Nick Provo, Syracuse: Here's the thing about Provo: he's not going to jump out at you in any particular area. He's isn't all that fast nor is he an athletic freak. However, Provo gets open consistently and catches the ball. It's hard to ignore a guy who is always open on video.
Provo is an excellent route runner, which helps him offset his lack of top-line speed. Provo probably won't be a star in the NFL but he could develop into a solid pass-catching tight end.
Fantasy Impact: Provo could be relevant to fantasy owners down the line because he'll make his money primarily as a receiver. I could see him someday putting up Kevin Boss-type numbers if he plays with the right quarterback. We all saw what happened to Boss' numbers last year when he didn't play with the right quarterback.
