Zaire continued to impress in the skills players session. He has a quick release, fast feet, and can run every route. He also has a good release at the LOS, and can create separation quickly. In competition, Zaire made some tough catches, and was a certain standout. Keep an eye out for this Milton Academy transfer this summer.

2023 Film Review: Zahir is a sharp route runner with good burst off the line. He does a good job of finding holes in coverage and coming back to the ball when plays breaks down. He can make catches in traffic or on the boundary; and gets upfield quickly in the screen game. Zahir is also a good blocker in the run game, and uses a good burst to make plays from the backfield as well. He shows good speed and is a player to watch this summer.

Formerly a 2026 at Lynnfield HS in Lynnfield, Massachusetts, has now re-classed to 2027 while enrolled at Milton Academy. A watchlist 2026 dating back to last Fall, we’ll see if he has a shot at making our 2027 rankings some time in the foreseeable future. Tape quickly showcases Mitchell’s calling card, his ability to stretch the field vertically. A deep threat with burners, posts, and nines are likely in his future at Milton Academy, a similar offensive role would make sense. Not necessarily a one-trick pony though, you can get creative with his skill set. Pre-snap motion, misdirection sets, screen game, slot work, Mitchell could explode in terms of production.
