Overview:
Overshadowed a part of one of the more talented passing attacks in recent memory, Alabama tight end Miller Forristall has some intriguing physical tools to work with. Although underused, Forristall has made an impact whenever targets have come his way. He is a flexible athlete who has shown the talent to run a variety of routes to multiple levels of the field. Forristall is a versatile move piece that has lined up at multiple spots during his career at Alabama, including inline, H-Back and in the slot. He has some strong hands, making himself a very dependable target in the intermediate level of the field. Forristall even has some nice YAC ability for the position, flashing some nice spatial awareness in the open field. As a blocker, he is an adequate positional player but lacks power in the lower half. He sports a thin frame that could limit him as more of a move piece than full time inline blocker.
