Our friends over at Draft Wire have released individual scouting reports of some of this year’s top prospects, including six tight ends that the Atlanta Falcons may have interest in drafting with Austin Hooper potentially on his way out.
Let’s go through all six tight end profiles and see what Draft Wire had to say.
Thaddeus Moss — LSU
Size: 6-foot-2, 250 lbs
“Great blocker on the edge, running backs will love running behind Moss. Some of the best hands in the class, he is as sure handed as they come. Get the ball near his frame and Moss likely comes down with the ball. Rarely will he require double-catches to bring the ball in. When dealing with smaller defenders, will box them out with his wide frame to seal off defenders to prevent passes defended.”
“Not a well defined route runner, a bit of a shock since he is the son of the one of the two best wide receivers of all-time. Needs to become more refined as a route runner since Moss won’t win matchups with his limited athleticism.”
