Episode description

(2:30) TE Scouting: Simms & Connor discuss the balance between receiving skills vs blocking skills, and why the position is slow to develop in the NFL.

(13:10) #1 TE Dalton Kincaid (Utah): “After the catch, he’s receiver-like. I wouldn’t be mad if someone took him in the Top 10.”

(23:10) #2 TE Sam LaPorta (Iowa): “As the process goes on, it’ll be obvious how well-rounded and good of a football player he is”

(30:55) #3 TE Michael Mayer (Notre Dame): “When he catches the ball, he wants to go to the house. He’s angry, he wants to run over people.”

(39:20) #4 TE Josh Whyle (Cincinnati): “His route-running is off-the-charts good."

(46:45) #5 TE Darnell Washington (Georgia): “If there’s gonna be a Gronk in this class, it’s gonna be this guy”

(59:45) Robin Hood TEs: Brenton Strange (Penn St), Luke Musgrave (Oregon St), Luke Schoonmaker (Michigan), Tucker Kraft (South Dakota St), and Elijah Higgins (Stanford) are among the honorable mentions
