<p>Williams is the clear top tight end in the class. He has elite size at 6'5" 210 pounds. Wide catch radius which he shows on a regular basis. Can high point passes in the end zone. So difficult to bring down with the ball in his hands with his combination of speed and power. Lines up mostly wide, but when in-line he gets off the line with ease and is a monster over the middle. Seam routes and finds the weakness in the defense over the middle. Snatches the ball with his hands and makes contested catches look easy. Technically sound player that is an excellent route runner and solid blocker.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1518233' first='Austin' last='Coles'] (Barrington)</strong></p>

<p>During Coles sophomore season he racked up 43 catches for 896 yards and 6 scores. Nearly 100 yards a game on the year. He is the definition of a flex TE with his huge frame and big catch radius. Excels on comeback routes where he regularly would make the catch then explode past the defense for scores. Also a major factor downfield with his ability to high point and win 50/50 balls. Adjusts well to the ball downfield. Plays with physicality and snatches the ball out of the air. Power forward body type that knows how to use his strengths to his advantage.</p>

<p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1625326' first='Warren' last='Schweitzer'] (Rochelle)</strong></p>
<!-- /wp:paragraph -->
<!-- wp:paragraph -->
<p>One of the more hidden gems of the tight end class is this 6'7" 220 pound dual sport star. He is a ranked basketball player that might have a brighter future in football. Elite size and high points the ball in the air downfield. Vertical threat that runs very well for his size lined up out wide. Redzone threat with his size and positioning. Slips into the secondary and overall has good hands.</p>
