Overview
Geer is a good, short-zone receiving tight end who is a quality blocker, as well. He lacks prototypical height and speed for the position but does a nice job of reading the coverage and finding the throwing lanes to settle into on underneath routes. He catches the ball with soft, natural hands and has a wide receiving radius but is not going to beat many quality man-coverage linebackers. He lacks the speed to be much of a threat going down the seam and is not going to gain many yards after the catch but has a chance to be a backup at the next level based on his blocking skills and strength.
Analysis
Weaknesses
Lacks ideal height for the position and does not have the speed to run past anyone at the next level. Does not have much of a burst and will struggle to separate against linebackers in man coverage. Limited fluidity prevents him from making people miss after the catch.

| 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. |
