The Niagara Falls prospect stands around 5'8" 160-Pounds displaying a small frame for the position. He can improve by reaching minimum 170-Pounds, and adding more weight as he grows. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Evaluation: </strong>Turner has a ton of special teams reps, and shows the ability to field the ball along with becoming a lead blocker or key contributor for any squad. As a pass catcher, reps were limited, but he showed solid hands and the ability to run routes. He has snaps as a Punter as well, where he is a solid player who can flip the field with his legs. Overall Turner is a developmental prospect who showcases some potential on Special Teams, and as a Punter. As a Pass Catcher I need to see more from him. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1642278"],"_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-6a3bf3dae020b"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Background</strong>: Standing at 6'2" 185-Pounds, [player_tooltip player_id='1642278' first='Jahmir' last='Jones'] displays a solid frame for the WR Position. He is well within his height and weight. The Archbishop Stepinac Prospect, can play on both sides of the ball for the Crusaders as a WR, or a DB. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Evaluation:</strong> Jones can seriously play both sides of the ball, and with more reps and film can easily see a rise to his ranking. He is a patient pass catcher, who has elite hands, and follows through on catches. After the catch he is just as deadly, showcasing good footwork, and a high motor attacking the ground with every step, and swerving in and out of pockets, avoiding tackles. I would like to see more routes on his tape, and gaining separation off the line, and at the top of his routes, can give him more room to work across the field. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1513208"],"_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-6a3bf3dae0257"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Background</strong>: Dorsey is part of a talented Bishop Ludden squad that should make some noise this season in the Syracuse region. Standing at 5'7" 155-Pounds, he has an undersized frame for the WR position, and should look to add weight as he grows. Minimum he should look to reach the 175-Pound mark to help fill out his frame. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Evaluation:</strong> Dorsey has limited film, but shows some promise through what I have watched. He mainly worked from the slot with Bishop Ludden. He can make solid catches across the field, and shows the ability to rack up ball at all three level of the field. I like his hands, and through the reps I saw he was consistently open, and sitting in between the defense showing a high IQ and understanding of schemes. Dorsey has the potential to become a solid pass catcher, but I need to see more from the Section Three Prospect. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2108929"],"_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-6a3bf3dae029c"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Background</strong>: Cleary has an exceptional frame for a WR. Standing at 6'5", he is a tall elite prospect. He should look to fill out his frame as he is on the slim side weighing in at 175-Pounds. 200-Pounds should be his minimum weight. Cleary has the frame to reach the D1 Level, but the production needs to be there for the Shoreham-Wading River Prospect. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700"><strong>Evaluation:</strong> Cleary is a true #1 receiver, and has the ability to go up and make catches given his frame. He has a high IQ, and understands how to gain separation with his footwork. He is an elusive prospect and is extremely difficult prospect to tackle. He has solid speed, and moves well for a prospect of his size. Cleary is a player who should be a true number one threat for any squad. Cleary needs to be fed this season, and should find himself higher on lists as he progresses through High School. </p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
