Continue ReadingIn my series of 2025 Prospects due to have a break out spring in their recruitment, we move on to the TEs. A good mix of all types of TEs here, something for everybody. Those types being a your Flex types, classic inline TEs and Hybrid/H-back style. All types are needed in todays game and have value depending on a teams scheme/play style.
Alijah is a tall long WR who I feel will make the transition to being an athletic Flex TE. All 0f 6’5″ with a massive wingspan he can work the middle of the field and be a threat in the end zone. Smooth athlete, runs well with fluid hips and a big catch radius. Can use his frame to shield the defender from the ball. Has a frame that will fill out nicely and is a willing blocker, so he should only improve in that as he continues to get stronger.
Dominic is the classic do it all TE that is both a strong blocker and receiver. Big frame kid at 6’4″ 210 and will fill out with good muscle and be thicked up dude. Can be flexed out if needed as he is a good athlete, who also plays lacrosse and shows good footwork. He runs well with burst off the line, works across the middle of the field and get yards after the catch. Will go in motion and be a move TE and work the flats. Mainly see his best fit as an inline TE as he is a very effective blocker for the position. Strong, gets a good base and will get into the defenders chest and drive him down the field. A versatile, well rounded skill set player who sports a 3.7 GPA. He will be an offer kid in my mind.

AJ is a former QB turned TE and I could see him really shining this off-season and having a big Senior campaign. A big, strong, physical player, he doesn’t go down easily and fights for yards. Can work the seam, shows soft hands and plays fast. Another prototype size TE who can be a strong look for schools as he develops, one to watch for.
Jack is a true move TE/H-back style player. He was 2nd team all WCAC TE this past season because of the all the ways he can impact the game. A powerful blocker, he will lay into defenders and open up holes for the RB. Is used in motion to create mismatches and get open into the flats. Runs hard after the catch, fights through arm tackles and can go, showing some good acceleration after the catch. Could be used more in the pass game as he has some more to offer in my opinion. For the next level, any team that uses that move TE who is a major plus in helping out as run blocker – Jack is their guy!
