H.S. Scouting Report
Evaluated 10/12/2018
Projection
4-7 Round Day 3Terrific height, length, and overall frame for a high-major tight end prospect. Long and lean with impressive build, though still possesses frame space to add bulk in college. Owns a large catch radius. Height and length provide high ceiling as a red-zone target. Good straight-line athlete who builds long speed. Seam-runner at tight end who can also split wide and stretch vertically. Experience lining up in multiple spots, including in-line, slot, and wideout. Willing and able blocker with high motor. Looks for work. Shows encouraging leverage consistency relative to height. Tons of potential as an in-line blocker. Flashes impressive drive-blocking ability thanks to consistent hand placement and leg drive. More of a long-strider than a burner. Can improve consistency as a hands catcher. Stiff through the hips and core. Could struggle getting open in tight quarters because of lack of close-quarters mobility. Raw as a route-runner and will round off routes. Must improve ball-tracking ability on deep routes. Does not high-point as consistently as a 6-foot-5 tight end should. Possesses a lot of potential and could develop into an NFL Draft pick.
