Tommy Tremble has the physical gifts to succeed at the next level

Dallas Cowboys, New Orleans Saints, Green Bay Packers

One of the bigger surprises of this offseason was Tommy Tremble declaring for the 2021 NFL Draft, as he was not really seen as a big-time prospect at tight end. Last year, true freshman Michael Mayer stepped up as the No. 1 option in the pass game at tight end, with Tremble being more of a blocking end.

Still, he possesses qualities that teams look for in their tight ends, as he has good hands, is athletic, and has no problems blocking. There are a bunch of teams who need to upgrade the tight end position this offseason, and some scouts have already said that they like what they see in terms of talent from Tremble.

The Dallas Cowboys, New Orleans Saints, and Green Bay Packers are all teams that need depth at tight end, as all three offenses run through that position group. Tremble is a player who may not start as a rookie, but provide excellent depth, serving as a blocking tight end who can make plays in the red zone in the passing game.
