Just got to watching him on tape too.
Might've just found my new candidate for favorite 27 recruit. You gotta love that his first few plays on his highlight tape is him blocking and absolutely destroying guys at the first and second level. He's obviously very different from Dollar in regards to the type of athlete that he is, but there is absolutely no reason to not be excited about him being a part of the class. Based on the way that Denbrock is using TE's now, he will fit in perfect and be a total advantage on the field. Not sure he'll win a ton of 1 on 1's, but he seems to have a decent understanding of where to be in zone coverage and is reliable enough catching the ball that he can move the sticks and be a weapon in the red zone. Not that it was required, but he definitely gets my seal of approval. With the game trending into more 13 personnel, he's the type of kid that could surprise some people and end up on the field pretty early due to his willingness to block.
Honestly, I'm not sure why every school wouldn't want this kid. I know he's not the flashy flexed out Y option, but literally with his size, physicality, and desire to block he's going to make your team better. Plus he doesn't appear to be the type of dude that thinks he needs the ball. He'll be happy to be on the field just blocking and helping the offense score.
