Over the next month, I will break down these rankings by position in each class, including other segments. For the tight ends, I will provide you with evaluations of some of the top prospects and the players flying under the radar:     [player_tooltip player_id='557681' first='Hayden' last='Sublette'] lands at number one on our board for the position. He's a versatile prospect who can also block, catch, and dominate on the defensive line. He showcases good run-blocking ability, creating running lanes by sealing EDGE or reaching the linebackers in the second level. He can dominate the short and intermediate levels of the field with his solid foot quickness, length, and strong hands to win vs contest. His size, power, and physicality cause a mismatch in coverage, making him an easy target for the quarterback. Sublette can win the 1v1 jump balls as he showcases strong hands, good hand-eye coordination to high point the football, and adjusts mid-route.

He has very good size and solid athletic ability. He is a reliable target for the quarterback who displays strong hands, good length, and can win vs contest, giving his QB an extensive window. Rawls displays good ball-tracking skills and hand-eye coordination, allowing him to catch during contests, over-the-shoulder throws, or high-point the football. Solid mental processing as he knows how to find the soft spot within his routes vs. zone coverage. In the running game, he has the ability to block on the edge on outside zones with good hand placement and pad level, creating running lanes.

Branam is quick off the line of scrimmage and displays solid acceleration and foot quickness. He also has strong hands, solid hand-eye coordination, and body control to adjust mid-route. He's also a willing blocker in space and inline. He is someone to watch throughout 2024.   Note - Multi Position Athlete   https://x.com/BranamAsa     [player_tooltip player_id='1308507' first='Will' last='Marlin'] comes in at number five on our board and rising on my list. He's a physical tight end with strong hands. Marlin displays good initial quickness off the LOS and a good ability to create separation at his breaks due to good direction, balance, and burst changes. He has solid foot speed and athletic ability with smooth route running. Good hand-eye coordination and body control to adjust mid-route, high point the football, win vs contest or rack in towards the sideline. A true red zone or third-down threat. Good run blocking ability, demonstrating good angles, hand placement, and leg drive to create running lanes for the ball carriers. He can play inline, Y, or H-Back. A versatile prospect that you want to add to your board.
