Likely because he went from 225 to 280.....

.....which basically moved him from WR to TE. He's a couple bisquits shy of moving right into a tackle position. Since he has never played TE or Tackle, that is why he dropped a star. Had he kept his weight at 220/225, he would have remained a 4-Star WR.

I'm not too concerned with his star ranking, but there Is quite a bit of uncertainty about how he projects at the next level.

Me too. His had little to no stats this past season and his video is less than inspiring. Maybe he'll surprise everyone but I'm questioning him as a take, especially if he is going to be too big to play WR or TE

He could grow into a left tackle. He sounds like he almost has the size for it

TE to LT --- don't we already know how that story ends?

I want our left tackles to play left 17ing tackle. No WR TE or DE's converted to tackle because we are incompetent at singing a 17ing left tackle.

If we convert him to OT his 5th year, yeah, we 17ed up. But can we not ***** about freshman gaining weight? Maybe the kid got fat, or maybe he's another Fletcher Cox type guy that was always going to pack on weight. There are worse things than having a 280 lb TE that had the athleticism to play WR.

I'm not upset with him gaining weight and playing tight end. My post was specifically about us signing a 4* WR to move him to LT when no one has any idea how it will pan out
