This is a reach for a tight end who caught 46 passes TOTAL in his college career, but it is possible there is some untapped upside. Sample (6’5/255) started all four years for the Huskies, never earning higher than honorable mention All-Pac 12. He mainly generated scout plaudits for his blocking; an old-school, in-line "Y" tight end, PFF College graded Sample as one of the nation’s best run blockers in 2018, and he dropped 0-of-25 catchable targets. Sample tested better than expected in the forty (4.71) and three-cone (7.15) at the Combine, suggesting he may have untapped potential as a receiver. His ceiling is probably in the Jack Doyle range.

Still way to high in the draft to take a guy that might have some upside. We need a starting LB, more help on the Oline. I'm so pissed we have the amount of picks that we have and just let the OL players go just before us, then take the biggest reach of the draft so far on a guy with upside. Freakin disgusted. Pitt may very well get Bush and Wilson or Ferguson. Maybe we can get a kicker with some upside in the 3rd.
