Bellinger shows scouts pass-catching ability to complement his run-blocking skills; punter Matt Araiza also impresses
Daniel Bellinger’s mission in the four months leading up to the 2022 NFL Draft is convincing teams that he’s a complete tight end — that he can block in the running gameThat was the impression the former San Diego State tight end wanted to leave in last month’s Senior Bowl and last week’s NFL combine.
Bellinger’s combine effort has some observers regarding him now as an early Day 3 selection — fourth or fifth round? — of the seven-round draft. Could SDSU’s Pro Day and/or private workouts with NFL in coming weeks improve his stock even more? Did that make Bellinger more of a focal point thereafter? Nope. He had one catch the following week against Utah. None the week after that against Towson.While he did seemingly everything well on the field, Bellinger was overshadowed in the Mountain West by Colorado State tight end Trey McBride.
“I got a really good feeling from a lot of the coaches,” said Bellinger, who met informally with each NFL team. “They had a lot of good things to say about me. How I performed definitely helped me improve my stock.” “Just stay mentally locked in for whatever comes my way,” he said. “Keep this edge going and focusing on what I need to do.”
