Blake Turner brings size, versatility, and classic Kansas State grinder energy
Blake Turner is a 6-foot-3, 224-pound freshman tight end for Kansas State who arrived as a preferred walk-on and redshirted in 2024, so his current value is more about upside than box-score production. His high-school résumé stands out: 30 catches for 481 yards and 3 touchdowns as a receiver, plus 54 tackles, 16 tackles for loss, and 5 sacks on defense in 2023, which hints at real two-way toughness and functional athleticism. In other words, he looks like a developmental TE who can bring effort, physicality, and sneaky versatility—the kind of lunch-pail add coaches love to mold.
