With the Longhorns set to lose Gunnar Helm to the NFL, on the heels of losing Ja’Tavion Sanders to the NFL the year before, they’ll host Purdue tight end Max Klare. If you haven’t heard of Klare it has nothing to do with his ability and everything to do with his time spent with the struggling Boilermakers.

Klare’s statistical profile tells only part of the story…

But stats aren’t the most important part of the story. That would be traits. Klare doesn’t just have the traits to be a productive college tight end, he could become a true difference-maker before being very productive in the NFL.
