Reliable veteran slot target with proven TCU production
Ty Slanina is a polished, dependable TCU receiver whose value has come from consistency, not flash: in 2017 he played in all 12 games with four starts and caught 10 passes for 76 yards, after previously ranking fifth on the Horned Frogs with 32 catches for 383 yards in 2016 and delivering a clutch go-ahead touchdown against SMU in 2015.[1] He profiles as a player a coach can trust in the details—steady hands, assignment reliability, and willingness to do the unglamorous work—which makes him a good fit for teams that need a mature, possession-style WR rather than a pure burner.[1][2]
