  Draft Scout by Conference









  Brenton Strange is entering his fourth year with the program and has become more of an all-around tight end in his time in Happy Valley. The 6-foot-3, 248-pound redshirt junior doesn't have elite size but he puts what he has to good use. He was an improved blocker in the 2021 season, showing the willingness to mix it up in the running game and to chip pass rushers in the passing game. It helps that he was flexed out more often, going in motion on occasion to set him up for success when initiating contact with defenders. That type of H-Back role - where he's in the backfield, the slot and attached as a true tight end - should continue to be beneficial for Strange as a blocker.

It should also help him as a pass catcher, where he can use his speed to create advantages. Strange is a great athlete who has more suddenness than you'd expect for someone with his build. He can create separation in the middle of the field, and has the strength to overpower safeties and slot corners when he's flexed out in the slot. He has an opportunity to become more of a security blanket for redshirt senior starting quarterback Sean Clifford, who lost his primary one when Jahan Dotson left for the NFL. Strange has the build and catching ability to make Clifford feel comfortable throwing to him in a pinch and that should get him more targets closer to the line of scrimmage. But while Strange is the likely starter, it's no guarantee he gets the most reps thanks to the high level of competition behind him. - Centre Times
