Kyler Reed

Although everyone expected Mike McNeill to be Nebraska's top tight end last year, Reed came out of nowhere to lead Nebraska with eight receiving touchdowns, including four in the final three weeks. He also averaged just under 18 yards per catch--a huge figure for any pass catcher, let alone tight ends. He figures to get featured more consistently in the offense this year, though it's probably best to expect the big plays to be less frequent than last year, when Reed had the benefit of being under the radar.
