UTEP TE with Untapped Potential but Limited Spotlight
Dustin Gilmore, a tight end for the UTEP Miners, remains a developmental prospect with solid blocking fundamentals and reliable hands in limited action during the 2025 season, where he logged just 12 receptions for 142 yards and 1 TD amid UTEP's pass-heavy but inefficient offense (ranked 112th nationally in passing efficiency). His differentiator is raw athleticism—echoing techniques from NFL star Stephon Gilmore's breakdowns on route precision—but he's battled minor injuries and lacks elite speed (sub-4.8 40-yard dash est.), making him a high-effort, lunch-pail fit for run-first teams needing a rotational TE who brings intensity without the diva attitude. Worth a late-round flier if he bulks up.
