Earning 1st team all division this past fall, Nazir stood tall as he helped lead West Side to a 7-2 record (and 4-0 in the division.) Nazir is that prototypical passer you'd want to command an offense. Good size and a cannon for an arm, Nazir is able to deliver the ball wherever its needed on the field.u003cbru003eu003cbru003eTossing for 1807 passing yards and 17 touchdowns in 2022, Nazir dominated as a fluid thrower that gets his whole body into the throw. A man of many different velocities, Nazir is able to add zip to the ball when he needs to thread the needle, but can also put excellent touch on it when tossing it to the corner of the end zone. West Side is bringing back one of the strongest offensive units in the state, and Nazir is right in front leading the charge.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6467798eed4f3"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/14603172/635c06607bdda716b40b228a' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6467798eed565"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"[player_tooltip player_id='1025989' first='Nayad' last='Walker']","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2410","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"2024","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Another West Side product, [player_tooltip player_id='1025989' first='Nayad' last='Walker'] is a name you need to become more familiar with. If you're looking for a speed demon, Nayad is your man. With 633 receiving yards and 7 touchdowns to go with it in 2022, Nayad is an all around dominant receiver. Defenders need to be careful when lining up against Nayad. If the corner gets caught looking into the backfield, you can be sure Nayad will make them regret it when he sprints right by. He is able to track the ball in air extremely well and consistently catches it at its highest point. A pass catcher that is itching to make a defender look silly with his impressive agility, look for Nayad and the West Side receiving co. to make a lot of big plays in 2023.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6467798eed5d7"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/15327816/6366a8912aa7ab0748edc242' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6467798eed5fb"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["749316"],"_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_0_evaluation":"This whole list could be composed of only West Side players, however, this one will be playing for Weequahic in 2023. Another receiver returning for the 2023 is [player_tooltip player_id='749316' first='Darrell' last='Barrow']. Darrell may be the smaller of the two West Side receivers on this list, but what he lacks in size he makes up with killer speed and nimbleness. Darrell is able to weave in and out of defenders as he fluidly out maneuvers them. He brought in 332 receiving yards and 3 touchdowns in 2022, but don't be surprised if we see those numbers double this next season. Darrell will be able to make a name for himself in a new environment in 2023.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6467798eed665"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/18388129/636959c438642d0c30da9646' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6467798eed687"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["378673"],"_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_0_evaluation":"[player_tooltip player_id='378673' first='Maurice' last='Williams'] is one of the best returners from Patriot Red. In only 6 games he was able to pass for 1405 yards and 19 touchdowns, and on top of that he ran for 501 yards and ran the ball into the end zone 4 times.rnrnThe soon to be senior QB for Orange has phenomenal arm talent. He can deliver the ball with perfect touch when he needs to float it over defenders, and also tosses it with great accuracy and timing. On top of his throwing skills, Maurice is dangerous with the ball in his hands. He can escape the pocket and make defenders regret missed tackles. Maurice is one of my top QBs for the 2024 NJ class, and he should be highly sought after.","_player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"field_62aba51aecf34","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6467798eed6f0"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/hudl {"name":"acf/hudl","data":{"embed_code":"u003ciframe src='https://www.hudl.com/embed/video/3/14145919/6355c97f3df5110f70e85605' width='640' height='360' frameborder='0' allowfullscreenu003eu003c/iframeu003e","_embed_code":"field_62daf7995fd8c"},"mode":"edit","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-6467798eed712"} /--> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":["not_in_db"],"_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_selected_featured_image":"field_62cca28ffa4e7","player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"Rocky Rodriguez","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_player_name":"field_62aba4c9ecf2f","player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"2024","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_graduating_class":"field_62aba4ddecf30","player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"null","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_height":"field_62aba4e8ecf31","player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"2408","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_position":"field_62aba4f0ecf32","player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"Bayonne","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_school":"field_62aba4fdecf33","player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details_club_team":"field_62d20e723441a","player_evaluations_0_player_details":"","_player_evaluations_0_player_details":"field_62aba4afecf2e","player_evaluations_0_evaluation":"Rocky Rodriguez is our final player on the list, and he is one of those versatile offensive talents that can be put anywhere on the field and be successful.
