He has an excellent frame, broad shoulders and carries his weight extremely well. He is a physical player who displays his strength and violent style of play with every rep. For a player his size, he moves well and has good lateral quickness. He does mix in speed with his power and is a force on the interior. He overwhelms his lineman and he should see an uptick in his recruitment.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["876876"],"_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-69e054d596d4e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Sua has all the tools and pathway to be a breakout performer this season. He is a lineman who has put on good weight this offseason and he blends the power game with speed well. He has good lateral movement and does well with hand fighting. He's a player that keeps improving everytime I see him. It'll be a fun final season for him. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1678547"],"_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-69e054d596dda"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I've seen William a few of times now from this past season to offseason workouts and everytime I see him, he gets bigger and bigger. He is a player who is understanding how to play with his new frame and that growth spurt will do wonders for him. He's a physical player who has good strength and shows quick hands. He has a good understanding of leverage and does well with his pad level. He's a player who will only continue to get better and he has the potential to be a FCS caliber player</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1694036"],"_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-69e054d596e5d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Aisea is a player that I've seen multiple times this offseason and he is someone who catches the eye each time. He has a good frame and has good size on him. He is an athletic mover and is light on his feet. His footwork is fun to watch, and that skillset is on a physical, strong frame and from the first snap, you see him put everything together. He can win with brute strength, and he can use that footwork to win with technique. He is best as an interior defensive lineman, but there are plenty of traits to like with him.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Those were some players who have caught the eye this offseason.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

Let's continue our look at some players we've seen up close this offseason and how they are spending their time as they prepare for the summer ahead.
