<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>Today we will be taking a look at some up and coming quarterbacks in Colorado that have been turning heads through 8 weeks of football.

He's thrown for 1,852 yards with a 63% completion rate, firing 21 touchdowns against only five interceptions. On the ground, he's added another dimension to his game with 473 rushing yards and four scores. Wilson's ability to create both inside and outside the pocket makes him a nightmare for defenses, capable of extending plays or taking off for chunk gains. His command of the offense and poise under pressure have elevated his team into playoff contention. With his strong arm and athleticism, Wilson has established himself as one of the most complete quarterbacks in the state and a name that will draw college attention soon.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1970652"],"_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-68f91198af94e"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Dobbs is the definition of a competitor, a quarterback who finds ways to make plays even when things break down. With 1,172 passing yards and eight touchdowns, Dobbs has flashed his potential through the air, though turnovers have been an area he's looking to clean up with nine interceptions and a lost fumble. What makes him special is his ability to extend plays and use his athleticism effectively, rushing for 403 yards and four touchdowns. Dobbs brings energy and toughness to every snap, leading by example and playing with passion. If he can minimize mistakes and continue developing as a passer, Dobbs has the skill set to become one of the more exciting dual-threats in Colorado 4A football.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1592073"],"_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-68f91198af998"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Hume might not make headlines yet, but his efficiency and leadership are hard to ignore. With 1,133 yards passing, 13 touchdowns and only three interceptions, Hume has quietly put together a strong season. Completing 51% of his passes, he shows the willingness to take chances downfield while protecting the football. Though not known for scrambling, Hume has added 132 yards rushing, showing he can move the chains when necessary. His composure in the pocket and ability to read defenses make him a reliable presence under center. Hume is a player who continues to grow in confidence each week and his consistency gives his team a chance to win every time he takes the field.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1970758"],"_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-68f91198af9dd"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Merilatt has been a reliable presence for his team, showing composure and control throughout the season. With 1,128 yards passing, 12 touchdowns and five interceptions on a 60% completion rate, Merilatt has proven to be efficient and decisive with the football. While not known for his mobility, he's added 94 rushing yards and three touchdowns, showing the ability to finish drives when called upon. Merilatt reads defenses well and distributes the ball with confidence, keeping his offense balanced and efficient. As the postseason approaches, he's the type of quarterback who can quietly lead a deep run with his calm decision making and leadership. Merilatt's steady play makes him one of the more dependable arms in 4A football.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1971772"],"_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-68f91198afa1f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">Anacleto is quickly making his case as one of the top pocket passers in 4A. Completing 62% of his throws for 1,083 yards and 11 touchdowns with only two interceptions, Anacleto has shown tremendous poise and accuracy. His ability to stay calm under pressure and deliver tight window throws has drawn attention from college scouts. While he doesn't run often, he's shown he can make plays with his legs when needed, adding a rushing touchdown to his stat line. What sets Anacleto apart is his size, arm talent and mechanics, traits that translate well to the next level. As his confidence grows, expect him to continue putting up strong performances and solidifying himself as one of Colorado's premier quarterback prospects.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
