Reader tip on Purdue TE

One of this blog's readers pointed out (thank you) that NFL.com also listed that Bengals coaches were in attendance at Purdue's pro day. Specifically, tight ends coach Jonathan Hayes was there to watch tight end Dustin Keller.

Keller, at 6-2, 248 pounds, had 56 receptions for 771 yards and four touchdowns last season. He had a strong showing at the combine, another in a line of productive postseason workouts. Scouts say Keller needs to vastly improve as a blocker and projects as a situational H-back in the pros.

Purdue had four players at the combine: Keller, defensive end Cliff Avril, wide receiver Dorien Bryant and linebacker Stanford Kegler. Keglar had a great combine workout, after he trained for eight weeks at Ignition in Mason under the eye of trainer Clif Marshall. Marshall has worked with the Bengals, and he's a likely source of additional information for them about Keglar.
