2.04 Arizona Outlaws - TE Noah Fant

Let’s see, you need a backup for your new starting QB (Baker Mayfield), and Drew Lock is still on the board, so what do you do?  Take a tight end.  Don’t get me wrong, Noah Fant is solid, but the Outlaws have Austin Hooper as their starter, and they could have theoretically drafted Josh Oliver in Round 3 to handcuff to Geoff Swaim and thus solidify the depth at TE that way.  Fant has tremendous speed (4.5 40) for a tight end. And Iowa’s been quite the tight end factory as of late (Dallas Clark, George Kittle, and TJ Hockenson as well as Fant.).  The Broncos drafted him in Round 1 after putting up with two injury-prone Big Ten alumni (Jeff Heuermann, Jake Butt) for the last two years.
