<p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Question</strong>: Does he justify his ranking as a top 30 prospect? </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1631243' first='Marcus' last='Brandon']'s film is good. He is a good athlete and has excellent traits. The biggest question I have is: Does he justify being ranked as a top 30 prospect? I am excited to see what he will do at the showcase. I can see him excelling all day during the drills. It will be a good opportunity for him to stack up against other running back prospects. </p>

<p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Question:</strong> What does he run in the 40-yard dash? </p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>Wow, [player_tooltip player_id='1664154' first='Dillan' last='Wickham']'s film is excellent. The 1st two plays show it all. He had an 83-yard touchdown run and then a 72-yard touchdown run. He looks like he exploded out of the cannon; that's how fast he is. He has legit track speed that is rare to see on the football field. I am excited to see him run the 40-yard dash because with his speed, he has a chance to run a great time. Thats the biggest question I want answered from him in the showcase. </p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='1692127' first='Sam' last='Ahn'] is no doubt a playmaker with the football in his hands. He is the type of athlete who needs to be put in space and then let him do his thing. He is that outstanding an athlete with the ball in his hands. The question is, how does he do in the one-on-one competitions at the showcase? I expect a big showing from him, and it should be fun to see him work out. </p>

<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>[player_tooltip player_id='2099374' first='Zayden' last='Deshaun Burks'] is an explosive, athletic running back. He has some of the most impressive film you see from a player. He has legit track speed, and once he gets into the open field, he is off to the races. The question I have for him is, could he be the best running back at the show? He has that much potential. </p>
