<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>We have been hearing a lot about some of the skilled players in this class. It is great to be able to keep up with these guys during the offseason. Who are you looking forward to seeing this summer.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1237190' first='Deshawn' last='Dillon']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Dillon is one of those prospects who will start seeing his tock rise some more this offseason. He has been getting after it for a long time. Dillon was an 8th grader contributing to his varsity basketball team. He has been ready to rock and roll for a long time. Dillon is an incredible route runner who knows how to leave defensive backs in his dust. He plays for Northwest Rankin.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1091509' first='Xavier' last='Waters']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Waters is going to be a stud this season. We are expecting him to be a player with a lot of yards. He is one of those kids who is a really hard worker on the field. You are not going to see him out there shying away from contact. You are also going to see that he is a player who can be special returning punts and kicks.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1454426' first='Braylon' last='Key']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Key is a defensive back from South Panola (MS) who we like a lot. Key has the size to get back there and be a real dog at the safety position. We are expecting him to be a player who will pick up a lot of division one offers over the next few years. This kid is a beast with great instincts on how to get things done.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:heading --> <h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1241251' first='Chase' last='Craft']</strong></h2> <!-- /wp:heading --> <!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Craft is a player from Heidelberg who we have a lot of high hopes for. He plays quarterback, but we are thinking that he is going to be a wide receiver on the next level. This kid is a monster at making big plays. He has been carrying his team along with his other stand out teammates over the past couple of seasons. This is a guy to know.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph -->

We have been hearing a lot about some of the skilled players in this class. It is great to be able to keep up with these guys during the offseason. Who are you looking forward to seeing this summer.
