Dallas Goedert 2018 NFL Draft Profile<\/strong><\/h1>\n

The 2017 NFL Draft had three tight ends going in the first round: <\/span>David Njoku<\/a><\/strong>, <\/span>O.J. Howard<\/a><\/strong> and <\/span>Evan Engram<\/a><\/strong>. This year, a number of people believe the run at tight end won\u2019t start until day two. And when it does, some people have Dallas Goedert<\/strong> being the first one off the board, when the run starts. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In his four seasons with the Jackrabbits, Goedert accumulated 198 receptions, 2,988 yards, and 21 touchdowns, while averaging just over 15 yards a catch. He\u2019s had quite the career at South Dakota State, especially over these last two seasons, making FCS All-America first team the last two seasons, catching 92 passes in 2016 and another 72 in 2017 and gaining over 1,000 both years. This past season Goedert surpassed 100 yards in a game six times. Goedert was no question the team’s biggest and most utilized weapon over these last two seasons and very well could be at the next level.<\/p>\n

Goedert accepted his 2018 invitation to play in the Senior Bowl game. However, he couldn\u2019t play due to injury. We were robbed of seeing him play vs the cream of the crop in division one football.<\/p>\n
