<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>The Indiana Stock Up Showcase from this past weekend had a bunch of talent, but the group of TEs who showed up was by far the best group of TEs I've seen yet.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2079133"],"_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-6942f9a31e870"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Nusbaum is a versatile athlete who can move all over the field and be effective. He's got long arms and gets in and out of his breaks well, which is ideal for a guy with his frame. He's able to make tough grabs over the middle and look the ball in. He's got good reflexes that help him in both the passing and running games. He's strong enough to block, but strikes me as a guy you want to use as a weapon because of his versatility.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2061041"],"_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-6942f9a31e8df"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Stallings is a traditional TE who can help out the offense in the running game just as much in the passing game. He's got a good frame with a strong lower body that helps him be an effective lead blocker. He's then a good enough athlete that he can catch the ball in space and make something happen. He'll lower his shoulder and fight for those tough yards when it matters. I like how steady he can be, and his Varsity tape showed all the same traits I saw on Sunday.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2079131"],"_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-6942f9a31e929"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Deising is an explosive athlete for his size and can do a lot of good things for an offense. He's nimble and gets off the line like a receiver. He's got the length to throw him up some red zone targets and give him a chance to go get them. I like his ability to create after the catch as well. He's not just a straight-line TE, he's someone who can make guys miss, find a block, and hit the big play. It's pretty easy to see the potential with him and how some things come easily.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1581268"],"_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-6942f9a31e96c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Manship is quickly developing for Eastern Hancock and not only gave them a reliable target all season, but he also gave the QBs at the camp a safety blanket. His size and length with how physical he is, make it hard for defenders to stay on him. He's a much better athlete than they anticipate, and he catches them flat-footed. He caught 8 TDs this year for Eastern Hancock and caught the most deep balls from the TE position on Sunday. His downfield ability is fun to see,e and then he's got the ability to come up to the line and block.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1790833"],"_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-6942f9a31e9be"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Behrendt is fun to watch. He's got experience lining up on the ball and can block, but just as easily, knows how to get open. He's a menace in zone and always seems to find a massive gap. He'll make some incredible catches with guys draped all over him. He'll lay out for the ball without hesitation and make some highlight-worthy grabs. He also strikes me as someone who understands football the right way. He's smooth, has no issue bending, and glides all over the field.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1863136"],"_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-6942f9a31ea04"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Price can create matchup problems for LBs and DBs down the field. He's a bigger body TE who can run right through poor arm tackles and make them second-guess before trying that again. He's got a quick burst, which allows him to get to the corner. He's got good straight-line speed and can pick up chunks at a time. He can go over the middle through traffic and make some of those tight window catches as well. He's got the frame and size to be an effective lead blocker if asked.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->

The Indiana Stock Up Showcase from this past weekend had a bunch of talent, but the group of TEs who showed up was by far the best group of TEs I've seen yet.
