Notre Dame football’s newest addition to the 2022 class is West Des Moines (Iowa) Valley tight end Eli Raridon, a 6-6, 220-pound legacy prospect.
Here is a breakdown of what the new addition means for the Fighting Irish.
1. I absolutely love this get for Notre Dame and believe we’ll see Raridon catching touchdown passes in the NFL down the line. He has that type of potential. His size is ideal as a pass-catching tight end with his 6-6, 220-pound, lengthy frame as just a high school junior, but he’s more than a willing blocker and has very strong bloodlines as well. He looks great on tape, too, and consistently flashes with his soft hands, impressive ball skills and above-average speed. He’s more of a pass-catching tight end than blocker, but again, his technique when engaging in the run game looks solid.
