OVERALL

Jack Westover is an old, sawed-off prospect who profiles well as a "move" tight end.

Westover is on the smaller side of things at 6'3" and 243 pounds. His short arms and wingspan only exacerbate that. Westover doesn't have the build of a standard Y tight end who blocks downhill and wins as a contested-catch security blanket.

At the same time, Westover is a fluid mover. He's an agile athlete with enough speed to be a nuisance in the open field. Westover is also a clean pass-catcher. While he won't go up for the ball in the air, he catches passes without breaking stride and knows how to find the ball outside his frame.

Westover can also still be useful as a blocker despite his size. Westover's athleticism makes him valuable on moving blocks, such as slicing across the formation to kick out the backside end or pulling ahead into space. Westover also blocks with good effort and technique.

Westover can be a solid backup tight end who plays off the ball. His movement skills in space and useful movement-based blocking profile gives him a clear role in the league.

GRADE: 5.7 (Backup/Draftable — 6th/7th Round)
