Yahoo Sports NFL on Eli Raridon

Raridon emerging as impact tight end with strong passing-game upside.

Eli Raridon looks like the real deal for the Patriots; the source calls him a gem from the third round of the draft. He's not the best run blocker, but can do it. Where he really shines is in the passing game—he was on some crossing routes and seam passes, one of which went for a touchdown. The source notes Hunter Henry is still reliable, but Raridon brings real juice to the tight end room that the Patriots haven't had in quite a while. If he continues to improve, he's going to be a true impact player.
