Two years ago they were talking about him being a possible early entry into the draft. He was one of the most promising tight ends in the country with his size and speed. What is his draft status now. Has the new offense, running the ball first, hurt his productivity. It seems that he has become an after thought.

he's a tweener. possibly H-back if he's big enough

he's short for a premier TE and i don't think he'll be bulky enough to make up for it

He'll be really lucky to be drafted, short of running a 4.4x at the combine. UDFA IMO

"they" were wrong....the kid has decent speed, decent size and ok hands but really never showed elite skills. he doesn't impress me as one who will, consistantly, make the tough catch. the fact that our ground game has evolved into the major strength that it is has hurt all the receivers. who would you look for first, randall or peterson....obj or peterson....shep or peterson....clement or peterson? hopefully he gets drafted in a later round and gets with a team that can help him continue his development.

I wish he could have seen more playing time, natural ability. Benefited from Lee in the line up, I would like to see him at the next level.
