Trigg is a dump-and-run receiving first developmental tight end prospect. With his size (6'4", 240 lbs), he moves like a big wide receiver, but he has a TON of development that is still needed to be a starting tight end in the NFL. Trigg lined up in the slot with 66.9% of his collegiate snaps. He's a project as a blocker, and I have questions about his play strength. I wonder if he'll ever reach a place in his career where he can be counted on as a league-average blocking option on run and passing downs. Any team drafting him will have to do so with a receiving-first focus and be willing to live with what he does and doesn't offer as a blocker. Trigg is a fluid mover with good twitch and smooth hips, but he has a slender build despite his 240lb weight listing. Trigg can be pushed around by physical defenders in his routes and at the catch point. He leaves college with a 45.2% contested catch rate while also flashing spotty hands with a 10.7% drop rate. Trigg will need to improve his play strength and technique at the catch point to become a red zone threat, as his attempts to box out defenders in the paint fall flat on many plays. Trigg has high-end moments with some highlight reel spots, but he lacks consistency in his play. He lacks route nuance and salesmanship while sporting inefficient TikTok footwork on many routes. He's just a manufactured touch, dump and run, and option against zone.
