One of the top receivers in northern NJ this fall, Dante Benvenuti Dante Benvenuti 6'2" | 205 lbs | ATH Passaic Valley | 2026 State NJ stood out with his impressive ability to make the most out of every pass thrown his way in 2024. A tall, big bodied target, Dante shined in every aspect of the game for Passaic Valley. Rangy with his dimensions (6’2″), Dante showed off his strong hands and longer arms to outcompete defenders for the ball and reel it in at it’s highest point. I was really impressed with Dante’s route running skills, as he was able to change speeds and accelerate out of no where to leave DBs trailing behind him. Once he brought the ball in, Dante kicked it to another gear and out ran the defenders with track speed and long strides. To go with all of this, Dante ran the ball extremely hard once it was within his grasp, breaking through arm tackles with a strong leg drive and determined running style. Bringing in 31 catches for 679 yards and 6 touchdowns, there is a lot to look forward to in Dante’s play on the field.
