Bills selected Arkansas TE Chris Gragg with the No. 222 overall pick.
Gragg (6-foot-2 3/4, 244) caught 72 passes for 1,003 yards (13.9 YPR) and seven touchdowns in four seasons with the Razorbacks. He was injury prone and underutilized in the Petrino offenses, although Gragg seemed to be coming on with a 41/518/2 line as a junior before knee and hip injuries cost him seven games as a senior. Gragg rehabbed his stock at the Combine by leading all tight ends in the forty (4.50), vertical (37.5"), and broad jump (10-foot-5). Gragg isn't going to block anyone, but obviously has NFL-caliber athleticism. The Bills continue to add speed on offense, and Gragg can be a movable receiving piece. Apr 27 - 6:15 PM

Arkansas head coach John L. Smith is not optimistic that senior TE Chris Gragg will play Saturday against Mississippi State despite a lingering knee injury.

Gragg has only played in three full games this season due to the bone bruise. "The thing you don't want to do is put him in there before he's ready to protect himself, you know what I mean, on a half a leg and then re-injure it," Smith said. "I'm not totally optimistic on him."

Chris Gragg - TE - Razorbacks

Arkansas senior TE Chris Gragg remains on track to play Saturday against Ole Miss.

Gragg has missed the last three game with a bone bruise. Senior quarterback Tyler Wilson has played very well int he last two weeks, completing a large percentage of his throws while staying away from turnovers. Gragg is the senior's second most reliable target, so expect Wilson to continue his consistent streak.

Chris Gragg - TE - Razorbacks

Arkansas senior TE Chris Gragg will not play Saturday against Auburn due to the bone bruise in his leg suffered during the Rutgers game.

Gragg missed last weekend's game against Texas A&M, which was a significant loss to senior quarterback Tyler Wilson, who relies on the tight end for crossing routes and as a safety valve. As a move tight end or H-back, Gragg certainly has NFL talent, but his struggling college team needs him back as soon as possible.

Arkansas head coach John L. Smith announced that senior TE Chris Gragg is officially out for Saturday's game against Texas A&M.

Gragg suffered a bone bruise in his leg during the first quarter of last week's game against Rutgers when hit low while running a crossing route. The senior move tight end would have been a nice outlet option for senior quarterback Tyler Wilson and we were looking forward to seeing his matchup with Aggies linebacker Sean porter. Cornerback Tevin Mitchel and safety Eric Bennett will also miss the contest.

Chris Gragg - TE - Razorbacks

Arkansas senior TE Chris Gragg will be limited "at best" for Saturday's game against Texas A&M.

Gragg was hit low after the catch on a crossing route and suffered an undisclosed leg injury that looked much worse than it actually is. The senior is the team's second best receiving option, catching 19 passes for 234 yards and two touchdowns, but a majority coming in week one. Gragg projects as a move tight end at the next level.

Chris Gragg - TE - Razorbacks

ESPN's SEC blog considers Arkansas senior Chris Gragg the conference's top TE.

Standing at 6'2/236 pounds, Gragg is more receiver than blocker while offering the speed to size ratio that creates mismatches versus defenders. Arkansas lost three receivers to the 2012 Draft, so Gragg's targets could see a big increase after posting 41 catches for 518 yards and two touchdowns in 2011. Auburn senior Phil Lutzenkirchen and Florida junior Jordan Reed round out the top-three.

Chris Gragg - TE - Razorbacks

With D.J. Williams dealing with a shoulder injury, tight end Chris Gragg is taking advantage of the extra reps he has been getting. Head coach Bobby Petrino had only good things to say about Gragg when he said "Chris can make a lot of big plays. He’s big. He’s fast. He’s got good hands."

If you have Williams on your roster, you may want to pick up Gragg and start him instead.
