He also holds school records for yards and receptions for a tight end, and USF is no minor program. Falls somewhere in the middle with UC, Louisville, etc.
Also love this Scotty Washington kid. 6'5" with speed and strong hands? Maybe he's this year's Auden Tate.
Both of these guys have a shot to make the roster. Not gonna say they will, but I think they have a chance. Same with CB from Dartmouth and the OL from Iowa state. I wanna say the Edge/LB from ECU (Futrell) has a shot, but I'm afraid my ECU bias could color things (purple and gold).
He wasn't drafted b/c he ran a very slow 40 yd dash, 4.89 and 4.95. Yikes!
He didn't help himself any by getting hit in the head during the "Gauntlet" hands drill. He just had a horrible combine.
But, he just seems to find ways to get open and catches everything. Plus, like you said, his intensity is off the charts.
I have a feeling he will make the Bengals TE room. If not, at least make the practice squad.
