Has a robust, ten-minute-long tape showcasing what we thought we’d see from a prospect with a ton of pre-season hype surrounding his name. Varsity player, starts off his tape releasing from an in-line alignment, navigates through the linebacking core, runs a corner route for a touchdown. Very next rep, Hatton is seen bull-rushing a tackle deep into the pocket, extending and shedding to close on a QB for a sack. This is extensive experience and production for a young man who will fly up our ranks. Seen stalk-blocking while being split out wide and moving kids way off the ball. Has a couple of awesome pancakes while impact blocking as a backside TE. Love how creative WA is with this kid, not much is off-limits, which speaks to how quickly Hatton has earned trust out of his coaches. This is some of the better tape I’ve plugged into out of any 2027 in the state. Is an only-a-matter-of-time type prospect.

Hatton, who also impressed as a tight end on the offensive side of the ball, was picked to compete in the best on best competition at the end of the camp as a defensive lineman. The 6-foot-3, 215 pounder was really good as a defensive end who battled with Cooper Ebeling Cooper Ebeling 6'5" | 300 lbs | OL/DL The Hun School | 2028 NJ and Maxwell Hiller Maxwell Hiller 6'6" | 305 lbs | OL Coatesville | 2027 State PA all camp long. He had a nice first step up field off the snap and when he was able to get extension with his long arms, he did well in the rep.
