He had a higher YPC and a much higher TD rate. He was also just as good of a blocker and even though Hock is a very good athlete, he's still considerably worse than Kittle athletically.

Funny to compare them as a prospect.  Kittle went 5th round, TJ will most likely be a top 10 pick.  As good a blocker Kittl was he was not the blocker TJ is or the pass catcher.  TJ also won the award for the best TE in college.  I don't ever remember you beating the table for Kittle in the 1st.  A lot of us wanted Kittle but not in the first or 2nd, if people thought he was a top 5 prospect in the draft they would of wanted him in the 1st.  It's not rocket science
