Draft Prospect Outlook:
Good size, sturdy tight end who looks like a basketball small forward on the football field. Lumbering movements and speed, but impressive balance, surprising make-you-miss ability and reliable hands-catcher. Won't be a seam threat in the NFL due to lack of separation skills but has value as No. 2 tight end due to his size, athleticism, and hands.
