The All American Showcase once again proved why it’s one of the premier stages for top football talent. With elite athletes from around the country in attendance, a number of standouts put on a show.
From dominant trench play to explosive receivers and versatile two-way stars, these prospects didn’t just hold their own, they thrived against elite competition.
QB
MVP - 2026 QB Robert Green III (CA)

Predominant pocket passer, comes from a spread run-pass option scheme in high school. Demonstrates good foot quickness and body quickness in the pocket, showing a natural ability to extend plays with his feet in or outside the pocket.
MVP - 2027 QB Landen Holley (FL)

Displays good arm strength as a passer, showing the ability to make every throw on the field. Flashes accuracy at every level possessing an ability to throw his receivers open and play with anticipation.
2027 QB Wyatt Frey (NE)

Has a poise to his passing game in the pocket but also excels with his ability to improvise and extend plays with his feet. More of a passer, but you have to respect his feet as a runner.
2029 QB Trevor Scott (CA)

Adept pocket passer that displays rhythmic timing and great touch on passes outside the numbers. Scott has the intellectual capacity to handle checks at the line of scrimmage and in-play processing skills in a pro-style offense.
2027 QB Jackson Becker (KS)

Alters arm angles and delivers with accuracy. Vertical arm strength, intermediate velocity, and touch to all fields speak to great arm talent.
2026 QB Lane Clement (TN)

Fluid mover in general, including arm motion and lower-body mechanics. Range of motion in movement patterns fosters excellent off-platform passing ability and general playmaking acumen.
2027 QB Jaydyn Irving (CA)

Does a nice job of reading coverages and does well throwing into windows against zone coverages. Anticipates well and gets rid of the ball quickly. Throws with good touch down the field.
2027 QB Karsen Sellers (LA)

He has an easy delivery and the ball jumps out of his hand. He’s elusive in the pocket, runs well and is very capable of picking up chunks of yards on zone reads or escaping pressure and taking off.
2027 QB Brycen Wells (TX)

Can throw receivers open and gives his playmakers a chance to go get the ball. Physical traits are good, but it is his intangible traits that are elite as well as his accuracy and understanding of the game.
OL
MVP - 2026 OL Khalil Sanogo (TX)

Well-rounded player with solid technique, length and body control. Relishes finishing blocks and smart player. Sinks hips and flexibility shines with ability to bend lower body and twist torso.
2026 OL Gio Correa (MA)

Plays aggressively and remains engaged on blocks. Tough for defenders to disengage. Sinks hips and uncoils well when engaging defender.
2027 OL Beau Georges (LA)

In the run game, Georges shows speed in getting in front of runner when pulling. Can locate the defender and make block in space. Gets low, engages and continues to pump his legs to drive player back.
2026 OT Francisco Adams (TX)

Hand placement is consistently inside defender and is tough to disengage. In pass pro, Adam’s is ahead of most high school players. Pops up quickly and sits in base well. Shows kick step and is measured and assertive with initial punch

2026 OL Drelynd Riggle (TX)

Longer legs, on the other hand, allow him to eat up a ton of space as he moves left or right, depending on the blocking scheme. Understands how to establish a firm base and set up for hand-to-hand combat, but must get better at engaging pass rushers on his own time frame instead of simply catching.
2026 OL Preston Liberal (WA)

A trench bully of sorts that can win with his hands and a rather strong punch. Does a nice job of finding leverage and playing through the whistle for a youngster. Longer arms (reports a seven-foot wingspan) allow him to swallow up would-be tacklers and open up holes for the run game.
2026 OL Rodolfo Garcia (TX)

Good body control and quickness along with solid flexibility in knees and ankles. Light on his feet and able to change direction for a big man.
2026 OL Austin Blatter (CO)

2027 DB Tavon Bolden (TX)

Has a pure cover corner skill set with the ability to flip his hip and change direction quickly. Shows high-level ball skills as he locates and tracks the ball downfield. The #HTX DB has been gaining quite a bit of #buzz earning offers from #ASU, #Houston, #KState, #IowaSt & others.
2028 DB Jordan Hasker (TX)

Highly disruptive player with good traits to play multiple positions and alignments. Uses explosive first step to shoot through gaps and wreck havoc in the backfield.
2027 DT Bryce Jackson (TX)

A natural pass rusher with high end physical upside. Long arms, great first step and the closing speed to run down plays from behind.
2025 DL Wyatt McKenzie (TX)

Plays in a two-point/three-point stance and has one of the best dip and bend moves in this class. Extremely tough to block because of his ability to get lower and change direction back toward the quarterback.
2026 EDGE Sidney Catlett (DC)

Motor runs high and manifests in physical style of play regardless of alignment. Strong in the phone booth and effective against the run because of it.
2026 DT D’Juan Morrison (KS)

Ability to close gaps is impressive. So is his seek-and-destroy mentality as a tackler as he will strike ball carriers with authority and then roll his hips through contact.
2026 LB Cale McPeek (OK)

Hyper-aware. Competent in space and capable of dropping into zone. Should be able to match up in man at times. Excellent snap anticipation as a rusher with linear closing speed to match.

Flat-out football player. Varied on-field experience on both sides as a ball carrier, three-point and off-ball defender, and over the slot.

Shows clear linear acceleration and top-end gear, especially for size. Athletic enough as a runner to bounce to the boundary and beat pursuit angles.
2027 LB Emarion Bell (OH)

Screams downhill when locked on a target. Because he's gotten snaps with a hand on the ground, has experience playing above his weight. Shows encouraging anticipation and breaking ability in coverage with plus ball skills for a linebacker projection.
2026 LB Gabriel Heredia (FL)

Plays mad and hits with purpose. Can provide the big hit. Good feel for the game and playing
2027 LB Tristian Gaviria (TX)
