We only have 2 scholarship TE's on the team, and one walk on transfer from Colorado who was on scholarship there. If we're depending on true FR and walk ons at WR/TE we're in a lot of trouble.


There's three: Culkin (sophomore), Reese (RS freshman), and Blanton (freshman). Culkin was the #1 TE in spring and walk-on Clayton Echard was #2. We also have RS freshman walk-on Austin Ray. He was a three star Missouri TE that went to Colorado on scholarship, but then transferred back to Mizzou as a walk-on.

Waters was our staring TE last season, but was primarily a blocker. It sounds like he has a great shot at making the Steeler's team despite not getting drafted. Culkin and Reese are both already supposed to be good receivers, but neither were great blockers last season. With Lucas, L-Wash, and DGB gone, both will probably be used a lot more as receivers. I don't know if Echard will hold onto that #2 spot and see playing time or not. He might be our best blocker at TE, and if so, he'll see the field plenty.
