SI All-American Candidate Weston Wolff Highlights and Evaluation

Weston Wolff is a tight end prospect from Venice High School in Venice, Fla. Wolff is an SI All-American candidate.

Prospect: Weston Wolff
Status: SI All-American candidate
Vitals: 6-foot-4, 210 pounds
Position: Tight End
School: Venice (Fla.) 
Committed to: Maryland
Projected Position: Tight End

Frame: Wolff is tall, yet lean for a tight end but has the frame to add more muscle in the upper and lower half. 

Athleticism: Wolff is a good athlete, playing wide receiver in high school for a good team in Florida. Speed and quickness to get open on quality corners with relative power off the line of scrimmage.

Instincts: He feels coverage well, knowing when to settle in zone, when to make his breaks in a route, knowing where the sidelines and first down markers are, and how to position himself for a jump ball. 

Polish: As a receiver, Wolff shows above average routes, especially for a tight end. However, he lines up almost exclusively out wide. Playing in-line and blocking will be skills college coaches will build with him. 

Bottom Line: Wolff is a dangerous receiving threat. He runs good routes, has good speed, has very good hands, and a large catch radius. He is a leaper that positions his body well to win jump balls, and he has done this against excellent competition. However, the blocking portion of being a tight end will be new to him at the next level. Wolff is a quality player that will make an impact, but how much he is asked to block will determine how quickly he sees the field.
