He has a ton of potential. 15-plus colleges, including Maryland, Georgia, Miami, Ohio State, Ole Miss, and Texas A&amp;M, believe he has a high ceiling as a prospect. Put me in the line with the believers. He is hell coming off of that edge. Smith is only going to get better. [player_tooltip player_id='1091984' first='Zion' last='Elee'] (his teammate now at Maryland) was as beast. He has that same pedigree. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1644118"],"_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-69702d861f57f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Archbishop Spalding's success on the ground this season is due to a very talented offensive line. Smalls is a key cog in that unit and currently holds 10-plus offers.

Miller is a reliable target who catches the ball in stride, finds space versus zone coverage, and has proven big-play ability every time the ball is in his hands. I can see him having a breakout junior-year season with [player_tooltip player_id='1879547' first='Brian' last='Snowden'], who'll be a second-year starter, throwing him the football. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1084511"],"_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-69702d861f6f3"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Chiles established himself as one of the top defensive players in the ultra-competitive WCAC.

Something tells me Cruz is going to make another big step forward as a football player and his stock will go up even more. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1506862"],"_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-69702d861f7e6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I'm going take an educated guess and say that Swann is one most likely to rise during the rankings update.

He actually took an unofficial visit to UCLA this past weekend while he was out there for an event. I've seen him twice this month, both at NXGN events in Miami. I think the off-season will give colleges a better opportunity to see him as a route-runner and get a closer look at his quickness in and out of routes. I think Rogers is technically sound and can probably show more of that in a camp setting. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1455368"],"_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-69702d861f8d9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Elee is the younger brother of [player_tooltip player_id='1091984' first='Zion' last='Elee'] (former St. Frances Panther and current Maryland Terrapin).

He'll most likely end up inside at guard at the next level based on his body composition.
