Tyler Warren Expected as Top NFL Draft Tight End

As the NFL draft approaches, Penn State tight end Tyler Warren has emerged as a top prospect, with NFL analyst Chris Simms predicting he will make more big plays than former Georgia tight end Brock Bowers in the NFL. Warren, who earned accolades such as the John Mackey Award, declined to participate in the Pro Day workouts, preferring to schedule private sessions with teams instead. His impressive college career includes 153 receptions for 1,839 yards and 25 touchdowns, and he has been recognized for his versatility and ability to create big plays. Coach James Franklin highlighted the program's strong tradition of developing NFL talent, particularly at tight end, with Warren poised to continue that legacy. Warren's strategic approach to pre-draft preparation has sparked discussions among NFL teams about his potential impact in the league. He aims to be the first tight end from Penn State to be drafted in the top 10 since Kyle Brady.
