<!-- wp:paragraph --> <p>These five tight ends in the 2027 class are worth keeping tabs on.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["416494"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69d4648f6dd52"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='416494' first='Grant' last='Haviland'] is one of the more intriguing players in the country, as he has been viewed as a long-term target for some schools, and he will have the chance to go to almost any college that has offered him, as he remains near the top of the board for the majority of these schools. Haviland has all the traits one could want, and will be one of the better-balanced tight ends this season, as he is going to be a primary target for [player_tooltip player_id='409921' first='Derrick' last='Baker'] at Milton.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2116754"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69d4648f6de08"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2116754' first='Max' last='Patterson'] is way down the list, but is still the no. 3 tight end in the state. He has the chance to prove that he is a top-100 player in the state of Georgia, as he is by far one of the better freak athletes on this list. I believe Patterson is going to be a star both this season and at the next level. He is one that I believe fans should keep tabs on, as he makes a push to crack the top-100, as he is just barely outside of the cut.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["886274"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69d4648f6de98"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='886274' first='Graham' last='Elzey'] is barely ranked on the inside of the top 250, and in the top-10 rankings, which makes things a bit intriguing. He is entering what could be the biggest season of his high school career, and he will have the chance to dominate when it comes to his vertical ability. Elzey is gifted and will have the chance to get behind some defensive backs this season. Keep tabs on him, because I truly believe he will find himself climbing the rankings during this next season, as he looks to prove his worth yet again. Elzey is one I am watching closely.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["2120868"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69d4648f6df0f"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='2120868' first='Ayden' last='Ashlock'] has been one of the fastest rising tight ends this offseason, but even despite his huge jump, the talented prospect has yet to find his way into the rankings. I am almost certain that this will change soon, as he is one of the better tight ends in the state. He will be playing alongside the state's leading passer, [player_tooltip player_id='969646' first='Caine' last='Woods'], and will be one of the players who could make the biggest strides in the 2026 season. Make sure you are keeping tabs on him, as he will soon find himself at a college following what is likely to be an electric season.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block --> <!-- wp:acf/evaluation-block {"name":"acf/evaluation-block","data":{"player_evaluations_0_player":["1214546"],"_player_evaluations_0_player":"field_62ab9d62ecf2c","player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"","_player_evaluations_0_override_profile_image":"override-player-profile-image","player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"","_player_evaluations_0_not_in_database":"field_62aba48cecf2d","player_evaluations":1,"_player_evaluations":"field_62aba7547dc44"},"mode":"preview","alignText":"left","anchor":"acf-block-69d4648f6df63"} --> <!-- wp:paragraph {"placeholder":"Add evaluation here...","className":"text-gray-700"} --> <p class="text-gray-700">[player_tooltip player_id='1214546' first='Olafemi' last='Hunter'] has all the talent one could want when it comes to a raw talent standpoint at the tight end position. He is a growing frame and is one of the key contributors to this Grayson offense. He will have the chance to do very well in this next season, and if he lives up to the hype, it is worth noting that he could find himself at a college. Hunter will be a key part to any success that this team has, and will be worth keeping tabs on, as he looks to prove he is underrated at 192 and No. 9.</p> <!-- /wp:paragraph --> <!-- /wp:acf/evaluation-block -->
