Two-year starter that leaves school after catching 13/141/10.8/1 as a junior and 18/223/12.4/5 the prior season. Played extensively as a red shirt freshman in 1999.
Athletic tight end still rough around the edges. Breaks down well, strong at the point of attack and effective blocking on the second level. Nice vertical leap and extends to snare the high throw out of the air. Makes the acrobatic reception, grabs the ball in a crowd and runs well after the catch. Lacks consistency and intensity; fundamentally lazy, does a lot of unnecessary body catching while not working hard to finish his blocks. Boom or bust type prospect; has the physical tools to be a big time player but must decide to implement them on an every down basis if he is to realize his potential. Late Third Round.
