Pros: Very long and athletic. Soft hands, strong legs, and big body creates mismatches with many outside LB's and safeties. Catches many balls in double coverage and has high YAC average. Head on pass blocker with great vision. Neutralizes speed rushers 1-on-1. Run blocking has not been tested enough at Mizzou.
Cons: Hampered by several nagging injuries throughout career at Mizzou. His ability to play through injury at a high level may not translate to the NFL.
Overall: Coffman stands as the cream of the 09' TE crop. Coffman most resembles Tony Gonzalez in skill set and ability. Translates as a multidimensional TE.
