STRENGTHS
Tre is a multi-faceted, multi-position, Tight End who could play in your backfield as a full back, or H-back or, on the line blocking or…in the slot as a receiver. He is a fluid athlete with big hands to snatch the ball out of the air. He runs good routes and is very smart and has a feel for getting open against zone coverages or against single coverages that will make quarterbacks count on him in all types of down and distances. Tre seems to be, that type of player who is as fast as he needs to be without looking like he is very fast at all. Tre is not really a sleeper in this draft, most know and appreciate his talents and skills but he is a bit of a question mark as to how impacting those talents and skills can be.
CONCERNS
Minor injuries seem to keep Tre from playing at his best. He reminds me of Charles Clay who never met a doctor male or female, that he didn’t like. In fact, even at the Senior Bowl Tre seem to have a “hitch” in his step, after a play was over in practice and although that is just pure speculation on my part, if he still is having problems with his knee, it will affect his draft status.
BOTTOM LINE 2.58
Charles Clay played for the Dolphins, Bills, and Arizona Cardinals and had a good career with 357 catches for 3,868 yards and 24 TD’s. All stats that are pretty good but he isn’t remembered as a good Tight End because he could not be counted on by the coaches, teammates, and fans from game to game to be on the field. He had injuries that never seem to heal no matter how much time he took off to get them to heal. Tre can be an excellent impacting player for the team that selects him if, he can be counted on and nagging injuries do not keep getting in his way. It’s really that simple for Tre. Tre will play thorough his injuries but letting those injuries cut into his “dependability to impact consistently” is the only question I see from this guy being a potential Pro Bowl player.
