The Dual Threat QB, led Jamestown to a solid record in 2025 and is looking to keep the momentum going in 2026.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Size</strong>: Standing at 6'0" 190-Pounds, the Jamestown QB, displays an excellent frame for the QB Position. He is perfectly within his weight and height on the QB Chart, and should look to reach 200-Pounds, to finish off his build. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Arm Accuracy</strong>/<strong>Strength</strong>: Grey has a solid arm which is on full display given his tape. His ability to hit all three levels of the field is showcased. His accuracy is solid and he can hit throws with tight windows.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Footwork</strong>/<strong>Mechanics</strong>: Grey showcases solid footwork and mechanics, but sometimes plants his feet, affecting throws. His balls come out quick, but can be sped up to improve accuracy.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>IQ</strong>: His IQ, is evident, and he progress through his reads well, and finds the open playmaker with ease. He moves well through the pocket and keeps his area clean. He limits mistakes and distributes the ball well.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Final Word</strong>: A young solid QB Grey is. He can improve in his footwork and mechanics moving forward, but I like his IQ, and arm strength which allows him to get the ball to his playmakers. A solid rising WNY prospect. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1864262"],"_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-69ff9a95bb8dd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Background</strong>: Hailing from Grand Island, the 2028 Signal Caller is fresh off a solid season slinging the ball, and is amongst one of the best in the region. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Size</strong>: Standing at 5'10" 175-Pounds, Mantione displays a solid frame for a QB. He is on the lower side of both the height and weight chart, but his current frame is perfect for a QB. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Arm Accuracy</strong>/<strong>Strength</strong>: Mantione showcases the ability to launch the ball 40+ yards down the field, and hit all three levels with ease. His accuracy is on display as well, as downfield he is exceptional putting the ball on the money. Middle-Short passes he can improve accuracy on. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Footwork</strong>/<strong>Mechanics</strong>: His mechanics are pretty, and he showcases a beautiful touch on his throws while launching it downfield. His footwork is also solid, and outside the pocket we see exceptional footwork while throwing. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>IQ</strong>: He showcases a high IQ, and he is a true play extender dual threat QB. He can distribute the ball easily and is consistently looking for open playmakers. I like his ability to avoid pressure in the pocket, and he keeps his area clean while throwing. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Final Word</strong>: Mantione is an exceptional QB, who will easily see improvement this season as a Junior. I like what he brings to the table with his IQ, and arm accuracy. His footwork and mechanics can use some work, but with two years to improve he is easily a player on the rise. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2175824"],"_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-69ff9a95bb93e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Background</strong>: Loncar transfered in from Canisius and will be the starter for North Tonawanda this season. He is a dual threat QB, who utilizes his legs and arms across the field.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Size</strong>: Loncar has a solid frame, and showcases a young growing build for a QB. Standing at 6'2" 175-Pounds, he should look to fill out his frame and reach the 190-200-Pound mark before ending High School. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Arm Accuracy</strong>/<strong>Strength</strong>: Loncar showcases a strong arm and displays the ability to toss the ball 40+ yards with ease. He can hit all three levels of the field, and does so with solid accuracy. Fine tweaking is needed for Loncar in both aspects. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Footwork</strong>/<strong>Mechanics</strong>: His footwork is exceptional inside the pocket and he stands tall, delivering accurate and exceptional throws inside the pocket. His mechanics are solid, and his ability to deliver the ball with good touch along with a quick release. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>IQ</strong>: Loncar with a small sample size showcased good vision, and navigated the pocket. He kept his eyes downfield, and worked through his progressions well. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Final Word</strong>: Oscar is an exceptional QB, who saw himself make the rankings in this cycle. I like his mechanics and his footwork a lot, and he can polish both moving forward. He should also look to work on his accuracy and strength moving forward. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
