Nick Townsend Scouting Summary
Charles Power
02/06/25

Jumbo athlete with two-way production and great speed. Projects as a move tight end at the next level. Measured in at 6-foot-3, 220 pounds before his senior season. Has plus length with 33-inch arms to go with 10-inch hands. Has fantastic straight-line speed for his size, running two sub-11.0 second times in the 100 meters as a junior. Lined up at linebacker, as a detached tight end, and as a wildcat quarterback for his high school team. Primarily an athletic projection as a tight end. Does a lot of his damage after the catch, taking quick passes and turning upfield. Looks to have solid ball skills, but doesn’t have many downfield targets on film. Had 25 catches for 272 yards and four touchdowns as a senior. Also scored 5 rushing touchdowns and had 10 tackles for loss on defense. Younger for the cycle, turning 18 in May of his senior year of high school. Will need to fully adapt to playing tight end, but has the size and athleticism to create a mismatch in the passing game with skill development. Fits the prototype that we see from move tight ends who are NFL Draft picks.
