Reminds Us Of

Jordan Leggett New York Jets

Possesses good height and frame potential to add needed bulk as a tight end, especially in in-line alignments. Frame includes large catch radius. Shows encouraging dexterity in ball skills. Promising hands-catching ability. Owns a 6-2 mark in the high jump. Uses that in contested situations and maximizes catch radius with leaping ability. High ceiling as red-zone ball-winner. Not afraid to elevate and extend in traffic. Flashes good run-after-catch ability relative to size. Solid production as a junior for high-powered offense at Texas 5A level in the Dallas area. Can show more consistent explosion off the line. Overall suddenness can improve, particularly in route-running snap. Can improve ability to consistently leverage DB's into breaks. Needs more bulk to fulfill in-line duties, particularly in the run game. Talented tight end prospect with high ceiling moving forward. Projects to Power Five level with long-term NFL Draft potential.
