For the state of Kentucky, the updated Top 150 rankings for the talented 2025 class have been posted. With that being said, I will be taking the next couple weeks to breakdown these updated rankings by position. After already covering the quarterback, running back, and wide receiver positions, I will now turn my attention to our top tight ends in the state of Kentucky in the class of 2025.
Graham Dunn Graham Dunn 6’2″ | 195 lbs | TE Frederick Douglass | 2025 State KY is a player that will be moving in to a bigger role this season after being the TE2 to senior Thomas Howard last season. As a sophomore, Dunn caught three passes for 40 yards. Dunn is a true threat in the passing game showing the ability to run routes like a receiver. He has very reliable hands and has the speed and elusiveness to pick up yards after the catch. Dunn is also a reliable blocker in the run game, showing the ability to wall off his man to create a lane for the ball carrier. Graham currently holds offers from Eastern Kentucky and Miami (OH), and I expect more to come his way as his role in the Broncos’ offense continues to grow.
Cameron Jessee Cameron Jessee 6’2″ | 230 lbs | ATH Louisville DuPont Manual | 2025 State KY is a tight end that truly caught my attention last season. He finished his sophomore year with 11 receptions for 188 yards and two touchdowns. Jessee is a very impressive blocker in the run game. He plays with a ton of physicality, showing the ability to drive his man out of picture and finish his blocks through the whistle. Cameron is also reliable in the passing game, showing very reliable hands with a high catch radius along with the ability to turn up the field and pick up extra yards after the catch. Jessee currently holds an offer from Eastern Kentucky and I expect more to come his way as he has the talent to play at the Division I level.
Highlights
Andrew Vrbancic Andrew Vrbancic 6’3″ | 220 lbs | TE Louisville Male | 2025 State KY is another tight end that caught my attention last season. He finished his sophomore season with 13 receptions for 128 yards and four touchdowns. Andrew is a very reliable blocker in the run game. He has shown the ability to explode out of his stance and drive his man down the field to create a running lane for the ball carrier. Vrbancic also does a great job of getting up to the second level and picking up blocks in open space. In the passing game, Andrew is a smooth route runner that does a great job of creating separation and has very reliable hands. He also holds some special teams value as he serves as Male’s long snapper. While Andrew doesn’t currently hold any offers, I expect some to come his way over the next couple seasons as he has the talent to play somewhere at the next level.
