Expert Analysis
Alan Popadines | Prep Redzone Scout
Florida tight end Nicky Arcaro is a big kid with verified size. Saw him last summer and thought he was an offensive tackle, until I saw him burn defenses up the seem. Admittedly more of a basketball player right now, he comes with agile feet and soft hands. Easily of the top blocking tight ends I’ve seen in this class thus far. Plays with a mean streak, too. Not out of the realm of possibility that he becomes a stud offensive tackle at some point in his football career.

– Really impressive prospect that will be in the eighth-grade this upcoming school year and already stands every bit of the 6-foot-4 and 220 pounds he’s listed at, on paper
– In talking with the The Sunshine State native and his father, he actually spends more time playing basketball at this point than he does football–but the kid is a nasty football tight end/defensive end
– Maybe it’s the physical appearance and Italian bloodlines, but Arcaro reminds me a lot of 11-year NFL vet Anthony Fasano. Having played against Fasano in high school before he went on to Notre Dame, the similarities are striking
– From what I saw last week, I’d be inviting him to a college camp immediately. Played to the whistle and beyond, with a mean attitude. If he can pick up his straight line speed, he’s a a future FBS player at this point
