In a class filled with a few stud tight end prospects, Knox could end up being the best of the bunch. Edited April 27, 2019 by ganesh 1 1

Zac Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 Am I crazy or did they say he scored no TDs and then show a highlight of him scoring a TD? 3 3

MAJBobby Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 By Lance Zierlein NFL Analyst Draft Projection Round 2 NFL Comparison Kyle Rudolph Overview Outstanding combination of measurables and traits, but he's much more moldable clay than game-ready prospect at this point. Knox lacks early speed and short-area quickness which could limit his ability to uncover underneath but he's much more dangerous when allowed to roam the middle of the field as a more linear route-worker. His pass-catching production may never matchup with the testing numbers, but his aggressiveness and talent as a run-blocker could provide him work as a combo tight end for years to come. Strengths Carries NFL-caliber frame along with him Workout freak-daddy with good explosion and speed numbers Flexible hips to sink and expedite his whip routes Tracks and adjusts to the throw Build-up speed is impressive Catches it away from his frame in space Competitive runner after catch Can make a tackler miss or hit them with some power Accurate, heavy hands at point of attack Strikes with leverage and churns feet looking to bury his man Punches with good extension in pass pro Gives good effort to stay in front of rusher. Weaknesses Workout testing doesn't manifest itself on tape often enough Pace can be a little sluggish underneath Route turns and breaks lack desired burst Never scored a touchdown in college Will get out-breaking routes jumped Has dealt with nagging injuries since high school Bad blocking reps usually involve lunging Needs to keep head back and see what he's striking Sources Tell Us "Honestly, I thought they could have gotten way more out of him than they did. They've got all those mouths to feed but he should have had more tastes. And I like the effort in the run game. Dog qualities to him." - NFC area scout 2 2
JimmyNoodles Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 There's the TE. He's faster than singletary. ?
Alphadawg7 Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 This is who I thought they would target, word was they were high on him. like this pick 2
BigDingus Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 So I guess this is just one of those "high motor" and "high character" guys? Averaged a whopping 19.5 receptions and 302.5 yards the past 2 seasons, with a combined total of 0 TD's his entire college career.... I know stats aren't everything, but nothing screams "this guy won't be here by the time our next pick rolls around, better trade up now!" 2 1
BillsFan4 Posted April 27, 2019 Posted April 27, 2019 Can’t say I know much about him. From what they said on ESPN it sounds like he needs a lot of development? But has a high ceiling? Seems like Beane likes those high ceiling picks and trusts his coaching staff to develop guys.
