Cons:

  • Slow
  • Not very agile

Overall

Bushman is a tight end who can line up all over the field. He has a developed route tree but can struggle to get consistent separation from coverage. He can find soft spots in zone coverage but struggles against tight man coverage. Matt has strong hands and can high point the ball well. His lateral mobility is definitely a weakness. He also doesn’t have the speed to out run many defenders. He is looking to be a 4th round pick.
