Prep Redzone New England Camp: Quarterback Notebook, Part I

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>As customary with my event coverage, I feverishly write as many notes as I can, as quickly as I can, in order to report on as many prospects as I can. In this feature from Prep Redzone New England's Stock Up Showcase, I share my positional notes for the group aforementioned in this article's title. More coverage on different groups will be forthcoming in the days to follow, so be sure to check back later!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Quarterback Notebook</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Coming off of his hand, the ball that [player_tooltip player_id='1575642' first='Benjamin' last='Thomas'] threw was a pretty one to watch. What added to its majesty was his 3/4 release point. Combine this with a rhythmic approach to his drops, release, and throw, it makes for the looks of someone who has been quarterbacking for a long time. Perhaps to his size, it seemed as though Thomas loaded up a bit when he when throwing deep. Improving his release will also get a bit more juice on the ball... At every camp there is always at least that one quarterback who is a lefty. More times than not there is something to my naked eye that just looks "funny" about how they go about their business. However, much to my delight, this was not the case for [player_tooltip player_id='2077246' first='Declan' last='Roscoe']. He did not appear to have that awkward, inverted look that I feel lefty quarterbacks often do.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>There was something about the way [player_tooltip player_id='2098705' first='Brayden' last='Jones'] threw the ball that I thought was different. I was initially perplexed since the ends justified the means, as Jones threw darts all over the field. I after a second and third look, it seemed as though Jones, a 2027 graduate, had a very low release point - nearly side arm - when he dropped back to sling it... One of the most impressive throws I got a chance to see came off of the arm of [player_tooltip player_id='1634366' first='Anthony' last='Abarno']. Abarno, a rising senior, executed a play action fake where he simulated the mesh that was stuck in the running backs cut. Abarno followed that up with an absolute great ball that he rifled over the middle for an uncontested catch.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>[player_tooltip player_id='1302888' first='Jake' last='OKeefe'] was the recipient of some poor luck. I thought OKeefe threw a very catchable ball all evening long - a ball with some power behind it, too. Unfortunately some of his passes were a bit too hot to handle, as a receiver dropped one he should have easily caught. His timing with his receivers, which I often chalk up to running with receivers he has never worked with before. I do, however, think he can get the ball out a bit quicker... The baby of the group for today's coverage was [player_tooltip player_id='2067959' first='Bradyn' last='Hogan']. Hogan, who has yet to complete his freshman year of high school, is just a notch under 6'4" and a buffet away from being 200lbs. One area for him to focus on is leading his receiver to set up easy yards after catch, allowing his skill positions to create for themselves. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading">Prep Redzone New England Stock Up Showcase Event Coverage</h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/burning-questions-prep-rezone-new-england-stock-up-showcase-qbs">Burning Questions: Quarterbacks</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/burning-questions-prep-rezone-new-england-stock-up-showcase-dl">Burning Questions: Defensive Linemen</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/burning-questions-prep-rezone-new-england-stock-up-showcase-rbs">Burning Questions: Running Backs</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/burning-questions-prep-rezone-new-england-stock-up-showcase-wr-te">Burning Questions: Wide Receivers/Tight Ends</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/burning-questions-prep-rezone-new-england-stock-up-showcase-lbs">Burning Questions: Linebackers</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/burning-questions-prep-rezone-new-england-stock-up-showcase-ol">Burning Questions: Offensive Linemen</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/burning-questions-prep-rezone-new-england-stock-up-showcase-dbs">Burning Questions: Defensive Backs</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/prep-redzone-new-england-stock-up-showcase-offensive-eye-test">Offensive Eye Test</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/prep-redzone-new-england-stock-up-showcase-defensive-eye-test">Defensive Eye Test</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/prep-redzone-new-england-camp-top-defensive-combine-scores">Top Combine Scores: Defense</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/prep-redzone-new-england-camp-top-offensive-combine-scores">Top Combine Scores: Offense</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/prep-redzone-new-england-camp-defensive-back-notebook-part-i">Scout's Notebook: Defensive Back, Part I</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/prep-redzone-new-england-camp-defensive-line-notebook-part-i">Scout's Notebook: Defensive Line, Part I</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/prep-redzone-new-england-camp-linebacker-notebook-part-i">Scout's Notebook: Linebacker, Part I</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/prep-redzone-new-england-camp-offensive-line-notebook-part-i">Scout's Notebook: Offensive Line, Part I</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/prep-redzone-new-england-camp-quarterback-notebook-part-i">Scout's Notebook: Quarterback, Part I</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/prep-redzone-new-england-camp-running-back-notebook-part-i">Scout's Notebook: Running Back, Part I</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/prep-redzone-new-england-camp-tight-end-notebook-part-i">Scout's Notebook: Tight End, Part I</a><br><a href="https://prepredzone.com/2026/02/prep-redzone-new-england-camp-wide-receiver-notebook-part-i">Scout's Notebook: Wide Receiver, Part I</a></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
