No. 5 Tight Ends
The tight end is a position group that is not the best but not the worst either. But, just like most of the other positions, they could end up being the best.
Key Players
Dominick Wood-Anderson – JR
Eli Wolf – JR
Austin Pope – R/SO
South Bound & Down
Eli Wolf has become one of the most improved players on the team. He stood out during spring camp and is still doing everything asked of him. He is a good receiving threat and is not afraid to stay in the box and block in the rushing game.
Wolf will have his opportunity to play a lot of minutes come fall. However, he will share his time with newcomer Dominick Wood-Anderson.
The 6-foot-5, 245-pounder was universally ranked as one of the best junior college prospects in the 2018 class. 247Sports had him listed as the No. 1 recruit from the state of California. His huge frame will be a suitable target for the quarterbacks.
And, there is the fact the offensive line might struggle, so delivering the ball quickly to the tight end position might be something that happens a lot. The tight end position could really ease the quarterbacks into the games.
