Great landing spot for CJF. No doubt O'Brien's first hand experience watching him played a factor in this pick. Good luck CJ.

He joins Shonn Greene and Sedrick Shaw as first picks of the 3rd round

True. He earned his way to the nfl. He came to Iowa as a huge recruit. He didn't get much playing time when he started. A lot of recruits with his offer list after not playing much after 2 years could have bolted. He never did. He didn't see the field much those first 2 years because of his blocking. Now that is one of his biggest assets. Congrats to CJ and to Houston. Enjoy having a badass tight end who isn't afraid to pancake a mofo and be a huge target with huge hands.

Awesome. CJ now a Houston Hawkeye.

I'm sure the relationship between the Ferentz family and Bill O'Brien helped here. Good for CJ. Hope they can find a decent QB to throw him the ball.

"HOW ARE HIS PHYSICAL ATTRIBUTES? He was listed as 6'7" as a high school recruit and while at Iowa. At the NFL Combine he measured just over 6'5"..."

Wait, wut??? You mean someone along the way ... uh ... fibbed about his height? LULZ.

Still, congrats to CJ! I predict he'll have a great playing career in the NFL.

Iowa has had more tight ends drafted since 2000 than any program in CFB

It has been position of strength since Hayden took over. Flagg, Cook, Titley,Hayes, Don't know if Whitaker was ever drafted, but he could very well be a U.S. Senator in the near future.
