He measured with extraordinarily large hands at 11 inches and a wingspan of 78 inches, and then Longstreet came out and showed he was one of the best ball throwers, too. Etiwanda, California, standout Dermaricus Davis was 9.4 hands and a massive 80.5 wingspan, and 2026 QB Troy Huhn was 9.4 hands and a wingspan of 79.

There were plenty of awesome running backs at Sunday’s camp, but one of them measured exactly what NFL starters have done over the past 10 years — and that’s no big surprise.

NFL starting tight ends over the past decade have averaged 9.8-inch hands and 79.6-inch wingspans. A tight end in Los Angeles came close to or exceeded those metrics. It was the new Los Alamitos, California, four star David Mitchell, who recently transferred from Allen, Texas. Mitchell looks like a million bucks and is physically full, while his hands are slightly small at 9.44 inches, his wingspan exceeds that of NFL debutants at 83 inches.

NFL offensive linemen over the past 10 years have averaged 10-inch hands and an 82.4-inch wingspan.

Los Angeles Loyola Offensive Guard Westbrooks Field and Mission Hills (California) and Alemany’s Maki Stewart both had 10.4 hands and a wingspan of 82 inches. Star OL 2026 Keenyi Pepe (10.2 hands, 83 wingspan), Lehi, Utah, rookie Jensen Somerville (10.2 hands, 83 wingspan) and Chatsworth (California) Sierra Canyon’s Ashdon Wnetrzak (10.2 hands, 84.5 wingspan) were the main standouts.

Downey (California) St. Pius X-St. Matthias Academy standout Kevin Johnson is a truly intriguing prospect because while he’s still raw and needs to refine his moves as an edge rusher, he has the measurable measurements to be special with 9.84-inch hands and a wingspan 82 inches.

The other rookie who fits the pattern is El Cajon (Calif.) Granite Hills’ Damarion Whitewho recently emerged with eight bids and has the same hand size as Johnson with an 81 wingspan.

St. John Bosco’s Kyngstonn Viliamu-Asa is only reinforced by these statistics.

The most interesting is Mission Viejo, California, four stars Dijon Lee Jr., who stood 9.44 hands tall and had a wingspan of 78 inches, which would currently put him in the top tier of NFL starters. There’s no doubt that Lee has length, but he’s also incredibly talented at that position and has been shutting down receivers all day.
