<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>With the season right around the corner, we take a look at the top quarterbacks in the Natural State. Most, if not all, of these prospects will be playing on Saturdays in 2026. Here are ten quarterbacks to watch.

Norwood is a smart prospect who displays solid footwork within the pocket to step up and evade pressure while keeping his eyes downfield.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:embed {"url":"https://twitter.com/SladeNorwood/status/2063299501016662270?s=20","type":"rich","providerNameSlug":"x","responsive":true} --> <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/SladeNorwood/status/2063299501016662270?s=20 </div></figure> <!-- /wp:embed --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1229839"],"_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-6a43ff6b41670"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1229839' first='Aron' last='Orgil'] gets to compete in a whole new offense after transferring from Pulaski Academy to Bentonville West.
