Georgia was his best tape so analysis based on it is a bit skewed. Would be like throwing in tape of Trubs against the Bucs and using that to judge.

His blocking was atrocious and he is 275lbs and cannot defeat a jam.

It was against the best opponent that Notre Dame played all season. That is why it was chosen. If you want to assess him against NFL level talent it does more than Navy.

This was posted in another thread but is a nice analysis of Kmet. Simms was right on saying he's a first round talent but doesn't get out of the top 45. It all depends on team needs.

It was still his best tape. If you want to assess him you need to look at several games so you can assess consistency.

This is catch 1 and is a good example of where Kmet is at his best. He is not a shifty route runner. He is a big powerful straight line player.
Notre Dame asked him to run outs, drags, seams and hooks.
This drag gets him the ball on the move and makes him a huge issue for DBs.

I can post the passes and blocks, but have to do it through twitter so it may take a little while.

I am aware but it was the first start of season and he never matched those numbers in the other 9.
So was it the case he caught Georgia flat footed to start off the season? He was pretty much an unknown coming into season so likely Georgia didnt pay him much mind.
In subsequent big games he underwhelmed as for example Michigan which some consider to be his worst tape. Was that because he was now on people's radar and once gameplanned for he was easily contained?
We saw something similar with Burton where he started out great because no one was checking for him but then taled off at end of season once teams had tape on him.
These are the types of things to look out for when you look at tape throughout season.

Windy, appreciate the breakdown. When you have the time, would appreciate a breakdown on Lachavious Simmons. He’s one I’m intrigued with. Heard he has tremendous power and nastiness, but needs work on his technique, which can hopefully be cleaned up.

Shaheen vs Kmet
Both physically gifted.....drafted in the second...
Big difference was the competition they played against.

So hopefully he gets an opportunity to work with Juan and the O-line to improve, but good to hear that he has the ability. If he can be that kind of dual threat, it actually helps him when he fakes a block.
Imagine being a LB or even worse a CB and trying to take on a block from him. You would prepare for a huge impact, and then zoom he is behind you....

He looks slower than his 40 time in game speed but then again most tight end plays are finding gaps vs truly beating someone with their speed. He’s smart and tough as nails so he’ll be good but a second rounder? I hope so

Watching highlights from multiple games and I'm impressed with how ND used him. He is often in motion and often lining up either out of the backfield or out wide. Not what I was expecting with all the talk of him being a y - was definitely expecting majority straight up off the line, in line blocking and standard routes from that position. I think that is exactly how Nagy likes to use his TE's and this encourages me more that he can be a good fit. Also, he never goes down easily.
