Jae Beasley Jae Beasley 6'2" | 235 lbs | TE Liberty | 2024 State NV (Liberty) is another major D-I prospect at the TE position in the NV 2024 class.
Lofton’s one of the premier TEs in the country and arguably the top overall prospect in Nevada. He’s a polished, multi-tool TE with elite receiving ability and a powerful blocker in the run game. He makes plays from every spot on the field, totaling 30 catches for 700+ yards and 11 TDs and another 7 TDs on 10 carries out of the backfield as a junior. Lofton’s loaded offer sheet includes Miami, Utah, Texas A&M, Washington, and Texas.
Beasley’s a strong athlete on both sides of the ball at TE/DE that offers potential on either side of the ball at the next level. He’s a reliable short-intermediate target that possesses natural hands and moves well in space after the catch. He shows physicality as a run blocker out on the edge and can service as a lead blocker out of the backfield. Beasley just picked up his 6th D-I offer from Princeton with other offers from Nevada, Utah St., Hawaii, UNLV, and Colorado St.
Porter’s an athletic receiving threat that can line up at TE or out of the slot. He presents a physical frame and notable length as a target at 6’2”/235 with ability to extend his catch radius and soft hands to finish the catch. He’s a physical ball-carrier after the catch that bounces off tackles and finishes aggressive downhill. Porter recently picked up his first two offers from Minot St. and Minnesota Duluth.
Highlights
Carpenter’s a raw TE prospect with major upside in his size, length, and receiving skillset at 6’5”/225. He’s still growing into his body and possesses the frame to continue adding mass/weight. He’s most effective as a receiver leaking out into the flat and working the middle of the field against zone coverage. Carpenter’s drawn interest from several MW programs and could see some offers come in with continued improvement and production in his senior season.
