Measured in at 6’4”, 253 lbs

Ran a 4.66 and a 36.5 vertical

That’s impressive numbers. Should we think about him if we can get him in the late rounds?

If he’s there after the 4th I’d be surprised

I don’t know if the Saints go after him, but I always wonder why we didn’t get him the ball more.

Yeh he went from likely undrafted to a decently high pick

I thought he would be in the 4.8 range and in the 20s for his vertical. Guess I’m racist

But honestly he has looked more athletic and smooth than Irv smith....

He had some good games in his career. Without looking at numbers I would have to think he was LSUs most productive TE since Richard Dickson.

There was actually some mid-round buzz on him after the senior bowl.

Off measurables we should consider it

However his production gives me some pause. We need to honestly further investigate through personal workouts.

Where did he play his college ball?

What is that schools history over the last 29 or so years regarding TEs?

Again, it’s hard to judge a TE from LSU’s production. They are not utilized

I know he was a great college TE, but is he better than any of those guys on our roster?

The kid is a very, very good blocking TE with combine performance that has to move him up. He can catch the ball ..... if we ever threw it to him. He a couple of stad out games last year & never saw the ball in others.

Of he is there in the 4th, which I doubt, he has to be considered.

Travis Kelce would get 10 catches a season playing for LSU. Jimmy Graham never would've gotten on the field cause he doesn't block.

Not worried about his blocking that's for sure.

Why would you let that influence you. Ensminger doesn't know or has yet to show he knows how to use a Tight End.

George Kittle caught 48 balls in 25 career college games. He just set the NFL record for receiving yards by a TE

Guys like Fant and Moreau have the combine numbers but not on the field numbers. Some team will get value on those guys
