    One of the most intriguing, targets on the board, make that most intriguing. Heze is 6'5 300 out of Brunswick Ga. However, he is rated as the # 11 Athlete on the board, not OT, not TE but athlete. Wherever he goes he will be listed as a TE, but he is so much more. Watch his film. An UF is totally in the mix for him.

    Feels like the TE order is Prothro, Kent, Aumua.....with the latter jumping on board I would think one of those top two gets the other slot if they pull the trigger

    Incredible film. Creative staff. UF would sell him what kind of role?

    Teach him how to block, and in 2 years switch him to OT. He'll make more money in the NFL there than at TE.

    What about Lincoln Watkins? Is he even being considered?

    Heze's film is wild. He has great balance and is surprisingly agile. My guess is he would be asked to get to 275 if he wants to play TE.

    Seems like a player you want to get the ball to. OT, no. TE, occasionally. I hope he likes the role our staff is selling.

    If he's that much of an athelte, he might be unblockable at DT or DE/Edge

    I'd be shocked if he goes anywhere but Georgia.

    It looks like I need to do a TE board thread.

    We have a lot of skill guys that can get more yards than him. His quick feet would make him a lot more money at OT. At the college level, yes, he could be a great blocker and catcher, making him hard to predict and defend.

    Not just that, because we have Kyle Pitts footage we can show.

    The thing is, has UF ever signed a Glynn County, Ga Football player? I can't think of one since I began HS there 50 years ago. I don't believe they produce much top end talent up there, but what I can think of ended up at Ga. or elsewhere.

    Very nimble & quick for someone his size. Imagine being a DB and seeing him coming at you with a full head of steam.
