| 2010 Rookie TE Rankings | ||||||
| # | Player | College | Height | Weight | 40 time | |
| 1. |
 |
Jermaine Gresham | Oklahoma | 6'6" | 258 lbs | 4.80 |
|
Summary: He’s coming off a bad injury but should recover 100% and his athletic ability is just sick at the TE position. He dominated the college football scene in 2008. His combination of height and speed with amazing hands makes him a special weapon. |
||||||
| 2. |
 |
Aaron Hernandez | Florida | 6'2" | 250 lbs | 4.75 |
|
Summary: Hernandez is an awesome athlete. He's not as tall as you'd like but fits perfectly into the Dallas Clark/Chris Cooley role. He's got great hands, great speed and knows how to get open over the middle. |
||||||
| 3. |
 |
Rob Gronkowski | Arizona | 6'6" | 265 lbs | 4.75 |
|
Summary: Gronk has a rare size/speed combo at the TE slot and can block better than the other receiving TE's. Think Todd Heap without all the injuries. He'll be a great red zone weapon for an NFL team. |
||||||
| 4. |
 |
Ed Dickson | Oregon | 6'5" | 243 lbs | 4.75 |
|
Summary: Dickson needs to beef up a little to play TE in the NFL on every down. Right now he's more of a 3rd down receiving specialist. NFL DE's will prison rape him if he doesn't put on another 20 pounds. |
||||||
| 5. |
 |
Anthony McCoy | USC | 6'5" | 250 lbs | 4.85 |
|
Summary: Good size, decent speed and he just seems to know how to find the openings in a defense. He'll end up starting somewhere in the NFL after a year or two. |
||||||
| 6. |
 |
Tony Moeaki | Iowa | 6'4" | 250lbs | 4.85 |
|
Summary: If he could play more than 10 minutes without getting hurt, he'd be a dominant TE. He's an amazing athlete that fits in the Dallas Clark/Cooley mode. His problem is the injury after injury after injury after injury after injury. Get the picture? |
||||||
| 7. |
 |
Dennis Pitta | BYU | 6'5" | 247 lbs | 4.75 |
|
Summary: He had an awesome college career but he was basically used as a WR. He will have to learn how to block and bulk up to stick in the NFL. |
||||||
| 8. |
 |
Jimmy Graham | Miami FL | 6'8" | 260 lbs | 4.65 |
|
Summary: Graham is an athletic FREAK! How many 6'8" guys can run a 4.65? He could be an absolute mismatch nightmare for NFL defenses if he improves his route running and hands a bit. He's still raw but the physical abilities will get him a shot. |
||||||
| 9. |
 |
Garrett Graham | Wisconsin | 6'3" | 250 lbs | 4.75 |
|
Summary: Injuries fizzled what was looking like an amazing college career. He's a great receiver but needs to improve his blocking to last in the NFL. |
||||||
| 10. |
 |
Colin Peek | Alabama | 6'6" | 255 lbs | 4.85 |
|
Summary: Peek is very raw as Alabama just doesn't pass much nor use the TE but this guy has amazing talent. He will be a project for a team. He can block very well, he just needs to learn the passing game. Give him a couple years and he'll show up on the fantasy radar. |
