He shows natural hands and does a good job securing the football through contact. Marshall brings a physical presence to the position and profiles as a receiver who can win contested catches while continuing to develop his route refinement. - Eric Bergman PRZ IL Scout</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1953417' first='Aiden' last='Bennett'] (Kenwood)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Bennett is a major standout running back in the state of Illinois in the 2030 class. He has an insane amount of ability coming out of the backfield. He is also a tremendous athlete that has the physicality and ability to play linebacker but offensively at the RB position, he is the real deal and is a big-time player! - Austin Butler PRZ Next</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Ty'ree Dickson (Wheaton St. Francis)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Dickson is an advanced route runner for his age. He shows good tempo, understands leverage, and consistently gets defenders off balance. Dickson's dependable hands and football IQ allow him to find open windows and move the chains. - Eric Bergman PRZ IL Scout</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2099228' first='Kriston' last='Smith']</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Smith is a shifty receiver who stands out with his change-of-direction skills. He gets in and out of his breaks cleanly and showed strong route awareness during one-on-one drills. Smith consistently created space and displayed reliable hands, making him a tough cover. - Eric Bergman PRZ IL Scout</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1568642' first='Donovan' last='Humphrey'] (Wheaton St. Francis)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Humphrey was one of the most impressive overall athletes at the showcase. He dominated one-on-one reps as a receiver using his length, body control, and competitiveness. Humphrey also worked at cornerback and stood out defensively with ball skills and range, highlighting his high-level two-way potential.&nbsp; - Eric Bergman PRZ IL Scout</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>Max Michaelski (McHenry)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Michalski is the absolute real deal at the tight end position. He also plays edge defensively and he is a beast at that as well. However, since we are talking offensively, at the tight end position he stands out and uses his size to his advantage, Michalski has tremendous talent, hands, ability to run and move in ways to get open. He is one special athlete!&nbsp; - Austin Butler PRZ Next</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='2044293' first='Haven' last='Davison'] (Joliet Catholic)</strong></p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Davison is a stud running back and wide out. Davinson is a guy who can do it all at both positions. As a running back he has a strength of receiving out of the backfield because he can star at the wide out position. He is an awesome running back being able to use his agility and ability to put pressure on defenses. He is the real deal!&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; - Austin Butler PRZ Next</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->
