02Scheme fit
Ideal system

This blocking-first tight end is an ideal fit in a run-heavy or play-action oriented West Coast offense, where his contributions as an extension of the offensive line are highly valued.

Y-TEIn-line blockerAttached TEBig Slot
Best role

He projects as a Year 1 starter who can immediately contribute with his blocking prowess, with a ceiling as a reliable chain-moving pass-catcher.

Wrong fit

His value diminishes significantly in an Air Raid or spread offense that prioritizes receiving production from tight ends over blocking.

Uzomah's primary value as a blocker will anchor him to schemes that emphasize the run game and play-action concepts, while his receiving will be secondary.
