<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Colorado is full of talented players. Today, I will be diving into 5 linebackers from the 2028-2029 class to keep an eye on as we begin camp season. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1646082"],"_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-6a0682d4dbeae"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Dahl measures in at 6'0 200-pounds. He's got good size for a linebacker as a 2029. This past season, he had 11 total tackles (5 solo, 6 assisted) with 1 pass deflection. Played special teams too. Dahl is a downhill threat. He's a physical aggressive hitter and makes his presence known. Dahl has solid change of direction, good acceleration, and speed. He'll consistently play through the whistle helping his teammates finish up tackles. Good get off and block shedding. Good tackling too. With more opportunities to come, I'm excited to see how Dahl continues to attack the off-season and make his name known.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2169024"],"_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-6a0682d4dbeea"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Mainvielle is a rising linebacker to keep an eye this camp season and upcoming season. Measures in at 5'9 185-pounds. Mainvielle was a consistent presence at our Exposure Series last month. Demonstrates good athletic ability due to his good lateral quickness, speed, and acceleration. Good strength and tackling as well. Mainvielle is a downhill threat who will continue to improve his game throughout the off-season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2107793"],"_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-6a0682d4dbf0d"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Jacobs measures in at 6'1 200-pounds.
