Scouting Report
Texas · 2026 draft class
Jack Endries has transitioned from a slot-heavy role at Cal to primarily serving as an in-line blocker and H-back for Texas, adapting his skill set to fit the Longhorns' offensive scheme demands. Listed at 6-4, 236 pounds, Endries is undersized for a traditional in-line tight end position, which limits his projection as an every-down NFL tight end but makes him an intriguing Swiss Army knife weapon in subpackages that vary alignments and tasks. His 2024 usage at Cal saw him take the majority of snaps in the slot, showcasing receiving versatility and route-running ability that remains valuable for NFL offensive coordinators seeking movable chess pieces. ESPN rated Endries as one of 10 under-the-radar NFL draft prospects, validating his potential despite modest production and size limitations. His ability to contribute both as a receiver and blocker from multiple alignments makes him appealing for teams running 12 personnel with versatile tight end rooms, though questions persist about whether he has the frame to hold up as a primary blocker or the separation ability to consistently win as a receiver against NFL coverage.
Strengths
- Positional versatility to line up as in-line blocker
- H-back
- slot receiver
- and move tight end provides offensive coordinators flexibility in personnel packages
- Experience at two major programs (Cal
- Texas) demonstrates adaptability to different offensive schemes and ability to master multiple roles
- ESPN recognition as under-the-radar NFL draft prospect validates legitimate NFL tools and potential despite modest statistical production
- Receiver background with majority of 2024 snaps in slot at Cal showcases route-running ability and hands to contribute in passing game
- Swiss Army knife value for 12 personnel packages allows teams to stay in heavier personnel while maintaining receiving threats
- Good size at 6-4 provides adequate height for catching radius and run blocking
Concerns
- Undersized at 6-4
- 236 pounds for traditional in-line tight end role limits effectiveness as primary blocker against NFL edge rushers and linebackers
- Positional identity questions - lacks elite traits as pure receiver or pure blocker
- making him tweener without clear NFL role
- Limited statistical production suggests he hasn't dominated in either receiving or blocking capacity at college level
- Departure from Cal after 2024 when used primarily in slot raises questions about scheme fit or inability to establish featured role
- Needs to be incorporated in subpackages rather than playing every down indicates limited three-down value for NFL roster construction
- Frame maxed out at 236 pounds with limited room to add functional mass without sacrificing athleticism and movement skills
- Day 3 projection suggests scouts view him as developmental prospect rather than immediate contributor capable of earning significan't snap counts
- Competition from pure receivers in slot and bigger tight ends in-line makes it difficult to carve out consistent role on NFL roster
