Only an issue if you could conceivably pull both in ...The reality is that Culp is likely the easier pull for a number of reasons (location, relationship with Lubick) ... From a talent standpoint, what is hard in comparing high school tape at time is trying to compare what they are asked to do for their teams and in particular at the HS level for WR/TE prospects when it comes to catching the ball a lot depends on opportunity and quality of QB.With Ezeike, he's got an outstanding catch radius and his ability to make the difficult catch look easy stands out pretty quickly. He looks a little more lumbering to me in his RAC style than fluid. I'm not sure that I see a guy that bulks up to 6'5" 245 range with his frame ... he's probably more in the Mike Williams (USC) mode to me in terms of being a big body WR that can bully DBs but too fast for LBs. I'm not sure I see it for him playing TE.Culp to me looks like more of a natural athlete to me given his body frame and it definitely looks like he could carry more weight and get to that 6'4" 240-245 range without losing much (if any) of his athletic ability. While he doesn't look like the most natural of pass catchers it's still very good. The reality of playing with a 2 TE system is that it has the ability to create significant mismatch problems for opposing defenses. But the key to the 2 TE system is that the TEs have to be able to be effective players in both the run and pass game. It's ok to have a mix where one is known to be a stronger receiver than blocker and vice versa. But they can't be empty in one of the components. The above is why we have the affectionate name for a recruiting slot for "White TE" because that's the TE that we expect will be the stronger option in the blocking component. Jake Peters (assuming healthy) is the perfect fit for this role and to me a throw back to our long line of TEs coming from the 90s in terms of the ability to be above average in both aspects of TE play ... his ceiling as "White TE" is significantly higher than the Sample/Dissly combo that we had in 2016 and IMO higher ceilings than both Kizer or Otton.
I'd like them both. I think Ezeike will get a USC offer before too long, tho.

So two BTEs this year instead of a WTE, or abundance and take one less somewhere else? Since we took 3 WR, 2 WTE (I'm including Jacob Kizer), and 1 BTE last cycle... I'd assume a max of 4 combined WR/TE, without taking more than 1 of each kind of TE.The reports of Chase Williams not hearing much from us anymore might indicate that we're fine only taking 2 WRs (Ozzy and Spiker).
It's hard.
Ezeike sounds too much like Izbiki.
