Friel had 20 starts, but again the number of chances he got was not

that high compared to most BYU seasons. Lewis's numbers in college aren't really that impressive. He basically had Friel's junior numbers 3 years in a row. Friel and Lewis are of similar size. Lewis could jump higher, but Friel is on the same plane athletically. Friel has potential whether you want to admit it or not.

Friel is being mentioned as possible draft pick. Explain. Did Anae whiff?

Looking at Friel's drop rate, I think the whiff was somewhere else

Indy Coug

Anae has very little patience for guys who drop the ball

What IS his drop rate? I'm listening.

Friel is very very unlikely to be drafted. He may get a free agent shot....

4/24/14 9:02am

correct. He looks great coming off the bus

He does have great hair... I know I'm jeaous.

He's a very good blocking tight end. I've heard that several teams are looking

He's a decent blocker, not dominating. To make it because of his blocking...

Obviously you're a better judge of talent than the scouts from the Broncos.

Even if he is signed as a FA it does not mean it's a whiff, guys who...

4/24/14 9:10am

Ok, say he's signed and makes a roster. Whiff?

Accipiter

4/24/14 9:16am

Not happening, but I would point out that Friel did play a lot.....

4/24/14 9:18am

Yes, Friel played a lot and had a couple of breakout games as a receiver

Accipiter

How would Anae have whiffed? Friel got a ton of PT last year

CoopDizz

4/24/14 9:10am

CB standards. If some plays enough for an NFL team to take notice

Metallicat

4/24/14 11:05am

It's not about PT, it's about whether or not the TE is featured in the offense

Accipiter

4/24/14 12:07pm

If we had a good TE, why didn't we play football like we had a good TE?

HenderCoug

Friel is a big body TE that can do some damage after catching the ball.

I agree, he has the tools and looks the part, but it just hasn't translated

He'll play on Sundays

4/24/14 9:15am

They will take a chance on him, but he won't make it to the regular season....

4/24/14 9:16am

I think he will

Why?

Dan Coats

4/24/14 9:32am

Coats was a dominating blocker, that's why he made it. Friel despite his....

4/24/14 9:36am

I agree with this. He doesnt have great speed IMO either.I do hope he does well

yfootball

4/24/14 9:40am

Age will kill him the most.

y or die

4/24/14 10:33am

His age definitely hurts him.

4/24/14 10:39am

Coats also had good hands. Remember he arrived at BYU as a WR.

AFcoug7

4/24/14 11:25am

and unfortunately those hands didn't translate well to the NFL

Mr Bassman

4/24/14 12:06pm

His hands never really factored into it when it came to the NFL....

4/24/14 12:11pm

Very true. I just remember Bengals fans joking about his drops

Mr Bassman

4/24/14 10:07pm

And he was talented enough to move to FB for a couple of years

AFcoug7

Friel looks like a TE should look, big strong kid that can run

Friel may not be starter material in the pros, but most of the 3rd stringers

His size makes him desirable. Not sure how good of a blocker he is but

Anae did whiff on him ..... by playing him as much as he did
