GTFalcon25 Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Something I'd never considered while watching him play during his GT years is a possible conversion to TE.Here's a decent article breaking down his strengths/weaknesses that also mentions him as a TE prospect: http://www.fromtherumbleseat.com/georgia-tech-football/2015/4/22/8450679/georgia-tech-football-nfl-draft-scouting-report-wr-darren-wallerHe was never great at getting separation from DBs in college. But despite this, he frequently made the catch anyway by simply using his height/frame to create last second space to pull the ball in. That's a skill that bodes well for tight ends. At nearly 6'7 he certainly has the height for the job.He's a little bit light for a TE, and he's not as good of a blocker as you'd expect a Georgia Tech wide receiver to be. But I think he could be a really good possession guy and red zone threat. I would be okay with a 6th rounder for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
M@ck Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Make him a priority around round 5 in almost all of my mocks to fill in at the TE role.. Hes legit.. Would love to have him in the A.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Faithful Falcon Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Keep him at WR. He won't need much separation with Julio, Roddy, and Hester. I would line him up outside too. He has some speed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTFalcon25 Posted April 23, 2015 Author Share Posted April 23, 2015 I think his biggest value would be in the middle of the field on 3 and 4 WR sets. He would be a nightmare match-up for linebackers.And being 6'7 with a 37" vert means he would be a primary red zone threat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B_Lo_Touchdowns Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 Lolo is the TE grab Waller stick him in the slot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knight of God Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 That was my whole idea. Slot receiver and H-Back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbrough Posted April 24, 2015 Share Posted April 24, 2015 To me he is Devin Funchess with better hands. Under Robiskie, Julio, and Roddy, they'll get his route running up to par. Put him out there as a flex TE/ Slot guy and let him feast. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
