John Bates is a fascinating TE prospect!

Ridiculous track athlete in HS (Hurdles, Javelin, Triple Jump, Long Jump)

Wasn't feature in Boise pass game - but he's a solid blocker at POA & Special Teams ace (500+ Special Team snaps). Good size/length/physicality. High floor player. https://t.co/husgP01FEO

All three tight ends, John Bates, Hunter Long and Kenny Yeboah have all looked good in different aspects #SeniorBowl
