Welcome to draft season! This is the third of 11 positional breakdowns leading up to the NFL draft (April 28-30). Here are my top 10 tight ends:
— 1. Trey McBride (Sr., Colorado State, 6-foot-3, 246 pounds)
Everyone knew the ball was coming his way, and McBride still dominated. The 2021 Mackey Award winner was the first FBS tight end to surpass 1,100 receiving yards since Texas Tech's Jace Amaro in 2013. The two-time team captain has excellent hands (only six career drops) while also providing value as a blocker and on special teams. Projected: Round 2
