Prospects Comments
NFL - Goedert is a very talented pass catching tight end with the ability to work all three levels of the field. His ball focus and ability to make the spectacular catch will make him the darling of fans and media throughout the draft process, but, he still has work to do. Goedert dominated a lower level of competition and will have to prove he can uncover and block against bigger, more explosive athletes as a pro. The size, speed and talent is there for him to succeed as a very good combo tight end if he works and plays with a little more urgency.

CBS - Big-bodied matchup nightmare tight end with some in-line blocking experience. Tracks ball wonderfully down the field and can make catches with coverage draped on him. Build up speed and good but not great agility.

DLF - PROJECTED ROOKIE DRAFT RANGE     If Goedert had landed anywhere with a real need at tight end, I think he could have easily been a late first round rookie pick. Even with a middling landing spot, I think he would have gone by the mid second at least. But that didn’t happen. Many people (myself included) were quite disappointed in his landing spot due to the presence of Zach Ertz. I think this drops what I see as an uber-talented tight end to the third round in most rookie drafts. You can virtually guarantee he makes your squad in the late second, but he was the 27th player off the board in May rookie ADP. While I understand the landing spot is really tough, I will be glad to scoop up a talent like Goedert in the third. You might have to wait for this pick to develop, but I think it’s a seed well worth owning.
