Tanner Conner TE Sleeper

[pulses]

almost 6'3 230 lbs ran a 4.37 at his pro day with a 39.5 inch vertical and a 10 feet 7 broad jump ALl 3 were in the top 90 percentile.2021 Big Sky Track and Field Championship participant. Would be a nice day 3 pick to develop and we could move him all around the field.

Sounds like a WR not a TE. 6'2 5/8" and 230 simply isn't big enough to be a TE in modern NFL. He's 1" shorter and only 14lbs heavier than Tee Higgins.

I would agree. I would have no problem spending a day 3 pick on him .We need some depth at WR.

Given the depth WRs right now are Mike Thomas, Stanley Morgan, Trenton Irwin, and Trent Taylor, Tanner Conner could be fine as a 5th or 6th WR who plays heavy ST.
He has better size than all of them and faster than most of them.
He's coming from FCS though, so he's definitely not a ready-to-go guy.
