Seferian-Jenkins has already visited six teams, including the Miami Dolphins, Buffalo Bills and the Detroit Lions.

Seferian-Jenkins has prototypical size at 6 feet 5, 262 pounds and is projected as a second-round draft pick as an all-around tight end prospect. Athletic and fluid in his motions, Seferian-Jenkins also played for the Washington basketball team in 2011 and 2012.


In the Huskies' pro-style offense, Seferian-Jenkins has lined up as an in-line tight end, split out as a receiver and at fullback.


The third-team All-American selection caught 146 passes for 1,840 yards and 21 touchdowns in three seasons. Last season, he caught 36 passes for 450 yards and eight touchdowns.


"I pride myself on being an all-around tight end," Seferian-Jenkins said. "I block, I catch, I do whatever needs to be done."

I don't know. They posted it this morning so I thought I would relay it if no one else had.

Doesn't he have some off-the-field issues?

They mention the one DUI arrest but nothing else.

Jenkins downplayed any questions about his character stemming from a driving under the influence arrest a year ago. He had no other known off-the-field incidents.

"I think people know I don't have any real character issues," Seferian-Jenkins said. "I messed up one time. People that know me know that's not me. I'm not perfect, but who is? Nobody.

"I'm a really good guy, a hard-working guy. Whoever gets me gets a hard worker who will max out his potential on and off the field. I know I will be successful and help that organization."

Who does he most favorably compare to in the NFL?

Can't be true. Why would they waste one of their 30 visits with someone that's not on their draft board according to Futurescout

He has a basketball background. Good blocker well rounded. I'm thinking Antonio Gates for a comparison

Nobody said that about Sims he was a good blocker not much of a receiver
