Taylor Thompson, Southern Methodist University.
Was a DE in college but prior to that was a wide receiver in high school. At his pro day, he was put through a number of tests and apparently impressed as a tight end having lost none of his receiving skills.
Like drafting someone like Julius Thomas as the Broncos did, or Jimmy Graham of the Saints could he be an option in the 4th round, in a weak TE class?
His measurables are:
Height: 6ft6
Weigtht: 260lbs
40: 4.59 & 4.56
Leap: 37"
Long: 10-6
SS: 4.41
3cones: 7.40
Reps: 22
Gil Brandt thinks he might have worked his way into the Top100
Do you agree with drafting players who you then convert to other positions and can our new TE coach Mr Peter Metzelaars have some greatness rub off?
