Mike Mayock comments.

Toledo TE Michael Roberts: "He's 6-5, almost 270, and he runs better than that. He's got surprising speed and hands. I liked him on tape and I liked him out here today."

Also said Carolina interviewed him after practice.  

Anyone seen him play?  Thoughts

He looks apart will have to see his movement.

Never heard of him, but always appreciate the little tidbits this time of year.

To be honest with you, I haven't watched many Toledo football games.

So far it looks like The Panthers are the only one that interviewed him.

Could be a mid/late round gem.  DG is pretty good at sniffing them out.

Also look out for Trey Hendrickson DE, out of FAU. He's been tearing it up in drills and at 6'5" 265 lbs has a frame that can add 15 lbs of muscle easy.

Idk yet, if he owns in the game then he could go in the 2nd. Would feel comfortable and love to get him with our compensatory 3rd though.

Saw him play against Appalachian State in the Camelia Bowl. He had one TD which he caught short and simply threw the smaller defenders trying to tackle him to the ground. Other than that he was really quiet which was likely due to the offensive game plan of trying to attack App's zone scheme down the seams. App's defense was pretty fast this year which wouldn't leave room for them to utilize him up the middle of the field as the ends would most likely have hit home by that point.

Michael Roberts, TE, Toledo

Prepare yourself around Combine time.  You are likely to hear significant media talk about the ridiculous size of Michael Roberts hand measurement that might break Combine records.  Moving on, in a very strong looking tight end class for the 2017 draft, Roberts is not going to be discussed among the top prospects at the position, but is going to be a very useful pick up in the later rounds.  It may surprise to know that Roberts is leading all TEs nationally in touchdown receptions, having grabbed 12 scores in just 10 games so far this season, which is in fact good enough for tied-6^th overall, wide receivers included.

According to the official Shine Week physical results, Roberts is 6'4 and weighs 259 pounds.

Fun tidbit is that he has the largest hands at Shine week with 11 5/8 inches. I don't know how much that correlates to being able to catch the ball but the man has monster hands.

Looks like a weapon to me.
