displayed in person further solidified that notion. A real 6’5, a real 290. Drone footage showed he work almost exclusively at guard during 1v1s. A ton of wins. As consistent as they can get, I can see Maldonado execute the same techniques over and over, a testament to whoever is training/developing the young man. He looked to approach each rep with the same mentality and tech, Maldonado set the tone during each 1v1 rep. Fantastic balance through contact, a kid you can rely on to recover quickly, yet those instances were few and far between at this event. A power absorber thanks to a strong lower back and fantastic build. No defender aligned across Maldonado rivaled him in size and strength, it was up to him to establish dominance utilizing both of those traits. He did just that. Great mirror man, can stay in front of lateral movers thanks to technique moreso athleticism. Maldonado is athletic, let’s not disregard that area of his game. Maldonado has the flexible hips and choppy feet necessary to stay in front of quick IDL. I think he could be a capable tackle at the next level too. Was named a top-five OL performer, was also named to the All-Camp 1st-Team list.
Coaches recruiting NJ on the timeline…
This is a Division One player.
Make sure you have this young man on your board. A few great reps here at L/R guard.
