Notes: Weaver is a very intriguing prospect at the next level with some real FBS upside due to his frame, catch radius and athletic abilities for his size. He is a strong route runner with excellent hands and checks all the boxes for a athlete his size. He is looking to be a late DFBS steal for a team and is another key name to note as we approach signing day.

Weaver had a breakout senior season for Mountain View and is going to be a very nice steal for a college team once he signs. He is a big bodied athlete with a hue catch radius, strong with the ball in his hands and mismatch nightmare on the outside. He could very well develop into a tight end with plus receiving skills and is a high upside kid that is just scratching the surface of his potential down the line. He has seen a uptick in his recruiting as well in recent weeks and picked up offers from Rocky Mountain and Minot State and would be a big time steal at the D2/NAIA level.

Weaver is one of the top receivers across Idaho as we head into the season and is a big framed athlete with a huge catch radius, strong hands when making contested catches and can stretch the field over the top and is a big time mismatch in the red-zone. He should fit nicely as a tight end due to his frame and length in college and will only continue to grow and develop as a blocker in the box.

Weaver is coming off a significant injury that cost him his entire junior year but the soon to be senior looks back in form during this 7 on 7 circuit. He is an elite high point pass catcher that run with long strides but is able to create separation down the field. He has extremely strong and natural hands that allow him to grab the football out of the air. His tracking ability is top notch and with him returning to form everyone should be on notice.

Weaver is a big and physical receiver that should grow into a tight end at the next level, and has the ideal length and frame for the position with the ability to continue packing on more weight through out his collegiate career. He has strong hands, can box out smaller defenders downfield and shows high-point abilities while doing a good job at covering ground with long strides and using his body at the POA. Still await his first offer, he is a no brainer next level guy that should be closing in on his first offer this off-season.

Weaver had a monster season as a sophomore where he was his teams leading receiver. His junior year hit a minor setback with a season ending injury so when it comes to break out starts look no further. The senior is a big time target that has excellent ball skills and tracking. He is a natural pass catcher that can really rip the football out of the air. He is a long strider and has the ability to win the 50/50 ball and should be one of the top players in the 6A ranks next season.

, he is a candidate that could turn into a true Y-tight end at the next level due to growth potential and upside at that position. Look for Weaver to once again put together a solid Junior season for Mountain View, and he should start drawing some serious college interest over the coming months.

Weaver is a big time target on the outside that could end up growing into a true Y/tight end as he progresses through his final two seasons for Mountain View. He provides a nice position versatility on the outside and has a huge catch radius with high-point abilities on 50/50 balls and is a long strider that gets off the line quickly and can cover a ton of ground and create separation in the open field. He has fluid hips and good change of direction abilities for his size while also showing strong hands in traffic and good body control when going up to make plays on the ball. His length, downfield speed and catch radius make him a very intriguing prospect to watch and see how he develops over the next couple of years.

Weaver is a big time mismatch nightmare on the outside with downfield long speed, can get off press coverage at the LOS and creates seperation at the POA. He displays strong hands in traffic and has impressive high-point abilities while boxing out smaller defenders and winning with physicality and strength at the catch point. Weaver also shows he can get tough yards after the catch while tough to bring down in the open field due to being physical with the ball in his hands and having contact balance, leg drive through contact and some short area wiggle. He should be a no brainer to collect FCS+ interest over the next couple off-seasons, and is a sure fire next level kid at either outside receiver or possibly even tight end, depending on how he progresses and packs on weight.

Weaver had a dominant sophomore campaign where he was not only the leading receiver for Mountain View in terms of yards but also touchdowns. Weaver finished his sophomore campaign with 606 yards and 10 touchdowns on the season. A big receiver standing already at 6’4” he plays the football in the air exceptionally well. He has the ability to track the football over his shoulder and then can go up to get the 50/50 ball. He has a great understanding of how to shield off defenders with his body and has better straight line speed than many think. He has natural hands that really catch the football with ease and is going to be a monster as a junior.
