The dividing line between the good and average tight end prospects. I like his size, I like his speed -- he eats up cushions quickly on vertical routes -- and he's an adequate blocker in space.

That said, his hands are average, and should be better considering he was used as a slot receiver. He's not an elusive ball-carrier, as his extra yardage has to come by running through tackles. And he was asked to do almost nothing in-line, which is disappointing for his size.

Overall, he lacks the polish or athleticism to put him among the best prospects at his position. Fourth rounder.
