Nick Vannett

weaknessness

Not used all that much in the Ohio State passing game, so you really see a limited version of what he can do as a receiver. It may take him some time to acclimate to an NFL offense and the intricacies of the playbook.

no much shake at the top of routes to create separation.

IN OUR VIEW

good run blocker, whether in space or in tight quarters. has good feet and plays with leverage. while he's not overwhelming at the point of attack, he can stay in front of defenders and be very effective in blocking for his teammates.

Can be an asset in the passing game. Runs well and can create separation, and has displayed strong hands and focus to finish contested catches.

strengths

Good all-around prospect who essentially got lost amongst all the talent that Urban Myer collected in Columbus. You can line him up in-line, in the slot or make him an H-back.

vannett showed he can be an every-down viable tight end where you can virtually line him up anywhere to help out an offense. he certainly is more than solid in the run game and helping to open up some holes. when given opportunities, vannett caught the ball well.

While this isn't a deep tight end draft class, Vannett could separate himself as the top senior prospect at the position and worthy mid-round pick.

Vannett earned all-Ohio recognition as a senior for coach John Magistro at Westerville Central H.S.
