Brad Palmer was a rugged, versatile WVU tight end who earned his keep with toughness and blocking
In the 2006 season, Brad Palmer was a senior tight end for West Virginia listed at 6-foot-3, 265 pounds, and the Mountaineers’ notes describe him as a versatile veteran and strong, physical player who could contribute in multiple roles[1][2]. His edge was not flashy receiving production so much as reliability: he moved from defensive line to tight end/fullback, handled key blocking assignments, and played through a knee injury that cost him spring work, which says a lot about his grit and fit for a physical, blue-collar offense[1][2][3].
