33"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Smith has the physical presence and motor that every defensive front needs. With 32 total tackles on the season, he's proven to be a dependable contributor capable of holding his ground against strong offensive lines. Smith's ability to collapse pockets and to put pressure on quarterbacks gives his defense flexibility on key downs when they need a stop. He's also shown growth in his awareness against the run, consistently filling gaps and disrupting plays before they develop. As a rotational player, Smith has taken advantage of every opportunity, showing flashes of dominance that project well for his future. With continued development, he has the potential to evolve into a true game wrecker at the next level.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1632904"],"_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-6913a959cee9c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Camping is one of those rare tight ends who brings value in every phase of the game. He's reliable as both a blocker and receiver, finishing the regular season with 40 receptions for 391 yards and two touchdowns. His route running and sure hands make him a dependable target in the passing game, while his size and strength allow him to seal the edge in the run game. Camping's versatility makes him an ideal fit in modern offenses that value hybrid tight ends. As he continues to refine his technique, college scouts will undoubtedly take notice. Expect Camping to be a name that rises quickly on recruiting boards heading into offseason.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1608637"],"_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-6913a959cef01"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">A physically imposing tight end with legitimate Power Four potential, Deater has been a key player on the line to keep this team's offense stay balanced. Known for his blocking ability, Deater consistently opens running lanes and creates opportunities for his backs to break free. His strength and technique make him a force on the edge, while his versatility allows coaches to move him around the formation. As his team makes a deep playoff push, Deater's role will be crucial in setting the tone up front. His combination of size, toughness and football IQ gives him the tools to develop into a high level collegiate prospect and a player to watch closely moving forward.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2045204"],"_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-6913a959cef65"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Although Grand Junction Central's season didn't end in a playoff berth, Rosales was a clear bright spot. The young signal caller showed leadership and poise, completing 63% of his passes for 1,765 yards and 16 touchdowns while adding 746 rushing yards and four scores on the ground. Rosales brings a dual-threat skill set that makes him difficult to game plan against, using both his arm and legs to extend plays. His ability to read defenses and create on the move stands out for a player his age. As he continues to develop his accuracy and decision making, Rosales projects as one of the top young quarterbacks to watch in Colorado heading into next season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
