<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Very impressive work from these young players, and I'll be covering them throughout this article. Within this article is a group of kids you should stay tuned for due to their stock rising, and I even added a little twist at the end.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2147430"],"_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-69aee4ca3fa4d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2147430' first='Justin' last='Oh'] </strong>is an extremely special player and is very polished at the wide receiver position. As I watched the film, he could not be guarded nor stopped. Justin is a phenomenal player, and he is very twitched up has some breakaway speed and very crisp route running. Justin can line up anywhere on the field and still win the rep and get you either a first's down or touchdown. He stays open like Waffle House 24/7 and I am advising all the observers that he is next up!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1637150"],"_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-69aee4ca3fb3c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1637150' first='Daven' last='Reed'] </strong>is an exceptional athlete, if you ever come against this kid good luck! Daven has an extremely powerful base and has a quick first step and when he put them paws on you trust and believe you will not be able to breakaway. On offense he creates massive gaps for his running backs to get through and has great pass blocking skills, and it also correlates to him on defense on the front line. Justin has great block shedding skills and closes up gaps quick and will make his presence felt. Keep your eyes on this kid standing at 6'4 315 he is a bulldozer and will ruin the opposition gameplan.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/78Daven_Reed/status/1998579480864997646?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/78Daven_Reed/status/1998579480864997646?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1311473"],"_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-69aee4ca3fb89"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1311473' first='Trey' last='Cherry'] </strong>is a very sound linebacker and very well rounded. Trey is listed as a Linebacker but can also play Safety and Nickel. Trey has tremendous change of direction and has very elite speed to close in on his opponents. This kid is a player I would dream of having on my team because he can do it all and gives it his all, you can tell he has so much love for the game and there is no doubt in my mind he is isn't a leader for his team. I definitely love his game and his sense of awareness to make a play and presence felt on every down. Trey is an amazing talent and somebody that will climb the rankings. STAY TUNED!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1692093"],"_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-69aee4ca3fbd1"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1692093' first='Braylon' last='Bates']</strong> is standing at 6'4 245 and is at the age of 16 years old. Braylon has violent hands and there is no way you're stopping this kid. He maintains a high motor and is unstoppable and he does an incredible job at setting the edge by containing the run from getting to the outside. Braylon is an elite talent that can get the job done no matter what, His Pass Rushing skills is amazing the opposing quarterback will not have any time to go through their reads because he will be right up in their grill. He is someone who will rise in the rankings for the class 2028 and I can't wait to see this kid get to the next level and ball out.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2049023"],"_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-69aee4ca3fc17"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2049023' first='Ethan' last='Hood']</strong> is Representing the class of 2030! He is 6'1 175 at quarterback and that is a good size for him already. This kid is special and there is no denying it. He showcased that he could read coverages well and can get the ball to where only his players can get it and also showed that he has an arm on him. Yes, he is young and coming out of 2030 but that's what make this kid a very interesting prospect because if he can do all this now and he barely scratched the surface I can't wait to see him put it all together over the years and become one of if not the best quarterback coming out of the class 2030. Ethan has a lot of Upside and the Celine is high for him.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/ethanhood_2030/status/2030448653953867781?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"twitter","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/ethanhood_2030/status/2030448653953867781?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

Very impressive work from these young players, and I'll be covering them throughout this article. Within this article is a group of kids you should stay tuned for due to their stock rising, and I even added a little twist at the end.
