Hunter Long NFL Draft Profile

Welcome to Draft Week! This Thursday marks the start of the 2021 NFL Draft live from Cleveland, Ohio. We’ll be doing a deeper dive on the handful of prospects BC is offering up leading up to draft day. Today, we’re taking a closer look at tight end extraordinaire, Hunter Long.

The Exeter, New Hampshire native had a spectacular career on the Heights. He amassed 89 receptions, 1,297 yards, and nine touchdowns, mostly in two seasons. He excelled in two different systems under Addazio and Hafley, something he pointed out at his pro-day presser. Of course, this past season he took a bigger step forward, leading all tight ends nationally in receptions and targets, and placing second in receiving yards.
