Any Buckeyes/draft gurus care to offer insight on this guy? His measurables are as good as any TE in the draft. He ran 4.65 at the combine and had a great short shuttle. His size and strength are below ideal for the TE position but he has the versatility the front office seems to covet, having played several positions at OSU. He isn't purported to have great athleticism but I saw this from Rob Rang:

"Tight end Jake Stoneburner used the opportunity to demonstrate considerably better athleticism than he'd shown in Indianapolis.
The 6-3 (3/8), 252-pound Stoneburner shaved a tenth of a second off of his 40-yard dash results from the combine, clocking in at an unofficial 4.52 seconds. He also caught the ball cleanly, showing body control and the burst to catch up to some deep throws from former Ohio State Heisman winner Troy Smith, who volunteered to throw at the workout." - Rob Rang, NFLDraftScout.com

He seems underrated to me and I wonder if he might be on the Hawks radar for Day 3.
