SD State TE Escobar listed as a top-10 junior
Gavin Escobar - TE - San Diego State Aztecs
Jan. 28, 2013 - 10:40 AM ET

San Diego State TE Gavin Escobar was listed as a top-10 underclassman by ex-Chiefs GM Scott Pioli.

Escobar was apparently "hampered this season by a knee injury that he played through" this season, and Pioli considers him more of a receiver than a blocker at this time. I'm high on his ability to produce as an offensive tight end right now in the more wide-open NFL offenses," Pioli wrote. "He's what we call an "F-type" tight end, a receiver who can play off the line probably more productively than as a blocker right now."
