Expert Analysis
Vic Castillo | Prep Redzone Scout
A top-five performer. To be fair to all the LBs in attendance, Palmer is a tough guard for DBs in space, let alone much bigger backers. Palmer was a WR who missed our first session, yet stayed late to perform with backs during the event’s second session.
A get-open-in-a-phone-booth type of athlete, it’s likely Palmer would have made 1st-session DBs look silly just as he did backers. Not sure there was one rep lost on Palmer’s end. A fantastic weapon in spread looks, having Palmer work without a line, without much physical push-back, it was like stealing candy from a baby. Ish Palmer had his way at this event, he was also second in line to be named RB MVP. Positional difference made me lean toward Gowans, yet the Bishop McDevitt three-sport athlete has done enough in front of me this offseason to warrant a ranking. Excited to represent him among his senior peers.
9’1 broad for a 5’6 prospect. 4.55 40-yard dash.
Here’s how Ishmael was moving yesterday. 👀 tough ask to keep him handled in space. @IshmaelPalmer2 https://t.co/2YV4GCOI7n pic.twitter.com/SfopAe1OhU
