Central Michigan's Tyler Conklin: A Day 3 NFL draft pick?

ESPN's Mel Kiper likes Conklin as a potential early Day 3 NFL draft pick.

Analysis:

Conklin returned from a foot injury with 10 catches and two touchdowns last Saturday. He's a great physical talent, at 6-foot-4 and 240 pounds, and he profiles closely to fellow former basketball players that have made an impact as NFL tight ends.
