DRAFT TRACKER 2021

Highly competitive pass catcher with great size and good route technique but missing suddenness and long speed as an outside target. While Skowronek can make a roster as a backup receiver due to his matchup potential and overall skill level, a switch to move tight end would diminish his weaknesses and enhance his strengths. He's a quick opener to eat up quick throws underneath, has the speed and athleticism to work the second level and occasionally get deep if teams aren't careful about how they match up with him. He needs more weight but is already a plus run blocker who can handle blocking duties from the slot. Skowronek could be the next Robert Tonyan if given a chance at that spot.

McKinley overcame a steady string of NFL-caliber depth at his position and an off-field arrest in 2019 to finally flash some potential as a pro prospect. He made a series of big catches for the Irish and was instrumental in their upset win over Clemson in the regular season. He has outstanding size and the frame to box out defenders and shield the catch. He's a little tight-legged, which turns him into a more linear, readable route-runner and he lacks the short-area wiggle to escape easily from press or separate out of breaks. He's an athletically limited downfield threat, so becoming a more physical presence throughout the route will be essential for him in carving out roster space for himself.
