Next Up: Talented 2029s to Watch this Fall

<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Welcome back to Next Up!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Today, we're watching some talented 2029s we think are going to take huge steps in their sophomore seasons this fall.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We all need to watch out for this group heading into next season. They have a ton of talent and will be must-watch prospects over the next few years!</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1687721"],"_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-69e6a796205c9"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1687721' first='Maxwell' last='Abrams'] is a talented OT from Moody, who we saw impress in limited snaps last season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>"<em>It's incredibly hard to believe Abrams is only a freshman. He currently stands at 6'4 220, and has the physical traits and talents of someone much older than him. You can already tell he's super athletic- he has great strength/power, impressive leverage, and can move DL several yards off the line of scrimmage. We'll all have to look out for him moving forward.</em>"</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>I'm excited to see what Abrams can do moving forward. He's a talented trench prospect who's set up for a really bright future over the next few years. Even in limited snaps this past season, he really showed some impressive talent. I think we're all going to hear more from him over the next few years.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/26365602/699523ead968476cce050846' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69e6a796207d9"} /--> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2155180"],"_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-69e6a79620832"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2155180' first='Keston' last='Beck'] is a talented WR from Clay Chalkville who made a ton of impressive plays out wide last season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><em>"Beck has impressive speed, acceleration, and route running skills that he uses to quickly get off the line and downfield by generating serious separation from defenders.
