Eric Ebron top tight end prospect in NFL draft

Posted May 4, 2014
Most NFL analysts are predicting that North Carolina's Eric Ebron will be the only tight end selected in the first round of the draft. The 6-4, 250-pounder blossomed as a sophomore in 2012, catching 40 passes for 625 yards and four touchdowns while starting 11 of 12 games for the Tar Heels. Last season Ebron was named first-team All-ACC after recording 62 receptions for 973 yards and three TDs. (Chicago Bears)
