TE's (A new concept) talk...

what does Hill weigh ?

Looks about 240.....

Good, when I saw roster weights I thought the TE position for the most part looked too small to be really effective

Doubt Bingham is as small as he is listed and Holt was playing Offensive Tackle in spring and held his own.
There is a good mix of TEs. Bingham and Holt are physical enough to block DL size players. As per players that could change position in future based on six TEs on roster Holt could be a Tackle down the road.

Go Griz still has last year or spring weights listed as far as I can tell. Most the TE and OL players have gained weight this summer. Effective Tight Ends in FCS are usually 230-240's and mobile. If they are mobile and 250+ then they should be FBS level talent. Besides Willie Walden (was like 265+right?) I don't think we had many 250+ guys that were effective although I could be wrong During recruiting they look for players in that 220 range that can add 15-20 pounds and not lose effectiveness. Vollert for Weber was 240s, Devalue was 240s, Pruitt was 240's and they were all drafted in the last few years.

Does anybody else think that 2-3 of these guys will either switch positions or be gone? Six seems like a LOT of FR TE's....

I bet one or two will be on the o line when its all said and done.
