Comparing O.J. Howard to the greatest combine TE of all-time and why Obi Melifonwu will be drafted to stop him

Alabama tight end O.J. Howard is expected by many to be drafted in the top 10, something only 18 players at his position have ever accomplished. The only three tight ends in this century to be drafted in the top 10 are Kellen Winslow (6th, 2004), Vernon Davis (6th, 2006), and Eric Ebron (10, 2014). In his latest mock draft, SB Nation’s Dan Kadar has Howard going 10th to the Buffalo Bills, but some are even going as high as top-five, with the Washington Post mocking him to the Jacksonville Jaguars at four.
