2010 4th Round Draft Pick TE: Dennis Pitta
Pitta didn’t grade out as an elite athlete and he wasn’t known for being a particularly physical blocker but by his second season in the league he was the primary TE for the Ravens and displayed his good hands and ability to make crucial catches in key situations. Pitta suffered a devastating fractured hip injury in 2013 and managed to come back late in the year just in time for a potential playoff run. Things were looking good for him in 2014 but unfortunately he suffered yet another injury to the same hip and his NFL future is in question.
