We're off topic now, but I'll bite. KW Jr was the best of the entire bunch IMO. Would have had numbers better than Graham if he had played in today's TE-friendly offenses and hadn't self-destructed. He lost 3-4 years of production by getting into a near career-ending motorcycle crash after going first round, played for a crap team with mediocre QBs, found a way to **** off the Hawks and Pats enough to dump him, then doped up with the Jets. smh. Could have and should have been an HOFer.

Jimmy Graham, Greg Olsen, Jeremy Shockey, Clive Walford,Richard Gordon, Chase Ford. The U = TEU

Don't forget Bubba Franks who started the tradition in the 90's & Kellen Winslow Jr.

Even Kevin Everett made the pros.

I'll always remember him for the wide open drop at VT which happened right in front of me.
 
Glenn Dennison. Played on the first championship team. Kosar target. Drafted and played for the Jets.
 
I think the streak actually started with Chud. He was not the best that Miami produced, but he began to make the TE important at Miami. Chud and Sullivan are players that never get mentioned, but were critical pieces.

In terms of talent and production: Winslow had the most receiving talent, Shock was the most clutch, and Franks was the best combination receiver and blocker.
