6'7" 215.  Needs to add some weight.

He sure as hell had better**. But then, he's only a kid (16,17?).  And obviously his hands, vertical (aided by his height),
moves and maybe even speed were really eye-openers, to look at his offer-list.


**--unless Al/Brady plan on moving him more outside, which it wouldn't seem likely.

The size of our TE's and Wr's in the coming years is going to be ridiculous

Also good to see we're bringing in (and already have) taller, strong-armed QBs (6-3,6-4, etc.)who can more easily see these [defensive] matchup nightmares and hit them more regularly...to say nothing of not having passes knocked down at the LOS as easily.

6'7????

That's freakish.

And if Wilton Speight starts at QB for us one day, there will be a new definition for the basketball phrase "alley-oop pass"...
a 6-6 QB throwing to a 6-7 TE ??? Insane!!!!

The problem with that height is they tend not to be good blockers, and can get pushed around. At 6'7" he could be a good blocker at 280 lbs+. And in that case, he would be an OL.

Hopefully these guys can block or they wont be on the field for long.

I would have to go back and find the post but when he committed a few guys on here questioned him because he was only a 3* and they knew UM was short on scholarships to offer so they were wondering why we didn't take someone rated higher. but like I said a while ago, this was a lock to happen so I can't take too much credit for calling it early.
