how Stocker stacked up

1st early 2nd. Late 2nd at the worst. USC guy might go before.

lol:

a fast 40 yd dash time doesn't always mean a player is going to run that same speed with pads on. Also, some guys will run faster once they are on the field yet they might run a subpar 40

Would love for him to land in Kansas City

That would work.

In my opinion Stocker will be the second TE off the board in the draft. He really is a complete player. Really strong run blocker, average to slightly above average pass blocker (lunges in pass protection too much), decent speed and really good hands. He should be a long-term starter in the NFL.

Average pass blocker and decent speed doesn't add up to a 1st round draft pick

Late 2nd, early 3rd at best. He definitely has potential with a very good body type for an NFL tight end where sometimes these guys excel more than college. His hands are sometimes suspect but is very strong with decent speed for his size.

I really hope Stocker and Whoever else does get drafted this year

Stocker and Moore both will be drafted. I think Stocker will go in the 2nd round and Moore will go in the 3rd or 4th round. They both (as well as other Vols) could help themselves with a good Pro Day.

Alot like Vernon Davis a few years ago. Hasn't been nearly the impact player everyone figured after those freakish combine numbers he put up.

Did you see the year he had two seasons ago with those qbs?!

Im a regular poster on that site, and let me tell you there are some very knowledgeable people there. There are only a couple of vols fans there and we could definitely use more. The forum there is really good.

Interesting to see Lee Smith - Powell High school graduate that was going to UT until he got a DUI and was cut from the team.

10. Tight ends don't impress: Nobody really stood out at the tight end position. For the past several years, great draftable tight ends have been coming into the league. The only tight end with a first-round grade (Kyle Rudolph of Notre Dame) didn't run because of a knee injury. Luke Stocker of Tennessee and Lance Kendricks didn't impress with 4.7 40s. When the top quarterbacks are significantly faster than most of the tight ends, that's not a good sign.
