Burns puts the work in, he has the God-given ability and he has the IQ. Burns last year proved to be a ball hawk, he's got tremendous ball skills and is a willing tackler. He tracks ball carriers down from across field, he's someone who doesn't quit till the whistle is blown. He is an all-around talent to really follow this off-season and this season. He's spectacular!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1308523"],"_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-699258c303931"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1308523' first='Jahlil' last='Page'] is a talent I have covered for some time now, since his middle school days and Page is one of the best talents at wide out in the 2029 class that there is and that's not just the state of Georgia but it's all over the Country. Page is going to have a blow-up season in 2026. He is a playmaker!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1398488"],"_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-699258c3039a1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Another talent I have covered since his middle school days is the excellent [player_tooltip player_id='1398488' first='Athens' last='Davenport'].

Brown has it all, he puts it out there on the gridiron and that's why he's a major force for his team at the linebacker position and you see why he's got the offers that he has. Big year for Brown coming in '26.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["409921"],"_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-699258c303a74"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='409921' first='Derrick' last='Baker'] is another big-time talent and player who is clearly a next level guy too. Someone who has outstanding size already, next level size at that. Baker can throw it, run it and he's got the IQ to make the right things happen along with his ability. He is a player to watch this season as one of the state's best signal callers!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
