A rare mismatch tight end who won at Cincinnati with size, production, and red-zone value
Whyle was a high-upside Cincinnati tight end because his 6'7" frame, 4.69 speed, and school-record 15 career receiving touchdowns by a Bearcats TE made him a legit red-zone mismatch and an easy target for quarterbacks. He also brought steady production late in his college career, earning All-AAC recognition and finishing as one of the nation’s better receiving tight ends. If you need a big-bodied pass catcher who can stress linebackers and safeties, he fits; if you want a dominant in-line blocker first, that was not his calling card.
