— the big 6’6″ 240 lb tight end — is able to get behind the defense as often as he does:
He has no problem finding open space down the field and outrunning defenders when he sees grass in front of him. He’s shown great body control around the sideline and his secure hands make him a target his quarterback can truly trust when it matters most. He already received an offer from ASU back in April of 2023, which will only continue as he works through the rest of his high school career. With six total touchdowns so far this season, Williams is showing everyone why he’s our top-ranked 2026 tight end.
Casa Grande has a chance make some noise in the 5A playoffs. Currently 16th in the AIA rankings, they have a lot of firepower on offense that’s going to be hard for any defense to shut down.

is a combination of size and speed that can give defensive coordinators nightmares with what he can do running routes for Casa Grande’s offense. As the biggest tight end to make this list, he has no problem finding open space down the field and outrunning defenders when he sees grass in front of him. He’s shown great body control around the sideline and his secure hands make him a target his quarterback can truly trust when it matters most.

is a massive target for his quarterback down in Casa Grande. Being the big redzone target that he is, it’s no surprise that he was able to find the endzone eight times last season. What is surprising, however, is how shifty of a player Williams is at that size. Having that type of shiftiness and ability to make players miss is incredibly rare for someone with that large of a frame. Averaging over 13 yards per reception and 50 yards a game as a sophomore, both of those numbers could take a massive leap as Williams heads into his senior year.

Read EvaluationJordan Reyes | Prep Redzone Scout
Basketball player turned football player with rare size and athleticism at 6’6” 230 lbs. Possesses all the physical traits colleges look for in a TE with his combination of length, mobility, and ball skills. Great redzone and jump ball threat with his leaping and high point ability (can also dunk a basketball). Understands how to use his size/body to box out defenders and create a throwing lane while out competing defenders at the catch point. After the catch, he flashes deceptive speed with plus lateral agility to cut around defenders and find space. He runs hard and is strong at the POA making him a tough tackle for any high school level defender. A matchup nightmare for opposing defenses. Offered by Arizona State and Oregon thus far but will see his recruiting stock sky rocket this off season.

, brings an unmistakable basketball player’s grace and agility to the football field. Listed at 6’6″ 240lbs, his immense stature coupled with his agility is a sight to behold. Blessed with large hands, Williams is already an incredible contested catch tight end and with some work on softer hads, could be truly dominant in that area. Though his brute strength and size suggest he could be an unparalleled force in blocking, there’s room for him to be more engaged, especially when not directly in play. Once he has the ball, trying to tackle Williams is a daunting task for any defense. His natural dimensions and impressive vertical make him a go-to target in the redzone. While his presence in the redzone is undeniable, with another offseason to work on his blocking technique, he could control an entire game from the tight end position. Overall, Aveon’s inherent size and capability are jaw-dropping, hinting at the tremendous potential he holds as just a sophomore.
