🌍 Future Outlook:

Much of the rise for Hutchinson took place in the off-season where he put himself on the map as a potential college tight end and he didn’t do anything to hurt his stock throughout the Fall season. The Big Red had an up and down season that didn’t showcase Hutchinson too much but what he did show was upside as a run blocker. This guy is a physical competitor that stays balanced and gets low with his blocking while being able to do so in space. Hutchinson has upside as a college pass catcher too that has yet to really show how good he can be in this area. I know several college programs are looking at this Nashville product, so it will be interesting to see where he signs and how he develops.

Rounding out the Top Ten is this hidden gem that is still developing but shows excellent upside for the college game. Hutchinson brings good size to the field (6’4 220) as well as some nice athletic traits that I feel can be developed further into a possible starting college tight end. The first thing I like about the Big Red big man is his technique and willingness to block. Hutchinson has no problem sticking his nose into the mesh and getting physical with defenders. He can also line up the slot if called upon and stretch the middle of the field due to his athleticism and developing speed. Hutchinson has put in a lot of work this off-season to develop his skill set and I think it will pay off this Summer in camps and this Fall where this Big Red tight end could see college offers finally come his way.
