Overview

Stocker has prototypical size for a tight end at the next level, and he could develop into a weapon in the passing game. He is not athletic enough to separate in man coverage, but he runs solid routes and works to find space in zone. He uses his large frame to shield defenders and has very reliable hands to make difficult catches in traffic. He has technical lapses as a blocker, but has the frame, tenacity and strength to develop into a powerful run blocker. Stocker is a blue collar-type player that will likely be selected in the middle rounds.

Analysis

Strengths

Stocker has a big frame and is thickly built. Runs well for his size and can stretch the field. Possesses good hands and a large catching radius. Finds soft spots in zone coverage and is fearless on crossing routes. Tough kid that is a capable run blocker.

Weaknesses

Lacks the hip fluidity to gain separation in transition and is neutralized in man coverage. Does not have the body control to be a weapon in the red zone. Struggles to make people miss in the open field. Lunges at defenders when pass blocking and is vulnerable to double moves.

Grade Title Draft (Round) Description
96-100 Future Hall of Famer Top Pick A once-in-a-generation type prospect who could change how his position is played
85-95 Immediate Starter 1st An impact player with the ability/intangibles to become a Pro Bowl player. Expect to start immediately except in a unique situation (i.e. behind a veteran starter).
70-84 Eventual Starter 2nd-3rd A quality player who will contribute to the team early on and is expected to develop into a starter. A reliable player who brings value to the position.
50-69 Draftable Player 4th-7th A prospect with the ability to make team as a backup/role player. Needs to be a special teams contributor at applicable positions. Players in the high range of this category might have long-term potential.
20-49 Free Agent UDFA A player with solid measurables, intangibles, college achievements, or a developing skill that warrants an opportunity in an NFL camp. In the right situation, he could earn a place on a 53-man roster, but most likely will be a practice squad player or a camp body.
