| Brendan Downs
How's Downs looking this spring? Heard lot's about Cam and Rivera, not much about Brendan.

| He looked really good in the O&W game. I think he's going to be a really good TE for UT and will see the field quite a bit this fall. | |

| Kid looked solid in the O&W game. Was wide open on all catches for some reason. Don't know if he beat his defender down at the line or if they thought he wouldn't be thrown to. Big target and good hands. He did kinda remind me of Phoebe Buffay when hen ran the ball though. | |

| From what I've seen, he looks better than Cam Clear IMO. | |

Regardless of how he looks getting up to speed Brendan will see the checkerboard a lot before he's done. With a little luck and more hard work he could be a future 3rd round pick. | |

| Listed as a FB on the depth chart today. He is going to be very versatile as a TE or FB. He has good enough hands to catch the ball lining up in the backfield.
