What's the rest of his position-specific ratings? It all depends on that. Need to know his blocking, speed, acceleration, strength, etc.

Are you saying you don't use a TE often in your offense? Why don't you just keep him at TE and find a playbook that will utilize this guy. I'm sure he could play WR without much problem but he might be better served as a TE. Probably won't have WR speed.

Seems like you have a Jimmy Graham hybrid type. If you have a great team with good TEs on the roster maybe you should consider redshirting him for maximum player growth. This is the type of TE you need to use all around the field. Use the quick sub option on the formation screen (Right Stick) to switch him around in WR spread formations.

Re: What should i do with this recuit

If you're going old-school Nebraska, then I would put him at WR for three reasons:

1. He will probably be a much better blocker than your current WR & since you're an option-based offense that is important to get those extra yards

2. That will leave a spot on the roster for you to recruit a block-first TE & without him listed as a TE that will definitely help your playing time recruiting pitch

3. By moving him to WR, his speed will get better if he's not quite up to par. Maybe consider redshirting him to give him an offseason to build better WR attributes.

Were you able to scout his speed, acceleration, receiving, & blocking ratings before signing him?

Re: What should i do with this recuit

I got the #1 TE one year. I played him at the TE spot as a freshman and he caught everything, so I moved him to WR after that, mainly slot because he had the best hands for the most part for crossing routes.
