We have mentioned recently former Florida TE Cornelius Ingram and the knee injury that cost him all of the 2008 season, and this year there is a similar situation with Oklahoma TE Jermaine Gresham.

Gresham sustained cartilage damage during fall camp and ended up missing the entire 2009 season, but the difference is that while the undersized Ingram (6-foot-3⅞, 245 pounds) fell to the fifth round of the 2009 draft Gresham has remained our No. 1 tight end heading into the 2010 draft.


Want to know what makes Gresham such a highly-valued prospect and which other tight ends make the 2010 class a deep one? Become an ESPN Insider. Insider
