Henry Allebach

@allebachhenry
A nice young prospect who already has good size, good experience and the ability to mislead defensive backs and then beat them over the top. He has a strong arm and good instincts and is able to make big throws leading the receiver into the end zone. Allebach has good confidence in his game and is able to stay in the pocket and work through his progressions and find receivers just as they are creating separation. Has good vision and can scan the field quickly and is also very coachable.

@cartdogBoyd
A talented prospect who shows very good timing and touch, Boyd is a strong stock riser who shows good potential in his overall game. He is very fluid and is able to make terrific throws on the move and in the pocket. He has a clean release and is consistently making the right decision when facing pressure. He can scramble and create and even make some off-balance throws but is also comfortable with making plays in the pocket. A player with some upside and strong technique who is already showing mobility, timing and very good footwork in the pocket.

He pushes himself hard and is constantly working and constantly improving. He can lead his receivers down the field and has a lot of power to his throws. He steps up in the pocket and can get distance to his throws while in motion as well.

Jake Curry, 5’11, 180, QB, 2024, Edwardsville (Ill.)
@Jake_Curry2
A strong, mobile and also an underrated QB option who is able to find receivers along the sideline when it looks like there’s no room for them to complete a play. Curry has some real playmaking ability, he sees the field and is able to make throws before defenders make contact. He can step up in the pocket but also make throws on the run and put the ball in a smart place. Has a strong arm for his size and can air things out on big plays with what appears to be very little effort on his part. He constantly throws tight spirals both on the move and away from his body and when he is able to plant his feet and step into his throws. An underrated player overall.
