Expert Analysis
Cory Lemer | Prep Redzone Scout
Sutton made his presence felt early in the North East. The North Dakota QB, was named the Accuracy Challenge Co Winner in the 2028 Class. The 6’0″ 185-Pound QB, had an impressive day against some of the top QB’s across the north east. He showcased a strong arm, with good footwork. I liked his ability to throw a quick strike, while keeping the ball at a perfect level. His comeback routes were excellent, and he put the ball on the money on every throw. The Midwest QB, dominated in the North East this past weekend.

who is also our consesus QB1 in the North Dakota 2028 class. I did have too many quarterbacks on my early eye test before testing got started, but Ryder was one that certainly stuck out from his last time at our showcase in Aberdeen. You could grasp early, that Ryder is workhorse with every rep he is given as he attacked the early reps pre-showcase with attentive vision and man, could he pick up his top speed quickly. You can see why when you look at the testing numbers Ryder put up. He went 4.4 in the pro shuttle and a whopping 6.9 in the L-drill. He was another quarterback my gut told me pre-showcase that had an opportunity to win the QB MVP and he did so with ease. He has monster arm-strength and excellent ball placement that he showed all-day at our Prep Redzone Showcase and no-doubt is a wrecking force outside of the pocket with use of his legs. Ryder should surely be an early offer in this 2028 class that Division 1 schools should make.

Ryder was a contender for quarterback MVP his last time out at our Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase and he got his title on Sunday showing exactly why he is our QB1 in the 2028 class out of North Dakota. He showed off the strong arm talent on all three levels as every throw I watched had some heat on it no matter where on the field Ryder was throwing it in to. He also was improved with his ball placement as all the throws he completed where on the moeny to get his wide receiver upfield. Easily the highest poise level in the quarterback group as Ryder was cool, calm and collected when he was dialed in during 1v1s. He’s also grown from an athletic standpoint, as took 4th on our scoreboard on our new Universal Speed in the pro shuttle with a 4.4 flat which is impressive, as Ryder was the only quartertback on any of those scoreboards from Sunday.

is signed up for our Prep Redzone Dakotas Showcase and I would expect him to surely be one competing for QB MVP on Sunday. He grew in his sophomore season developing a quicker release and growing his precision with his throws on all three levels. His elsuiveness too will be something I will be watching for in Aberdeen on Sunday making throws out of the pocket, as that is another area that saw a lot of growth in his sophomore season.

We had a gut feeling our QB1 in the North Dakota 2028 class would have a big sophomore season, but I feel Ryder has even taken the top off of those expectations. A week or so ago, he led 11AAA in passing yards, rushing yards, and was third overall in rushing yards outside of the quarterback position with nearly 1000 total yards already for the Magicians. We were well aware that Ryder had the best arm talent in this ND 2028 class, but man the mobility outside of the pocket he is showing off is moving the needle in my eyes even more as a prospect.

out of Minot High. Ryder was one that pre-showcase I was fired up to get a live eval on and it lived up to the hype to what I saw on tape. He showed off some of the best mechanics I saw in the underclassmen group of quarterbacks. The fluidity and timing I witnessed watching Ryder go thru his progressions were well-versed and he showed off balanced touch on each throw I got to watch during his reps in 1v1s. I can tell based on the football IQ that Ryder has already, that he processes at a higher game-speed than the testing numbers might show at the moment. And you have to factor in, this young man is just a freshman that has plenty of time and room to grow and develop with his athleticism in a testing setting. Being a four-sport athlete, will grow that athleticism very quickly in my eyes.

. Ryder is has some of the smoothest mechanics I have ever uncovered in a freshmen quarterback in the Dakotas and has huge arm strength and precision for his age. I’ll be intrigued to watch his sudden elusiveness outside the pocket during the live reps on Saturday as the 5’10 175 pounder is our inaugural QB1 in this newer 2028 class. He has a great understanding with his football IQ for his age understanding the proper throw speed for any given route that is thrown his way. Although just a freshmen, I already love the odds of Ryder being an early offer target from this class.
