Tight Ends

  1. Albert Okwuebegbunam, Jr., Missouri
  2. Grant Calcanterra, Jr., Stanford
  3. Colby Parkinson, Jr., Stanford
  4. Brycen Hopkins, Sr., Purdue
  5. Jared Pinkney, Sr., Vanderbilt

If you’re looking for a receiving tight end, Okwuebegbunam and Calcanterra are your top choices. Both have good size, athleticism, and can create mismatches all over the field as a receiver. However, they are not as polished as in-line blockers.

If you want a more well-rounded tight end, Parkinson, Hopkins, and Pinkney will suit your fancy more. All have good size, can still create mismatches and big plays as a receiver, but are at least solid blockers in the run game when called upon.
