John Papas founded the NE Elite Football Clinic over 25 years ago and has built it into one of the largest and most successful football clinics in the country. The clinic was held this year at Tufts University on June 27 and 28, 2024. In this report, I will preview several skilled athletes who caught my attention during the camp on day 1.
HEIGHT 6'3"
WEIGHT 220
POS TE
CLASS 2026
State: New England
School: Ridgefield High School Ct.
I caught a glimpse of Dylan Bean Crooker Dylan Bean Crooker 6'3" | 220 lbs | TE Ridgefield High School Ct. | 2026 New E during the technique and drill period. I observed him go up for a ball toward the sideline. He used his great balance and made a back-shoulder catch at the highest point while twisting his way to land cleanly inside the sideline. It was an athletic move that definitely caught other coaches’ eyes in attendance. A check to his HUDL Film profile displays no film on this young gifted prospect. I’ll be looking for his 2024 fall season highlight film after week 3 to review and consider for rankings. Very good athletic coordination was displayed. My eye test gave him a 6’3″-6’4″ in height with a solid frame to work with and develop.

HEIGHT 6'5"
WEIGHT 195
POS WR

Wore Number “Navy 125” during camp. His performance stood out amongst the WR group that performed at the camp. Has a solid frame with good length. Has very good range and can complete the back shoulder catch with good balance and body control.

BB&N football Captain | C/O 26 | ATH | 6’1 220lbs | skelley@bbns.org | HC: @Coach_Willey_FB
Wore Number “Black 498” during camp. His performance stood out amongst the LB group that performed at the camp. He locked down all Tight-end’s that he competed against during 1 on 1’s. He is strong at the point of attack. He makes great use of their hands when pressing. He also showed his versatility by taking reps at the WR slot position. He is a Div 1 prospect who will have opportunities come his way by this time next season.
Getting in some slot work at @EliteFBClinics. Great camp https://t.co/LB2pfiI8g8

Wore Number “yellow 797” during camp. His performance stood out within the class of 2026 QB’s in the group that performed at the camp. Coming off a recent verbal offer from Lehigh University, he had a great day. He is known for throwing hard and being accurate and that is what he did. He is another D1 prospect that will have many opportunities by this time next year.
Had a great time competing at the @EliteFBClinics the past 2 days!@CoachMFoley @BrooksFb pic.twitter.com/f2lBi3GblS

He has good vision, instincts and, solid hands with the quickness to make defenders miss. He is athletic, quicker than fast, and has good game speed that can translate to a college level.

Wore Number “Black 487 ” during camp. His performance stood out within the class of 2026 QBs in the group that performed at the camp. He has very good mechanics and was throwing with good velocity on the ball. He has an outstanding individual attribute in his arm strength. He is likely to be the starter this season and once he gets some film under his belt, he should see additional college interest take off.

Wore Number “Blue 284” during camp. His performance stood out within the WR group that performed at the camp. His jab step cuts with a great burst and crisp routes were all on display. He also won the WR gauntlet challenge. Many college coaches will judge him by his height, but the programs that choose to look past that will get a baller who is a threat anytime he possesses the ball to take it to the house.
Awesome 2 days competing & meeting w/ coaches @EliteFBClinics camp. Took 1st place in the WR gauntlet challenge. Thanks @coachpapas1 for the Coveted black shirt! @CoachKingman pic.twitter.com/L0UiTGET6Y
