Expert Analysis
Brendan Mankarious | Prep Redzone Scout
Another edge-type player, Joshua Heartwell Joshua Heartwell 5'10" | 160 lbs | TE West Orange | 2025 State NJ played to the tune of 17 tackles (1 solo), 4 tackles for loss, and 3 sacks as a junior. Heartwell appears to have a burst into the backfield, which I attribute to his aggressive, deep first two steps that he takes upfield upon the snap. He occupies pullers by taking them on and working to close down, scraping to his inside gap. Another subtle thing that Heartwell does well is that he looks to engage with his matchup with his hands above his eyes. This gives him the upper hand in terms of controlling his matchup by controlling his leverage and being in better position to shed and make plays. On the same token, he routinely uses his hands. Connected, Heartwell’s hand placement can improve. Rather than playing full-man, attacking a half-man will enable him to work matchups back more consistently and establish a new line of scrimmage with just 3-down linemen.
