Mike Gesicki TE Penn State

I am watching the 3rd day of Senior Bowl practice right now and I am really impressed by this kid.  He is a big body who knows how to go get a ball when it is up in the air. from what I can see, he is projected to go in rounds 2-4. Mayock said he is a capable blocker but a strong Red Zone threat. He had 57 receptions for 563 yards and 9 TD's last season. I think he would be a great player for us if we were able to get him in the 3rd and a no brainer in the 4th. 

 

Any Penn State fans have an opinion on him?

I’m a Fumagalli guy myself. Just a gut feeling, but he’s got good mits. Could also see him slipping because of the missing finger (I believe it was form birth, but he’s only got 9 fingers). Scouts and teams are weird about stuff like that. Same reason I don’t think a team will use a pick on Griffith from UCF even though I think he’s a Day 2 talent.

Andrews is the cream of the crop. I like the Dallas Goedert kid from SDSU too (was at Senior Bowl practice but won’t play in game due to injury).

 

gesicki is a nice weapon to have in passing game. If we had one. Please let us have one, Mr. Beane.

I’m not a huge fan. He struggles with blocking, and doesn’t have the speed that today’s great tight ends possess. He could be a soild player, but I don’t see him as a difference maker. We already have O’Leary who I believe is similar to what Gesicki projects to as a pro. He’d definitely be a fan favorite in Buffalo though.

Who do you think are better options?

 

Troy Fumagalli? Mark Andrews?

 

Mark Andrews is the best TE in the draft from my perspective but you will have to spend a lot more draft capital to get him.  A lot of 'experts' have him going late 1st round.

Lol. So much for not having speed. He ran a 4.55 40, fastest TE at the Combine so far.
