ESN PLAYER EVALUATION/NOTES
Ben is one of the top 2-way players in the state for the 2020 recruiting class. He is a top tier prospect on both sides of the ball. As a DE, he has the length and speed off the edge to put a ton of pressure on opposing QB’s. He has the burst to close fast on the football. He has excellent range to the sideline to cutoff runs before they go up field. He showed he has the power to bullrush but also has the hands as an experienced pass rusher. As a TE, he is a big play receiver that can make the acrobatic catch. He accelerates fast off the line of scrimmage. He gives a great effort blocking. He is a D1 talent on both sides of the ball. I like him more on defense but it will be about need and taste and preference of the college recruiting him. Power 5 talent.
