Numerous prospects each year have basketball backgrounds from their high school days, but few have it show up on tape like Angeline does. Keep in mind his blocking demeanor is more basketball player than tight end. He currently lacks the toughness and play strength to sustain blocks at the NFL level. As a pass catcher, he uses his long strides to climb past linebackers and is able to work vertically and across the hashes on intermediate routes. He's athletic catching on the move with soft, sticky hands and uses his basketball footwork when separating near the end zone. He's basically a bigger, taller receiver, but there's talent to consider as a pass-catching option.
