He plays like a surgeon, while not the biggest arm you'll see it's more than enough and will only keep developing. He's accurate in the pocket, and plays with poise not scared of pressure which is awesome for a freshman QB. He throws with anticipation especially on go balls and posts. In his tape he threw a post and split 2 safeties where his WR was able to make the grab. Another clip he was backed up on the 1-yard line and releases a ball 7 yards before the WR was in position and it landed perfectly in the basket. Ismael will keep on growing as his young career unfolds.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1373091"],"_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-6807ad9957419"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Achilles Anger-Youngblood only has a few clips of available tape, which is why he's on the watchlist at the moment, but the few clips scream potential, he has a clip on special teams where he lays a hit which is always a plus. But his athletic profile is what caught my eye, Anger-Youngblood is a wrestler which is always fun to see especially for a WR/ATH. Like I said the clips and tape are minimal but I do see something in Anger-Youngblood and I predict a rise in his stock after his sophomore season and when he gets more tape out.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1365267"],"_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-6807ad99574ad"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1365267' first='Cooper' last='Stiscak'] is intriguing he has good size and good mechanics. While he's going to have to wait his turn over at Pine-Richland he's gonna blow up the scene eventually. The mechanics and release are smooth and snappy. He has some mobile aspects to his game being able to make defenders miss in space. On top of that while not the biggest arm ever he's accurate and kills opposing defenses with poise and his accuracy. I'm excited to see what Stiscak does in the future.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1579118"],"_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-6807ad995755f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">I'm very intrigued by MyShawn Steals. He has solid size for a DB and he's very rangy at free safety. He has a knack for finding the ball in air and often is getting PBUs. When I watch him he's just an overall smooth athlete with loose hips and good change of direction ability. While I think his home for his varsity career is at DB he does have some range and value to be offered on the offensive side of the ball. Overall Steals will be a name to watch going into next season and seasons following.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1369402"],"_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-6807ad9957621"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1369402' first='Amauri' last='Jones-Lane'] was a fun one. At LB he's physical and shoots his gap fast and with a purpose. You see him sort of out athlete the kids he's playing against and it shows. His downfield burst rocks and his tackling ability is awesome often times getting to the hip and finishing the job of ball carriers. The quick and agile Jones-Lane will make waves in the coming seasons and will be a name to watch without a doubt.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
