Towering Gopher TE whose value came more from blocking and durability than volume
In the 2017 season, Nate Wozniak gave Minnesota a rare 6-foot-10 mismatch at tight end, starting 10 of 12 games and posting 7 catches for 104 yards while earning team honors for his all-around impact. He was widely viewed as a dependable blocker, and his profile as a former three-star recruit with legit length made him a useful red-zone and run-game chess piece more than a high-volume receiver. If your team wants size, effort, and line-of-scrimmage utility, he fits; if you need a polished pass-catching threat, that was never his calling card.
