Top Pass Catching TE Prospects

Vernon Davis is exhibiting old man syndrome. I won't mind one bit if we take a TE within the first three rounds.

Let us all devote this thread to your favorite pass catching TE prospects.

Have at it gentlemen!

TE
Jake McGee
Height 6-5
Weight 255
Florida




CBS

McGee transferred to Florida as a graduate student after spending three seasons at Virginia. He was emerging as a valuable weapon in the Gators passing game before suffering a broken tibula and fibula on Sept 5,ending his season.

Possesses a long athletic frame and enough speed to challenge down the seam. He has good hand-eye coordination and can make the tough contested grab.

The injury robbed him of an opportunity to gain needed experience as a blocker after much of his success at Virginia came while split out in the slot.

This is a weak class, but here's some guys with potential:

Maxx Williams, rSo, Minnesota, 6'4/250/4.75, 1-2 round
Not a guarantee he comes out, but has good size, pass catching, and is fast.

Wes Saxton, Sr, South Alabama, 6'4/240/4.77, 4-7 round
My favorite. He's lined up in the slot, and in the backfield, and as a TE. Good athlete with excellent speed to stretch the field, and is physical. Needs to clean up some things, but talent is there.

MyCole Pruitt, Sr, Southern Illinois, 6'3/255/4.73, 5-7 round
Only TE in Missouri Valley Conference history with over 2000 receiving yards, which is impressive since he plays in a run oriented offense. Good blocker, H-back type, that has some speed.
