Summary

Final Report

Michael Trigg is the most popular name in this draft cycle that I don't think is draftable. While Trigg finally found some success at Baylor, this is the exact type of TE you simply do not see in the NFL that does tend to find a niche in air-raid derivative offenses like Jake Spavital's. The air raid traditionally does not even roster a TE, and in the more modern context, the blocking roles often skip the in-line guy. He occupies the role of the flex TE while getting in-line TE matchups and looks in the passing game. This is common among college TEs, but it's just not a real projection. He's far too thin and soft to block in-line at the college level, let alone the NFL level. As a receiver, he has some nice athleticism but is over-reliant on contested catch magic on Big 12 safeties and linebackers. Especially with no athletic testing, this isn't enough to give me anything to really bet on. That isn't what makes him undraftable. All of those translation concerns, in conjunction with dismissal from Lane Kiffin's Ole Miss, which is a hell of a concept to imagine frankly, and multiple times being attacked physically by authority figures on the sidelines of the universities he played for, make it all just not worth the opportunity cost.
