Big Ten Tight End Article

It is too bad it does not go on so we could see how many other of our Tight Ends would be ranked ahead of other teams starters.

Derby would end up where on the list, 12th or 13th?

The article is a huge load of crap.

Stoneburner has been handcuffed at tOSU already for 2 straight years. That's going to change all of a sudden? Don't get me wrong ... he'll get touches because they're going to be stuck breaking in a new QB. Even with him getting handcuffed in the receiving area ... the Big 10 still features many TEs who are much better blockers (Herman, to name but one).

More importantly, he didn't even get Wisky's biggest threat at TE correct. Wisky's best TE is Pedersen.

Choosing Bosler so high is a joke because scheme was a huge portion to his production. Why not address what Bosler also brings to the table as a run-blocker .... oh yeah, he cannot really do that because Indian's running game sucked!

When you consider the ROLE that the TE plays in the O of a team ... that automatically must heighten the placement of Pedersen, Herman, Fiedorowicz, Byrne (maybe), and Linthicum.

I must admit that I'm a Dunsmore fan ... the kid is match-up nightmare for opposing Ds. Although, I have to admit that I haven't watched him closely enough when it comes to blocking.

Agree with HomerHawk....you have to look at the whole package when rating a TE.

I think it's very possible CJ will have a Clark or Moeaki type of sophomore season. Moeaki got hurt, but still he showed he was a force and so did Dallas in their sophomore seasons.

Just out of curiosity, where did McNutt end up on the WR list? I didn't catch it.

I thought Iowa fans were the biggest s### talkers (Floyd is doing well up here in the Cities by the way)....but these husker fans are on some s###....You haven't even played a game in the big ten yet and you think you run shop...Have fun getting your $@%!$ handed to you in a real conference...can't wait to see what your joke of a "basketball" team can do this winter as well...when you're the new kid in town, nobody really likes you and your cocky $@% attitude....same applies here!!!!

Man, the BigTen hasn't seen anything yet...

#3 behind Moye and Ebert. many teams in the conference have a clear cut number 1 and not so clear otherwise. Iowa (McNutt) Indiana (Belcher) Wisconsin (Toon) PSU (Moye) Illinois (Jenkins) OSU (Posey) NW (Ebert). MSU and UM have the 2 deepest WR units. MSU has Cunningham, Nichol and Martin while MSU has Hemmingway, Roundtree and maybe Stonum. I'm not sure about NU.
