Baron Naone

Two-way player who might be just as good on the defensive line. Plays as an edge but has the frame to slide inside and play tackle. Naturally big kid with a lot of growth potential. Physically strong at the point, whether he’s blocking inline or rushing off the edge. Shows the ability as a blocker to engage, stay on his feet and drive his man down the field. Plays in a run heavy offense so not a lot of opportunities as a pass catcher but has shown in 7v7 he’s a natural pass catcher with strong hands and a smooth route runner. Maybe not the downfield threat of some other TEs in the class, but a solid possession guy who can keep chains moving. As he continues to improve athletically and improve his speed and burst, he'll take his game to another level. Highly competitive and a really strong off field work ethic should ensure he'll be an impact player at the next level.
