was the first name that came to mind for me. The St. John’s Prep Signal Caller, displayed an impressive 6’5″ 190-Pound frame, which made him stand out in each drill. After watching his reps, this past weekend, Vargas had the prettiest release of any QB, leading him to good balls and a solid performance. The New England QB, has a bright future.

Lastly is one of the top prospects in the entire North East. St. John’s Prep QB Christopher Vargas, came out and showed out this past weekend in NJ. I believe Vargas will be a finalist next year, and after watching him on Saturday, I believe it more. The 6’5″ 190-Pound QB, displayed elite mechanics and good footwork through out the afternoon, and did well on throws outside the pocket. His arm strength was evident, and he is easily a QB you should watch as he headlines the 2028 Class in New England.

‘ most recent game film, it is clear why he sits atop the Class of 2028 rankings as the top overall prospect and top quarterback in New England. Vargas already displays a complete, high-level skill set at the quarterback position, combining elite arm talent, functional mobility, and advanced decision-making well beyond his age.
Vargas operates the pocket with poise and maturity, showing clean footwork, strong base mechanics, and excellent pocket presence. He remains calm under pressure, keeps his eyes downfield, and consistently delivers the football with velocity and accuracy. His arm strength is a defining trait, allowing him to drive the ball to all levels of the field and fit throws into tight windows.
In addition to his passing ability, Vargas is a legitimate playmaker with his legs. He is mobile, decisive when extending plays, and comfortable throwing on the move without sacrificing accuracy. His ability to create outside structure adds another layer of stress for defenses and elevates the overall efficiency of the offense.
With multiple Power Four offers already in hand, he continues to separate himself as the premier quarterback in his class. His film reflects a quarterback who checks every box physically, mentally, and competitively.
Projection: Power Four starting quarterback with national upside
