[QUOTE="GaTech4ever, post: 510217, member: 660"] This probably isn't the right thread, but I've seen us wondering who on our roster could be a potential Tight End. The average Power 5 Tight End is 6'4 230, and while you can definitely have a shorter or lighter TE, the position itself inherently requires a player to be a certain size (unlike QB, WR, RB). Outside of OL/DL/K/P, the only players on the roster who are currently at least 6'2 and 205 lb are below. Note that 6'2 205 are my arbitrary minimum thresholds considering a player could put on 10 lb or so this offseason with a position change, as well as the high probability that if they are listed at 205 lb they're probably actually 200 lb or less. Their listed year is as of 2019 not 2018. 1.) Stephen Dolphus (RS Junior WR) - 6'5 205 2.) Kaleb Oliver (Redshirt Sophomore DB) - 6'4 205 3.) Peje' Harris (RS Freshman WR) - 6'3 215 4.) Lucas Johnson (RS Junior QB but will get a medical redshirt giving him three more years of eligibility) - 6'3 210 5.) Jordan Domineck (Redshirt Freshman LB) - 6'3 220 6.) Olin Broadway (Redshirt Freshman LB) - 6'3 217 7.) Jalen Camp (Senior WR) - 6'2 217 8.) David Curry (RS Senior LB but will get a medical redshirt giving him two more years of eligibility) - 6'2 217 9.) Tyler Cooksey (RS Senior LB) - 6'2 232 10.) Christian Campbell (RS Senior DB) - 6'2 208 11.) Tarik Carpenter (Junior DB) - 6'2 218 12.) Josh Tukes (RS Sophomore LB) - 6'6 215 I think it's safe to say we can eliminate Johnson, Curry, Cooksey, and Carpenter right off the bat. I've seen Camp's name floating around as a potential option, but I'd be worried about moving our only WR with significant playing time (who will also be our only Senior WR) unless we can get a proven graduate transfer WR. Also, to be honest he hasn't shown me enough physicality at WR to make me think he'd be a serviceable Tight End. I'd also eliminate Oliver because he showed some flashes at DB this year, and Campbell because he's switched positions too many times already and likely would want to stay where he's comfortable for his last season.
