NY GIANTS.....come on NY

Evan Engram - TE - Mississippi

ANALYSIS

STRENGTHS Good explosion over the first 5 yards of his route. Plus athletic ability with easy-opening hips. Nimble feet with quick, controlled strides into and out of his breaks. Accelerates out of his breaks to uncover from defenders for quarterback. Will have to be guarded by defensive backs. Opens quickly to find the ball. Successful working all three levels at Ole Miss. Has true vertical speed to attack the seams. Competitive, athletic runner after the catch. Springy leaper. Jumped out of the gym to snare a touchdown over the head of a Georgia defender. Able to pluck balls low, high, and behind him.

WEAKNESSES Needs to learn when and where to sit down in the middle of the field. Must learn to do a better job of working back to the ball. Doesn't post up defenders effectively. Allows defender to work through him and disrupt the catch. Has had issues with drops and contested catches could be an issue. Allows throws to beat him up at times. Needs to do better job of selling a two-way go to the top of his routes rather than giving route direction away. Move tight end only who lacks dependability as a blocker.

DRAFT PROJECTION Round2 1-2

NFL COMPARISON Jordan Reed

BOTTOM LINE Makes up for his lack of size with athletic ability and plus speed for the position. Engram has experience as a safety blanket for Ole Miss QB Chad Kelly and can work all three levels of the field. He will appeal strictly to teams looking for a move tight end who can be deployed as a chess piece in a matchup-based passing attack. Engram's ability to stress defenses could land him on Day 2 (Rounds 2-3) of the draft and a potential starting role early in his career.

Engram is a good player...

[Joemailman]

The way this is going I could definitely see TT trading down.

oak...conley

[RashanGary]

Packers would be fools if they had a chance at Reuben Foster and passed him up

Just started looking at him..... similar player as jarrad Davis..... looks like a good player. would be nice to have a guy really make the middle of our defense strong, but I'd rather have pass rush if it's there!

[Sparkey]

Foster or Cook here.

[Cheesehead Craig]

nyg..engram

Damn, who's your source?

[Carolina_Packer]

Could Reuben Foster fall to The Pack?

Man, he'd be hard to pass on. He stops the run, he can cover, and can blitz. So he drank some water...a player gets thirsty.

[Bretsky]

Raiders are on the clock. Cam Robinson?

Both R Foster and J Peppers seems Raider like
