Scout’s views: The take on David Tyree

A pro scout from another NFL team breaks down David Tyree, 28, who is entering his sixth season.

As a receiver: A decent route runner, not a great route runner. An intermediate receiver. Like a lot of guys, he doesn't have great speed. Works inside well. Can break press coverage because of his strength. Probably more of a No. 4 receiver than a No. 3. His special teams play is so strong, you'd probably lose that if he had to play more.

As a special teams player: Aggressive and smart. Understands lane responsibility and angles. Is always around the ball. Plays hungry.

Bottom line: His strength is his strength, like you saw in the Super Bowl. He's strong and aggressive and can push his way around. Has been nicked up a lot, which has led to some inconsistencies in his play.
