Purdue's Dynamic 2007 TE with Elite Hands and Speed
Dustin Keller, Purdue's standout tight end from 2004-2007, dazzled with sure-handed one-handed grabs, explosive speed (4.62 40-yard dash at his pro day), and YAC prowess, finishing his Boilermaker career with 1,815 receiving yards and 13 TDs—peaking at 58 catches for 711 yards in 2007. His basketball background fueled rare body control and leaping ability, making him a mismatch nightmare for LBs and safeties. NFL scouts raved about his polish and first-round upside (drafted #30 overall by Jets in 2008), though injury-prone post-draft; a prototypical seam-stretcher perfect for modern pass-heavy offenses.
