2012 DRAFT GUIDE

	#84 Taylor Thompson
		Pos: Tight End NFL Team: TEN Injury: OK		Experience: Rookie College: Southern Methodist Height: 78 Weight: 268 Born: 10/19/1989

Summary

Tight End Rank: #82All Players: #466

Thompson is a big-time project at tight end after playing defensive end in college. He didn't catch a pass in college. But he has plenty of skills and impressed in pre-draft workouts. Thompson has great speed and all the other intangibles to make him a solid prospect at the position. He obviously needs a ton of work to be up to speed to play in the pro game. It might take him a few years before he is getting consistent playing time at tight end.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Thompson might have been a reach for the Titans so he is the same for fantasy teams. The chances of him getting much work at all his rookie season is highly unlikely.

Tennessee Titans TE Taylor Thompson is expected to receive a bigger role in the offense this season especially if they do not re-sign impending free-agent TE Jared Cook.
Fantasy Impact: He could emerge as the top receiving tight end for the Titans in 2013. He'll be someone to keep an eye on.
