Good blocking "move TE" (supposedly)
"In line TE with good size and very good toughness"
Honestly I just don't see any upside here. He is an okay blocker but not amazing and his hands are solid but he loses or it's a stalemate a fair amount of time as well.
I just see this as a camp body to be honest.
The NFL.com analysis said he would be a fulltime starter in 2-3 years. I know nothing about him, but it was certainly a stronger writeup than written about half the 6th rounders taken. so who knows.
Izzo has a good chance to make the roster or PS as a blocking TE. That's awesome for a 7th rounder.They signed another TE as a UDFA so they obviously don't see izzo as a lock, if you EVER could think that about a 7th rounder.
I wonder if he's any relation to former Patriot Larry Izzo?
He’s his uncle.Larry Izzo's not quite old enough to be his dad, but they could be cousins.
Honestly I just don't see any upside here. He is an okay blocker but not amazing, he loses or it's a stalemate a fair amount of time which is not what you want to see in a TE you draft for blocking. His hands seem good but he won't scare anyone as a pass catcher i think.

Nothing wrong with having a IZZO on the team..
