Mason Tipton- WR, Undrafted Rookie Free Agent, Yale (5'10"/179#) 40 Time- 4.32 Vertical- 37" Broad Jump- 10'5" Bench- 12 Reps.
I was able to watch a good bit of highlight clips of Tipton, but that was about it.
My Thoughts:
He showed rare speed and acceleration. He looks like he could take the top off of defenses, he definitely looks like he could be used as a deep threat. He is instinctive as a pass catcher on the move. Tipton has sticky and sudden hands to pluck the ball out of the air. Press corners can sometimes hinder him on his initial release at the line. He sometimes runs sloppy routes, that will need to be cleaned up and he's unable to get out of tight spaces after the catch. I think he would be a good candidate to work in the slot too. Tipton's ball skills shine, he has the ability to track, create space and lay out for difficult catches. He has plenty of potential to improve with more good coaching. His ball skills and speed should get him a look in mini-camp and training camp, but I think Tipton making the practice squad would be his best first step for him as a developmental project.
This was just my observations of Tipton of what I could see from highlight film. Someone else may have a different view of what they have seen or heard about him. If you have more information, it would be more than welcomed.
