Davon Mitchell's size, build, athleticism and favorable catch radius as an in-line tight end reminds us of Dwayne Allen. 

Filled out, sure handed tight end with a wide catch radius. Measured in at a shade under 6-foot-3, 250 pounds prior to his senior season. Has long arms relative to the position. Played at powerhouse Allen High School in 2022 before reclassifying to from the 2024 to 2025 cycle and transferring to Los Alamitos High in California. Was productive as a junior, catching 33 passes for 731 yards and 9 touchdowns. Has strong hands. Uses his length to extend for grabs. Adjusts to poorly thrown balls. Capable of locating the football over his shoulder and coming down with contested catches. At his most effective when working on vertical routes and down the seam. Runs fairly well for his size. Shows some flashes as a blocker. Primarily has lined up in the slot, but has the look of an in-line tight end who can work up the seam and off of play action. Shorter than most top tight end prospects and is closer to his ultimate size than most of his highly-touted peers. Can improve his short area quickness and ability after the catch. Was initially older for the class as a 2025 prospect, is the correct age for a 2024 prospect. 

Davon Mitchell Scouting Summary

National Recruiting Analyst

Class of 2025 four-star tight end Davon Mitchell had only one reception the game against Guyer and after some more in-person observations from pre-game warmups, there’s a ton of intrigue when it comes to this sophomore. The 6-foot-4, 225-pound Mitchell was easily making one-handed grabs along the sideline during pre-game activities. He is not only a physically imposing presence with or without the pads on, but provides a massive target for his quarterback. Mitchell has natural hands and demonstrated high-end hand-eye coordination with his second-half reception, reeling in a ball in traffic over the middle of the field that turned into a 30-yard play that pinned Allen inside the 10-yard line. Even in limited action, Mitchell teased with his upside. He’s a physically gifted pass-catcher that’s used primarily to overpower defenders as a blocker. There’s no doubting that he also possesses the traits to be an outstanding TE1 in the same mold as Arik Gilbert or Thomas Fidone.

TE Davon Mitchell provides a taste in limited action vs. Guyer
