Brock Bowers broke onto the scene and immediately fascinated SEC Football fans as a freshman in the Georgia Bulldogs’ offense. Brock Bowers dominated older, more mature defenders at the highest level of competition in college football.

What does Brock Bowers have in store for an encore? What does the NFL think of the promising offensive weapon? We take a rare look into the 2024 NFL Draft as we put Bulldogs TE Brock Bowers under the microscope.

SEC Football Way-Too-Early 2024 NFL Draft Scouting Report: Georgia TE Brock Bowers

Positives:

Brock Bowers immediately pops on tape as a unique size/speed weapon. Bowers out-muscles would be defensive backs and bodies defenders with his 6’4 230 lb. frame. If you attempt to cover Brock Bowers with a linebacker, he will blow by them with his speed. Brock Bowers is a matchup nightmare for SEC defenses.

Brock Bowers evoked Kyle Pitts comparisons, and we know what type of freakish athleticism Kyle Pitts brings to the table.

Brock Bowers totaled 12 touchdowns last season and will continue to develop as a red zone threat.

Brock Bowers is not only a plus receiving threat, but Bowers is also a plus blocker. Brock Bowers plays the game with a level of physicality that will allow him to line up all over the field and play all three downs.

Negatives:

Brock Bowers sustained a shoulder injury last season. The shoulder injury did not appear to limit him, but you worry about nagging injuries accumulating throughout his college career.

We have also seen freshman sensations stand out in their first season only to fade away in later years. We want Brock Bowers to follow up his freshman season with a strong sophomore campaign.

Weighing in at 230 lbs. raises some level of concern. To stay on the field full-time at the NFL level, you want to see your starting TE in the 255 lb. range. Brock Bowers has to add substantial weight without limiting his speed to reach his full potential.

Overall:

Brock Bowers is one of the most complete players in college football. A scary thought for the rest of the SEC as they have to deal with the offensive weapon for AT LEAST two more seasons.

Next. Where are Georgia's offseason transfers playing in 2022?. dark

Rarely do you find tight ends who can affect the game in the way Brock Bowers can. The success from his freshman season is sustainable, and I believe we are looking at a future Top 10 pick in the NFL Draft.
