Imo he should be a first round type. Just got to get him the ball in stride
Willie Smith caught for over 800 yards in 84.I'm a big fan of Mallory - 700+ yds is definitely doable.
Brevin would've had over 700 if he stayed healthy last year.
But understand - Winslow's Soph year is the only year any Canes TE has gone over 700 yds - so it's a pretty tall order.
He had 330 yards as a backup last year. He was tight end 1 for six games over the last two seasons while Brevin was hurt. During those games he caught 22 passes for 393 yards. He’s statistically a more productive receiver than Jordan was.Not to be a POS, but it’s a pipe dream.
A healthy Mallory? 35 catches 450 yards and 4 TDs.
Please prove me wrong
His first 2 years on team. He dropped almost everything as a sophmore.When has he had a problem with drops?

His numbers weren’t better than Jordan’s lol. And there won’t be as many two TE sets this year.Mallory’s numbers as the #1 tight end were better than Jordan’s. He also improved his hands significantly from 2019 to last year. I expect a big season. They’re trying to establish themselves as a power running team for 2021 so I expect plenty of 2 tight end formations with Mallory often playing the role of a glorified WR.
They absolutely were. He averaged 65.5 yards per game as the starting tight end while Jordan was hurt. Jordan averaged 52.2 yards per game as the starting tight end for Miami in his career.His numbers weren’t better than Jordan’s lol. And there won’t be as many two TE sets this year.
He's going to be an All American. Kid has it all and is the fastest TE we've had since Olsen. (Not sure how fast Arroyo is)What can we expect from a healthy Mallory as the lead TE?
I went back and looked at the seven games he played the last couple years without Brevin (Louisville, FIU, Duke, La Tech, Pitt, UVA, NC State). The results were surprising.
In those seven games, he had 410 yards (59 ypg). Extend that over a 12-game season and you have 703 yards. That would be the biggest number for a TE at Miami since Winslow's sophomore year.
Can Mallory make the leap to Mackey candidate? Or is he always going to struggle with durability and drops?

The untapped upside would come with health. He was a 10.9 100M guy in high school, has played like that in practice at times but has rarely looked fully healthy in the games. At his best, he eats up grass with his strides.He's big and he can run. When he gets the ball he runs angry. His blocking has steadily improved. That's more than you can say for a lot of TEs but I don't see untapped upside. He's an effective role player.
I could see him having a career like Blake Jarwin in the NFL.
