*****

1. Jalen Wydermyer, Texas A&M  

Wydermyer is on top with that size and athletic ability. He could be a stretch player in the NFL.

*****

2. Greg Dulcich, UCLA   

I love Dulcich's hands and ability to make people miss.

*****  

3. Isaiah Likely, Coastal Carolina   

The level of competition that Likely faces at Coastal Carolina is a question mark but little else.

*****  

4. Jake Ferguson, Wisconsin   

Ferguson is an excellent blocker to go along with his move-the-chains reliability.

*****  

5. Charlie Kolar, Iowa State   

Kolar blocks well and is reliable across the middle.

*****  

6. Cade Otton, Washington   

Otton has excellent athleticism and is a great route runner for a tight end.

*****  

7. Jeremy Ruckert, Ohio State  

He can be electric at times but can disappear as well. He can stretch the field.

*****  

8. Trae Barry, Boston College  

After his showing at Jacksonville State, he will rise as he impacts the Eagles' offense.

*****  

9. Josh Whyle, Cincinnatti   

A tall and slender target, Whyle has room to fill out and the angular build of many current NFL tight ends.

*****  

10. Will Mallory, Miami  

Another very solid tight end for the ‘Canes, Mallory just needs to get more looks.
