Blake Ayles brings size and classic tight-end upside to USC
Blake Ayles is a 6-4, 245-pound tight end whose profile has long been built around reliable size, developmental receiving skills, and the chance to become a well-rounded TE at the college level.[2][5] His breakout moment came in 2008 with a touchdown against Ohio State, and USC viewed him as a contender for the starting job by 2010, but injuries and missed spring work slowed his momentum.[3][4] If you want a big-bodied tight end with upside as a balanced pass catcher and blocker, Ayles fits the mold; if you need a polished, high-volume production piece, his resume is more projection than proven output.[1][3]
