Prospects Comments
NFL Analysis: Njoku is next in the line of athletic tight ends to emerge from Miami. Teams seeking speed and explosiveness at the position will want to give his name a call on draft day. Njoku remains raw at the position and is prone to some painful drops, but his raw potential is tantelizing. He's capable of using his size, can stretch the seem and pull away from defenders, and has agility to make people miss in space. Rookie tight ends rarely deliver in fantasy, but Njoku is certainly a name to watch if he falls into a high-powered passing attack. He's a great dynasty stash as well for a team looking for a developmental prospect.

DRAFT ANALYSIS: "He's 20 years old. He's an ascending talent who can block in-line. He doesn't even know yet how good he can be. All the talent in the world." -- Mike Mayock
