FantasyPros Articles on Eli Stowers
From the article
The 6-4, 239-pound Stowers might not be heavy enough to play as an in-line tight end, which could potentially limit his snaps. It's hard to project big things for Stowers in his rookie year when his usage and role are uncertain, but his athleticism and college production suggest he's capable of big things sooner or later.
STACKED’s take
Stowers' weight may limit in-line TE snaps despite elite college production and athleticism.
Stowers was taken 54th overall in the second round by the Eagles. He won the John Mackey Award as the best college tight end, finishing his senior year at Vanderbilt with 62 catches for 769 yards and four touchdowns; he had a 27% target rate and averaged 2.55 yards per route run. He's an athletic marvel at 6-4, 239 pounds with a 4.51 forty time and 45.5-inch vertical jump (former Texas state high school high-jump champion). However, his weight might be insufficient for in-line tight end play, which could limit his snaps. It's hard to project big rookie-year production when his usage and role are uncertain, but his athleticism and college production suggest he's capable of big things sooner or later.
