The more I watched Delp, the more I started seeing a combination of Kittle and Trey McBride, personally. He has easily become the #2 TE on my board.

Delp looks a little Kittle-ish (Kittle-esque?), before George got used to getting the ball. He doesn't use his speed or size particularly well as a ball carrier, but the light could go on pretty easily if he spends some time around the man himself. I like him as a blocker; it'd be ideal if he put on some more muscle mass without losing mobility. Nothing crazy. 10-15 pounds would be cool. Having them both for a few years could be a lot of fun.
Delp has been my top TE ever since Sadiq went nuts at the combine and I accepted the reality that he Sadiq would not fall to 27.. The problem is that I don't believe Delp lasts till the 4th round.

In most mock drafts, I trade down fron 27, try to add another 3rd, and target Delp with the extra pick.

Id go so far as to say there's a really good chance Delp has a better NFL career than Sadiq
