It might be early to crown Kelce, but the results were impressive in what essentially amounted to his redshirt freshman season in 2014. He picked up 862 receiving yards, good for sixth in the league among tight ends, but it was his league-high 503 yards after the catch that turned heads. It was the third-highest total at the position since 2007, as Kelce proved to be Gronk-like in the open field.
As a blocker, Kelce drew easier assignments than his teammate, Anthony Fasano, but he showed well with a grade that ranks 13th heading into 2015.
