Top 5 Tight Ends
1. Maxx Williams (Minnesota): Williams has the big and thick frame of an NFL tight end. While he may not be a Rob Gronkowski or a Jimmy Graham, he does have the size and speed to do damage in the NFL.
2. Clive Walford (Miami): Walford is an explosive tight end who can make big plays down the field. He is also a good blocking tight end.
3. Tyler Kroft (Rutgers): Kroft is a big bodied guy with the quickness to get open against linebackers.
4. Nick O’Leary (FSU): O’Leary is a decent athlete who can make big catches in the clutch moments. He is limited by his physical ability and will have to be a good blocker, even if he develops into a good receiving tight end.
5. Ben Koyack (Notre Dame): The good thing is that Koyack looks the part with his big frame. Though he does not seem to be the biggest playmaker in the world.
