2023 DFF Draft Coverage: Luke Musgrave to the Packers

Luke Musgrave  |  Oregon State 6’6” 253 lbs. |  9/2/2000 (22)

Luke Musgrave was drafted by the Green Bay Packers, becoming the fourth Tight End and 42nd overall player in the 2023 NFL Draft. 

COLLEGE PRODUCTION

Musgraves’ college numbers are less than underwhelming. He caught just 47 passes for 633 yards and two touchdowns. Key factors such as the shortened 2020 season and a lingering knee injury hampered his statistical output. 

FILM

Musgrave is a freak of nature at the tight end position. He is a good route runner that can be placed almost anywhere within an offensive formation. He has great hands and can be elusive once he catches it. His 6’6” frame makes him very difficult to cover downfield. He will be able to win 50/50 balls on most defenders, and can immediately step in as a passing weapon for Green Bay. 

ATHLETIC TESTING

Musgrave ran a 4.61 40-yard dash at the NFL Combine. He also recorded a 36” vertical and a 10’ 5” broad jump. He held a RAS score of 9.78/10, good for fourth best in the class.

Rapid Reaction to Landing Spot: Excellent

FANTASY INSIGHTS

Luke Musgrave landed in an ideal spot for fantasy production. He was ranked as my third tight end from this rookie class and will continue to rank as such with this landing spot. He should immediately hold the keys to the starting job, and can eventually turn into a top-12 tight end.
