Don't mess with Texas
Sure and Justin Jefferson….scouts get it misses every year it’s ok.I'm not arguing against Bower's talent but............... but LaPorta is a beast and commands respect.Austin Abbott
Brock Bowers is legitimately in the conversation for the GREATEST TE prospect of all time.
Where I currently rank Bowers:
- 1.03 in Dynasty Rookie Draft’s (1QB)
- 1.04 in Dynasty Rookie Draft’s (SF)
- TE4 in my Dynasty Rankings
In the ENTIRE PFF College Era, Bowers ranks:
- 1st in career PFF receiving grade (94.3)
- 1st in career receiving yards
- 1st in receiving YAC
- 1st in forced missed tackles
- T-1st in receiving TD's

Unmatched energy in the trenches, an absolute unit of a blocker. Subtle head fakes, makes appropriate adjustments without hesitation, he's got the full package as a receiver. Bowers is 3rd percentile in weight (230), the only true concern I have. When he inevitably adds weight, I’m hoping this doesn’t hamper his impressive 4.48 speed.
194 career touches, 0 fumbles. Ball security is on another level with Bowers, he's the epitome of safe. Bowers will absolutely thrive at the next level, this 2024 class should be one of the better ones in recent memory.
Jeremy Shockey, Vernon Davis, and Kyle Pitts are some of the TOP TIER TE prospects that we’ve ever come across. Brock Bowers is arguably a BETTER prospect than all of them. I’m anticipating TOP 10 overall Draft Capital, early to mid 1st round is realistic/inevitable. This kid is truly special, a world class talent.

And I think everyone on earth respects LaPorta in the NFL. He's a stud.
Coming out of college it's a literal no contest. Pitts and Bowers are and were ranked miles ahead of LaPorta.
Are we gonna argue that Puca was the best talent coming out of college in 2023?
