Getting some attention from the Scouting Director of the NFL Draft Bible.

Absolutely criminal he only had 29 touches in 12 games last season.

Loved him at HC—a real talent—and I agree we might have gone to him more. Of course with AA, TA, and SG we had plenty of other targets. Re:NFL, is he a bit undersized for tight end? Aren’t most 6-6 or taller? 4.6 is strong and so is vertical

A legitimate NFL prospect and could enjoy a good career he is Whitten but with better speed and vertical-just depends where he goes
Questions around his run blocking

Agree and thanks for the correction
Imo he is a JW type of te with slightly better speed, but I question his blocking skills. Probably a clearer way of expressing it. No intention to suggest he was as talented. A legitimate prospect at this point is fair, a legitimate NFL talent would have been more than a stretch. It depends on which team gives him an opportunity as to whether he sticks. If the right opportunity, and he avoids injuries, I could see him lasting longer than a season. To me anything more than a year in professional sports begins to count towards a career.

Jason Witten is a Hall of Famer and one of the best tight ends in the history of the sport. Are we really making this parallel?
