| Scouting By: DraftCountdown.com |
| Negative |
| Could stand to add some more weight --- Lacks explosiveness --- Just average speed and quickness --- Isn't elusive --- Not overly physical or powerful --- Wasn't incredibly productive --- Durability may be an issue. |
| Positive |
| Good height with a large frame and long arms --- Very athletic --- Soft, reliable hands --- Excellent ball skills and body control --- A fine route runner --- Great strength --- Runs hard after the catch --- Shows the ability to stretch the field vertically --- Is extremely tough --- A superb all-around blocker --- Competitive --- A hard worker --- Still has upside. |
| General Notes |
Was a two-year starter for the Trojans --- Named Honorable Mention All-Pac-10 in both 2008 and 2009 --- Led all of the nations tight end's in yards per catch average in '09 --- Missed time with hamstring and ankle injuries in college --- USC had so many talented offensive playmakers that he would get lost in the shuffle at times --- Enjoyed a breakout performance and career game against Notre Dame as a senior, hauling in 5 receptions for an astounding 153 yards --- Will attempt to follow in the footsteps of former Trojan tight ends like Dominique Byrd and Fred Davis --- The type who does everything well but nothing great --- A natural talent with solid physical tools and a multifaceted game who could end up being better in the pros than he was in college --- Not particularly flashy but has the ability to compete for an NFL starting job.

| Height: |

| Weight: |

| Forty Time: |
4.65 |
|
| Scouting By: DraftCountdown.com |
| Negative |
| Extremely raw --- Inconsistent and dropped some balls --- Needs to get stronger --- Long ways to go when it comes to technique --- Unrefined as a route runner --- Isn't a dominating blocker --- Average production. |
| Positive |
| Fantastic athlete --- Outstanding size with a large, rangy frame --- A terrific leaper --- Fast, quick and agile --- Soft hands --- Great ball skills and body control --- Able to do some damage after the catch --- Very aggressive --- Excellent effort as a blocker --- Still has a ton of upside. |
| General Notes |
Just one season of college football experience --- Was a member of the Hurricanes basketball team from 2005 - 2008, averaging 4.2 points, 4.2 rebounds and 0.9 blocks --- Turned down an opportunity to play professionally overseas after his hardwood eligibility was exhausted to give football a try --- Ranked second on the team in touchdown catches in 2009 despite not playing the game since his freshman year of high school --- Has all of the physical tools you look for --- Rare talent who will be drafted based almost solely on potential but has the ability to be a superb all-around tight end at the next level --- Probably won't be "The Next Antonio Gates" but may be the closest thing we've seen yet.

Alabama |
| Height: |
6-6 |
| Weight: |

| Forty Time: |
4.85 |
|
| Scouting By: DraftCountdown.com |
| Negative |
| Limited athletically --- Just average speed and quickness --- Does not get a lot of separation --- Isn't a vertical threat --- Won't do much after the catch --- Has minor durability concerns --- Relatively inexperienced. |
| Positive |
| Tall with a large frame --- Good bulk --- Soft hands --- Can make the difficult catch --- Solid ball skills --- A decent route runner --- Excellent blocker --- Nice awareness --- Smart --- Hard worker --- Still has upside. |
| General Notes |
Father, Gene, and three uncles played football at Florida --- Cousin, Scott Peek, is a linebacker for the Gators --- Began his college career at Georgia Tech but transferred when Paul Johnson was hired since the tight end isn't used much in a triple-option offense --- Named 2nd Team All-SEC in 2009 --- Dealt with foot and knee injuries --- Really improved his draft stock as a senior --- Likely profiles as more of a backup in the pros but could compete for a starting job in the right situation --- Not flashy but might be one of the better all-around tight ends in this class.
