Player rankings: Top QBs | Top RBs | Top WRs | Top DBs | Top LBs | Top OL | Top DL | Top athletes
5. Mason West, senior, La Habra
At 6-5, 240, the Washington commit has the size to block line a lineman and great hands at the same time. Caught 22 passes for 375 yards and five TDs last season.
4. Michael Ambagtsheer, senior, St. Augustine
Ambagtsheer can do it all for St. Augustine. He excels at both blocking and receiving (473 yards last season), and also is a great defensive end. He's received 18 college offers and Utah is the favorite to land him.
3. Jack Yary, senior, Murrieta Valley
USC-commit Yary is probably the best blocker on this list. At 6-foot-6 and 255 pounds, there's a solid chance he will play some offensive line in college. He's a great receiving threat at TE. Yary registered 386 receiving yards and six touchdowns in only eight games last season.
2. Jake Overman - Servite
Overman just landed a scholarship offer from Washington. He's a captain at Servite and one of the Friars' main pass-catchers.
1. Mark Redman, senior, Corona del Mar
Arguably a top-10 tight end in the country, Mark Redman has both the size and skills to leave scouts salivating. At 6-foot-6 and 250 pounds, he has excellent hands and route-running ability.
Last season he racked up 589 receiving yards and nine touchdowns. He's committed to Washington along with his star quarterback, Ethan Garbers. This year, Redman already has four touchdowns and 161 receiving yards through three games.
