Kenny Yeboah is one of the most intriguing tight end prospects in the 2021 NFL Draft as a late-round pick. Yeboah came into college as a two-star recruit and boomed. Let’s take a look at his skillset heading into the draft.
Tre’ McKitty comes into the draft with many question marks. He is a raw talent that has high potential. McKitty has the physical tools to become a solid player but will need to polish his game to succeed at the next level.
Mauler alert! Teven Jenkins is a PFF sweetheart that knows how to show highlight reel pancake blocks. Play after play,
After playing at Temple from 2017 to 2019, Quincy Roche transferred to Miami. He wanted to show that he could compete against the best that there was, and he did just that during the 2020 season for the Hurricanes. Roche played opposite of Jaelan Phillips, with Gregory Rousseau opting out of the season. The trio of Miami pass-rushers will be an interesting story to watch heading into the draft and the order that they are selected.
Jaycee Horn is one of the three consensus top prospects by many draft analysts. He is the son of former New Orelans Saints receiver, Joe Horn. After primarily being a safety during his freshman season in 2018, he made the switch to the cornerback position. He started out as a slot corner, but then made the transition to an outside cornerback. Let’s see if the hype is warranted.
In the 2019 season, Trey Lance threw for 28 touchdowns and zero interceptions while making some spectacular plays, which made him soar up draft boards for the 2021 draft. There are plays where Lance is lost, and the inexperienced and long release get to him. To add to the difficult evaluation, Lance only had one year as a full-time starter (and one game in 2020). He also played in a level of competition that was lower. The tools and intelligence of Lance are enticing, and he is comparable to Josh Allen. That is thanks to the development Lance will have to undergo before reaching his potential.
Javonte Williams broke onto the scene, taking over much of the NCAA. His partner in crime, Michael Carter, needs to be mentioned in that success. Carter’s ability to play a big-play threat in a rotation system is not just valuable for keeping fresh legs, it is also valuable because it fits what many NFL teams operate on nowadays.
This tight end class is topped with some amazing young talent. Among true Juniors like Kyle Pitts and Pat Freiermuth is Brevin Jordan. His size and speed combined with his after-the-catch ability provide a very intriguing prospect for this year’s class. The question looms over Jordan’s head: is he just another college gadget weapon, or is he a legitimate NFL talent? Let’s dive in.
The running back position is a trendy topic in the NFL today. Do running backs truly matter, or are they a dime in a dozen? A player that could carve out a big role if he finds the right team is Oregon State’s, Jermar Jefferson. He has elected to enter the draft this season. Is he just another speedster, or is there more to his game?
If you’re looking for a developmental tackle option with a ton of upside in the 2021 draft, look no further. Jalen Mayfield only has 15 starts under his belt during his time at Michigan, but he has faced some of the best edge rushers throughout the few starts he’s had. The NFL world is buzzing as Mayfield is only 20 years old currently ahead of the draft, and he has plenty of room to continue his growth.
Want to know who the Quenton Nelson of tight ends is? Look no further than Kyle Pitts. With rumors that he could be the second-best wide receiver (over Devonta Smith and Jaylen Waddle) in this class, the hype is at an all-time high.
Buried beneath the likes of Ja’Marr Chase and Justin Jefferson, Terrace Marshall Jr. rarely was able to showcase his abilities. With all of the natural talent and size in the world, Marshall may be one of the highest ceiling prospects in this year’s draft.
