He has a chance to become the highest-drafted tight end in New York Jets history and the second-highest-drafted NFL tight end of the past 15 years.
Is Tyler Warren as generational of a prospect as the hype suggests?
As always, the best way to get that answer is to break down the film.
Warren’s stats are impossible to argue with. He annihilated NCAA defenses in 2024, leading all Power 4 tight ends in receptions (104), receiving yards (1,233), and receiving touchdowns (8). He had 31 more receptions and 299 more receiving yards than the second-ranked tight end in each category.
Numbers require context, though. How did Warren generate his production? Did he feast on wide-open catches in a well-schemed offense? Or did he create his production through route-running, ball skills, open-field playmaking, and football IQ?
As a tight end prospect, it is also important to evaluate Warren’s blocking, which is difficult to quantify through statistics. Warren seemingly has the ideal frame to be a good blocker, standing at 6-foot-5 and 256 pounds, but does he have the proper technique?
