nice pick i guess, if he switches to fullback that would be good

 

Tight End | Senior | Wisconsin Jason Pociask
Height: 6-3 | Weight: 266 | 40-Time: 4.82

Official Bio

Strengths:
An outstanding blocker, especially in the run game...Has the frame to pack on some pounds...Versatile and could play a number of positions in the pros...Team player who will sacrifice for the ultimate good...Smart and very technically sound.

Weaknesses:
Needs to bulk up and get bigger...Does not have very good timed speed...Could stand to hit the weight room and get stronger...Did not get many opportunities in the passing game...Might not have a huge upside and may only be a backup.

Notes:
Might also project to fullback at the next level and saw some action there in the Badgers bowl game against Auburn...Was overshadowed by Owen Daniels but he played his role and helped the team...An intriguing prospect due to his flexibility.

 

Yeah, with Baker and Jolley on the roster as receivers, and nobody as a blocker, this 270 pounder can definitely help out the run game

 

Yah he is going to be used for Blocking/ST/depth only. But immediate ST for sure and probably goal line sets.

 

We are drafting a team of pro-bowl special teamers

 

Anyone hear of this guy/know anything about him?

I haven't heard of him

 

This pick does not make sense.. why pick another crappy TE. We have enough of them already

 

We can use all the blockers we can get.

 

I am not sure I like this pick. I think we could use some more help along the d-line or even more along the o-line. I haven't been too satisfied with the last few picks.

 

i expect dressen to beat him out, but they are both similar players....either way, the "loser" of this battle will be used in goalline and short yardage situations....not a bad pick at all

 

no, no, the guy had 7 catches this year, don't sell him short

 

He will be a special teams guy, nothing more nothing less.

 

Probably could have gotten him as a UFA. Kind of a waste of a pick IMO.

 

He had 7 catches last year. This pick makes absolutely no sense.

 

Midwestern white stiff.

Look, I'm a white stiff myself, but we could have had this guy for a plane ticket to training camp. There are better players available. We don't need an H-Back stiff this badly. Let me get this straight- a guy who projects to be a blocker with limited athletic upside but who needs to get stronger? If we were looking for another stiff white guy, why didn't we take Bernstein, the Wisconsin fullback, who starred at Edgemont high school and can eat 60 wings?

-X-

 

there is no explanantion for this.....the only thing that i can think of is, i think our fo really belives in thomas to get the job done at olb which would be a great thing for him and the jets.....should be interesting

 

Agreed. At this point, who will be our outside linebackers in the 3-4?
