Lol he is miles ahead of Graham as a blocker as I type. Blocking boils down to mentality and technique as much as talent. I don't have the PFF sheet in front of me but id be willing to bet he had a positive run blocking grade. The program will spit guys out now if they don't have the right mentality. He's been at football boot camp for three years.
I don't see Howard ever becoming the receiving threat that Graham was in his prime. He's just not a box out and grab the rebound type of player, for that reason I'm not sure I'd draft him very high. I don't think a tight end is worth an early pick unless you expect 8-10 touchdowns a year out of him, and I don't see that from Howard. Great measurables and a well rounded player, just not a box out and high point type that his measurables indicate.
