2014 3rd Round Draft Pick TE: Crockett Gillmore
A big body type who is known for his blocking some think the Ravens reached a bit considering they already had Dennis Pitta and had signed Owen Daniels. Due to some injuries the decision to draft Gillmore turned out to be a wise one. Though he will never be considered a speed burner he is a well-rounded athlete. He has played wide receiver, defensive end, played basketball, ran track, and was a wrestler. He has a large target area and has the strength to shake off tacklers. Is he simply a blocking TE or have the Ravens procured a better than advertised pass catcher?
