Fingon Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 Wisconsin TE Travis Beckum ran forty times of 4.61 and 4.63 at the Badgers' Pro Day. Beckum shed about five lbs after playing in the mid-240s as a senior. The vertical threat fractured his fibula in 2008 and didn't work out at the Combine, so it was a big day for him. Beckum is a potential third-round pick. http://rotoworld.com/content/Home_NFL.aspx The man has 1st round talent, and i think it would be a pretty good move to spend a 3rd rounder on him.
Fixxxer Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 At this time, last year, he was touted as possibly being a first rounder this year. What happened to him? (it is obvious I don't watch college football)

SWVABillsFan Posted March 5, 2009 Posted March 5, 2009 How is his blocking? That is what Buffalo will look at. I personally as a receiving TE want Chase Coffman in the 3rd. But if he can block, stretch the field, and play an little h-back, no prob.

But if he can block, stretch the field, and play an little h-back, no prob. He isn't a great blocker, but he uses his body to get into good positions to hold off defenders. His main asset is splitting the middle of the zone, tremendous hands, good route running, and great athleticism.
Fingon Posted March 5, 2009 Author Posted March 5, 2009 The man was an absolute beast when playing Soph: 61 catches 903 yards 14.8 avg 5 tds Junior: 75 catches 982 yards 13.1 avg 6 tds
