The Bills have drafted a tight end in the first round three times: 1973, 1974, and 1983. If they're going to add 2019 to that list, Iowa's T.J. Hockenson is likely the guy. While other prospects at the position tend to tilt as either a pass-or-blocking-first player, Hockenson is billed as one of the most complete to come out in years.

"Being a versatile tight end is something I think is special, especially now. Being able to flex out, being able to be in a three-point, being able to do all of it is something that I pride myself to be able to do. That's something I'm going to continue to be able to do and continue to try and get better at. I feel like my best football is yet to come and that's what I'm striving for is I'm not going to settle,” said Hockenson.

Hockenson was the best in college football last season, earning the Mackey Award and second-team All-American honors with 49 catches for 760 yards and six touchdowns — part of the duel-tight end attack of the Hawkeyes will fellow potential first-round pick Noah Fant. Hockenson was right on Fant's heels in nearly everything at the Combine, showing off his top-end athleticism that pairs with a very Sean McDermott-like view on work ethic.

"One thing that I learned is to be goal oriented. That wasn't six months I want to play. A year from now I want to start. It was today I need to get my pads down. It was today I need to get my elbows in. And that's what I was trying to do. In order to do that, and Coach Brian, Coach Woods, and Coach Ferentz, they set the bar high and they expect you to achieve that and that pushes you as a player and that pushes you as a person,” said Hockenson.

Hockenson's being projected as the next George Kittle, Travis Kelce-type tight end, likely the first at the position off the board, and very much in top 10 consideration.
