Falcons agreed to terms with No. 133 overall pick TE Levine Toilolo on a four-year contract.
Toilolo checks in at a towering 6-foot-8, 260 pounds, but is expected to be used primarily as a blocker as a rookie. Coach Mike Smith views him as a potential option in the red zone, however. Toilolo isn't expected to be Tony Gonzalez's long-term replacement as a seam-stretching tight end, but could emerge on the fantasy scene if he establishes himself inside the 20-yard line.

Coach Mike Smith hinted fourth-round TE Levine Toilolo could be an option in the Falcons' red-zone offense.

Toilolo — who's a mountainous 6-foot-8, 260 pounds — was drafted primarily for his blocking ability, but scored four touchdowns his final year at Stanford. "Obviously, his efficiency in the red-zone is well documented," Smith said. "To throw the ball to a guy in the red-zone, you want to make sure he’s going to catch the ball. I think that kind of says what kind of hands he has." Toilolo is unlikely to be Tony Gonzalez's heir apparent, but could come into some fantasy value as a plug-and-play TE2.

Falcons selected Stanford TE Levine Toilolo with the No. 133 overall pick.

Toilolo (6-foot-8 1/8, 260) is built almost like a left tackle with 34 1/2-inch arms and massive 10 1/4-inch hands. He also has lineman-like speed with a 4.86 forty time. Toilolo was the blocking complement to Zach Ertz at Stanford, catching 24 passes for 393 yards (16.4 YPR) and four touchdowns as a junior, before turning pro. In the NFL, Toilolo projects as an on-the-line tight end who runs vertical routes to keep defenses honest. He's unlikely to be Tony Gonzalez's long-term replacement.

Stanford TE Levine Toilolo ran forty times of 4.75 and 4.81 at the NFL Scouting Combine.

Considering Toilolo's build -- 6-foot-8, 260 -- they're impressive indications of straight-line vertical speed. Toilolo also has left tackle-like 34 1/2-inch arms and room to develop into a high-impact run blocker. Last season, Toilolo was a much better blocker than more heralded teammate Zach Ertz.
