Reports out of the senior game practices are that Stocker may have moved from the 3rd or fourth TE prospect in the draft to the first.

ESPN's Take

Steve Muench’s top performer for the South was Tennessee tight end Luke Stocker, who showed good toughness and was able to wall off blockers. But Muench said catching the ball over the middle was where Stocker made his mark. He made a one-handed catch behind the linebackers and in front of the safeties. He took a big hit, but still held on. Muench likes how physical the 6-foot-5 Stocker is, the way he makes plays in traffic and uses his frame to shield linebackers and generally the way he works over the middle. Muench said Stocker caught everything Tuesday.


Sporting News - Best prospects by position

Luke Stocker, TE, Tennessee. Stocker had Tuesday's play of the day. On a seam route, he snared the ball with one hand and hung on despite being blasted by two defensive backs. He caught every other ball thrown his way and helped the quarterbacks with his ability to catch the ball away from his body. Stocker (6-5, 255) also showed very good agility, quickness and body control running his routes. He was solid as a run blocker against linebackers in the one-on-one period.
