2028 Spring Stock Risers: Offense

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">In-depth analysis of the 2028 offensive prospects that are rising up rankings and recruiting boards this spring. </h2>    <p class="text-gray-700">Tschen has seen a rapid increase in recruitment this month pulling in his first three D1 offers from Miami (OH), Northern Arizona, and Montana State. 5'11” 185 lbs. he flashes good all around game speed, demonstrating a hard drive phase off the ball while maintaining speed throughout the route to run by coverage vertically. He's an advanced route runner that shows good timing when attacking DB's leverage to create separation. He's deceptive being able to set up his routes and force an early transition to manipulate hip movement. Good variety of quick release moves at the LOS and against off coverage to avoid contact, he uses his hands well and works laterally efficiently. Strong hands with good tracking and adjustment ability with the ball in the air. Expect increased production as he continues through his career and for his recruitment to sustain this upward trajectory.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/kaitschen19/status/1886469305057120311 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">Slaughter is a pure athlete with an outstanding physical profile. 6'4” 180 lbs. with an 80 inch wingspan, high jump PR of 6'6”, and vertical of 33.5. That leaping ability in combination with his length gives him great high point skills downfield and in the redzone. Understands how to create space and use size to his advantage at the catch point by being physical and boxing out defenders. Shows good top end speed as a route runner, after the catch, and in the return game being able to separate from defenders in space. Earned his first offer from San Diego State recently and has great upside to land many more D1 programs as he showcases his ability.</p>     <p class="text-gray-700">Brown's 2025 season was cut short due to transfer rules but flashed his all around receiving skillset when he was available. Outstanding athlete at 5'11” 185 lbs. that combines his speed, suddenness, and ball skills to attack all areas of the field out of the slot. He's a sharp route runner that cleanly gets in/out of his breaks and bursts away from coverage to separate. Flashes quick twitch movement skills with the ability to flash fast hands pulling in difficult receptions at the short/intermediate levels in traffic. Good explosiveness after the catch showing he can run away from defenders in space or break tackles to pick up yards after contact. First offered by UTEP and will see increased recruiting attention as he gains experience.</p>   <figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-x wp-block-embed-x"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper"> https://twitter.com/hajjbrown22/status/1986214983039082616 </div></figure>     <p class="text-gray-700">Pilarcek flashed in his limited action as a sophomore and seeing a rise in recruitment after earning his initial D1 offer from Northern Arizona. 6'3” 200 lbs. he's got a well-built frame with natural arm strength and athleticism. That accelerated release and arm strength allows him to throw off different platforms without losing velocity. Demonstrates the ability to mix up speeds and throw a catchable ball, he can throw vertically with touch/trajectory or drive the ball with zip into a tight window at the short/intermediate levels. Works quickly through his reads processing coverage to allow routes to develop and find an open throwing lane. Running ability isn't the focal point of his game but runs well and is a threat as a ball carrier when necessary. Transferred to Desert Mountain for his junior year and will be one to watch when he gets his opportunity.</p>    <p><strong>Other Stock Risers:</strong></p>   <p><strong>[player_tooltip player_id='1707437' first='Ezra' last='Benjamin'], ATH, Brophy</strong> - <strong>First offer from Idaho</strong></p>   <p><strong>Hayden Bajet, ATH, McClintock</strong> - <strong>First offer from Auburn</strong></p>   <p></p>
