TE Prospects: What Coaches Look for on Junior Day Visits
Junior day visits are a crucial part of the recruiting process for top TE prospects at AA programs like Monroe Woodbury Crusaders. Coaches look for players who can excel in a variety of situations, from blocking to pass-catching. To stand out, focus on showcasing your ability to seal the edge on a tight end screen. Coaches want to see you create a seam for the running back, allowing him to gain at least 2-3 yards after contact. This requires a combination of strength, agility and footwork. During drills, emphasize quick footwork and the ability to get your hands inside the defender's. Additionally, be prepared to discuss your film, highlighting your best blocks and receptions. This will give coaches a better understanding of your skills and potential fit within their program.
