Strong DL who uses his hands well. Def could see him as a 275 lb DT in a couple years. Phelps has to be happy.
Good. Use all remaining scholarships on defense. All of them.
Prediction: Bianca will be whining about Leach destroying this guy’s career before he gets to campus.
Cmon Biggs, if hes an nfl pro bowl tight end, why isn't he a 5 star and all the top college teams that utilize a TE like Bama and Ohio State recruiting him as a TE ?
Geez
Watch the film. He is crushing kids at TE.
Dont forget that last year a kid made a fake twitter post about being offered by Alabama. He immediately was a 4 star prospect. The kid didnt exist. So no, I dont put a lot of faith in recruiting rankings or talent evaluators.
What I do know is that guys that can truck people blocking at the TE position are rare. And this kid does just that. Watch his film.
The bodies look a little different but when the ball is snapped I see a lot of Herc.
The first step, the leans, the angles, the leverage, the deeks, the hands, the spring to close
watch the play at 7:10
Great job coaches

Either way, if a kid has NFL potential as a tight end, pretty sure he will be an upgrade on the D-line with this team.
Question is...does he want to be a DE or TE?? Can't force these situations. Where's the heart?
Agree. Watching him play though, he is Pete Metzalars. Blocks, catches, prob play special teams. 6’4” 230 turns into 255. Runs well. He has a lot of tools that the NFL loves in TEs.
If it were me, he plays both ways. Why would I not use the talents that he brings? Is my football team so loaded with talent at 1-4 in league play right now that I can leave talent on the sideline???
Call this kid up and tell him you need him to play both ways.
Hes got 3 receptions for 83 yards total on the year.
Looks like a very good defensive lineman.

Would be an interesting concept, especially considering Leach has hardly ever utilized a TE. Have some special short yardage/2 point packages, bring him in as an extra blocker knowing a play action can be used and he can catch. I wouldn’t be a huge fan of playing guys both ways, especially DLinemen which might be the most physically demanding position on the field, but if there are only 3-5 times a game their skill set could make a difference during crucial down/distance...why not.
If he doesnt crack the two deep on the DL, play him all you want on offense.
If youve gotta have a first down, put him in there.
The offense needs wrinkles. Give the defense something they didnt prepare for. Make them think.
