Drake Dunsmore projects best in a West Coast timing offense, which emphasizes mid-range passing and route precision for tight ends.
As a rookie, Drake Dunsmore can serve as a rotational H-back and immediate special teams contributor, with the ceiling to develop into a versatile F-tight end capable of creating mismatches.
A heavy run-blocking scheme requiring a traditional in-line Y-tight end would significantly diminish Dunsmore's impact, as his blocking is a clear weakness.
Dunsmore's athletic ability and receiving prowess make him an intriguing fit for offenses that prioritize pass-catching from the tight end position, despite his limited blocking upside.
Relative Athletic Score (Kent Lee Platte) benchmarks combine/pro-day numbers against every measured prospect at the position since 1987. 10.00 is elite; 5.00 is average.
