Something, son. I've been watching tight ends in Athens since the days of Jermaine Wiggins and Randy McMichael. You don't crown a kid a future first-rounder before he's caught a single meaningful pass in the SEC. We had a guy named Brock Bowers who actually was a game-changer, and even he had to prove it between the hedges first. This modern habit of anointing players based on recruiting stars and hype tapes is what's wrong. I rememer when a tight end had to block like a tackle and run routes like a receiver, not just be a glorified slot guy. The quarterback job will be won by the man who can read a defense and take a hit, not by who has a shiny new toy at tight end. We've seen this story before. Go ask any old-timer about the hype around certain five-stars who never panned out. The game is won in the trenches, with toughness, not by fantasy football projections. Let the kid play a down against Alabama or Tennessee before we start fitting him for a gold jacket.
