Whereas you've probably heard a lot about Maryland receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey over the past few weeks, you likely haven't heard much about Heyward-Bey's Terps teammate, tight end Dan Gronkowski. You should get to know the latter, as he's one of the solid under-the-radar tight end prospects in this year's draft.

At 6-6, 255 pounds, Gronkowski has the size to play tight end at the next level. Considered a superb blocker, he showed off some stellar hands in '08 ACC play. After catching just 11 balls in his first three seasons in College Park, Gronkowski hauled in 29 passes — three for touchdowns — in his senior season. Of all the tight ends at the combine in February, Gronkowski finished with the third-best performance on the bench press and the second-best performance in the 60-yard shuttle. Scouts are impressed by his physical abilities and see him as a student of the game.

In 2006, another tight end out of Maryland blew everyone away with his speed and athletic ability. Gronkowski's a very different tight end than Vernon Davis.

That doesn't mean he won't make for a better pro.
