Here are four standouts from the defensive side of the ball.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1278396"],"_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-69ee094bc25d6"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I saw [player_tooltip player_id='1278396' first='CJ' last='Hall'] nearly one year ago and he keeps getting better. Hall is a tall, long-limbed pass rusher with a high motor and a quick first step. He uses his length to shed blocks, dominating in one-on-ones and being hard to contain. He plays with adequate bend and pad level, his size, length and frame are all college ready, and he has plenty of time to keep getting better. Holds offers from EKU, Miami-Ohio, Dartmouth and Brown.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1598083"],"_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-69ee094bc267b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1598083' first='Deion' last='Walker'] might as well have taken home camp MVP honors, because the 6-foot, 280-pound defensive tackle could not be tamed. In one-on-ones, Walker was unstoppable. Wins with great first-step quickness, very explosive interior DL who flashes a spin move with good use of hands. Launches his hands well, sheds blocks and will be a nice run-plugging defensive tackle at the college level with enough speed to cause offenses problems in the passing game. Very, very disruptive prospect.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2047511"],"_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-69ee094bc26fa"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2047511' first='Chaz' last='Tutt'] has the goods. Tutt is well put together: he has a tall, long, athletic frame, with a high butt, long arms and very rangy. Like his cousin, Korey, Tutt can fire out of a cannon as a down lineman and win on his first step. Very violent use-of-hands with the frame to get bigger and stronger in a college program. He may be one of the most underrated players in the country as he holds no offers.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1375201"],"_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-69ee094bc2772"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Korey Tutt has big-time potential. The 6-foot-2, 235 pound prospect really shoots out of a cannon from his spot as an Edge. Very explosive, very twitchy prospect, a sudden mover who can dip his shoulder and turn the corner against opposing offensive lineman. Turn him loose off the edge and he can really wreck havoc on opposing QBs. Dangerous when free. Takes on double-team blocks, plays with great bend and leverage, and has the speed to turn the corner. Really like his motor and effort.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
