FINAL THOUGHTS

I could easily seen Blake Annen getting drafted this weekend. 6’5″, 250 lbs tight ends who run 4.41 Forties don’t just grow on trees. NFL scouts just have to be drooling with the prospect of him taking the tops off of defenses down the middle of the field. I don’t think Annen goes on day one or two (maybe late day two). However Saturday might just be the Cincinnati tight end’s day as I wouldn’t be surprised if he gets his name called sometime during rounds 4-7. Expect teams with spread offenses (Saints, Patriots, Eagles, etc.) to give Annen a call as they could surely find a fit for him in their system.
