Dallas Goedert
Big, fast freak with prototype catch
ability and radius
gets the ball
highpoint king
could dominate slot and actually
line up on outside
took an endaround 20 yards
guy likes the endzone
natural huge hands
lacks burner speed but has functional speed
our grade: 1st rd
projected: 2nd rd
pro comp: Rob Gronkowski/Jmmy Graham
Jaylen Samuels
easy fan favorite freak swiss army knife
was running back in college who avg
1000 yd and 16 TDs year, total 47 TDs
will convert from big RB who could catch
to tight end, guess hell be an old HBack type
the easy comp is Marcel Reese but Samuels ceiling is very high
he’d be perfect as a Saint. Him and Kamara
in same backfield is a dream
versatility make him
prime candidate for special teams contribution
one of only guys that can throw, catch, run
and return a td. jack of all trades
our grade: late 2nd
projected: late 4th
pro comp: Shannon Sharpe
Ian Thomas
only 376 yards and 5 TDs as senior
never did anything before
why such low production?
sleeper athlete for sure
system hurt him with bad qb
can make strong catches
plays fast
deep seem and intermediate threat
could be a valuable #2 TE in throw heavy offene
looks like young Ben Watson, thick
decent speed, not elite ball skills but good
enough to contribute, possibly could work up
to a #1 which is weird to say with such little production
our grade: 3rd rd
projected: 3rd rd
pro comp: Ben Watson
Mark Andrews
hurst had 48 catches with 1 TD, Andrews
had 7 TDs on 19 catches as a WR as a FReshman
toucchdown machine
looks big, more strength than speed
but was former WR
diagnosed diabetes at combine and may create
great value if it causes him to fall
he’s super tough, grinds people for every inch
as much as he doesnt look as fast as some others
at his position, he does get seperation
led country in stats almost 1000 yards
won mackey award
vision like a running back
he’s smart and tough and plays
like he loves football
this is definitely a saints type player
he’s got to be smart and not always take mike
alstott approach
but may get better with pro coaches
hes built righht and plays right despite lacking
elite athleticism
reminds me of old Eli Manning tight ends
like Kevin Boss who won super bowl and was sturd
reliable all around player who could count on but not as
athletic as you wish. smart and tough can take you a long way though
our grade:3rd rd
projected: 3rd rd
pro comp: Kevin Boss
Mike Gesecki
combine warrior, but lacks balance and
leaves a little bit to be desired in grit
not natural athlete in coordinatin (feet)
has ball skills but falls over himself like
eric decker
doesnt attack, more finess than tough
essentially glorified wr
may be overrated
not as much production as should have had
for supposed talent level
will only get whats given, dont take
dudes tape looks just like fleener,
measurables are exactly the same
our grade: 3rd rd
projected: 2nd rd
pro comp: Coby Fleener
Hayden Hurst
OBJ has longer arms at 5’11
runs way upright, gonna get lit up in pros
doesnt brace naturally for contact
speed over power
only 3 tds in 3 years
scouts will drool over speed thinking
theyre getting zach ertz but theyre getting
jared cook, another south carolina
speed guy whos not a stud but serviceable and
doesnt get in endzone with injury issues
our grade: 4th rd
projected:2nd rd
pro comp: Jared Cook
Dalton Schultz
not enough production or tape or catches
but i feel it has more to do with system
being so run heavy at stanford. what you
do see is a super fast footed blocker who’s
a great route runner
lines up all over, some fb, some slot
may be best blocking tight end in class
and most athletic
the only thing is we dont know what production to expect
as receiver because theres not much available
highly recruited 5 star since high school
been on pro radar for a long time
he is a saints best fit at tight end
our grade: 3rd rd
projected: 4th rd
pro comp: Austin Hooper
Troy Fumagali
not a refined athlete
big and tough
not a great route runner
hands guy
natural receiver with massive radius
could be a good #2 TE, possibly #1
theres some top notch catches
ust worry if he can seperate on pro level
could be red zone guy but seems average
tyler eifert type catches
but bad athleticism, ccould be limited
our grade: 5th rd
projected: 5th rd
