Kenyon Sadiq stole the show at Day 2 of on-field workouts, and now we look at his top-5 landing spots.
Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq stole the show on day two of workouts at the NFL combine.
Everyone knew that he was an elite natural talent and would test very well, but I think he caught a lot of people off guard by his incredible performing on Friday. Sadiq notched a 4.39 40-yard dash, the fastest ever recorded by a tight end; a 43.5" vertical, second-best by a tight end; and an 11'1" broad jump, third-best ever.
Sadiq is going to elevate an NFL offense the moment he steps through the door. The last question is whose door will that be? Here are Sadiq's top-five locations that he could land in.
No. 5: Denver Broncos
The reigning AFC runner-ups are picking at pick No. 30, and if Sadiq is on the board, you'd better believe they would take a flier on him. Denver isn't far off from making a run at the whole thing, and they probably feel right now that they let one slip away last year. Adding a dynamic player like Sadiq to the mix would take that Bo Nix-led offense to the next level.
No. 4: Los Angeles Chargers
I think there is a legitimate chance that Sadiq lands in Los Angeles, but I'm not sure which franchise he will join. If he lands with Justin Herbert and the Chargers, that would be such a good fit for him. New offensive coordinator Mike McDaniels loves to use athletic tight ends in very unique ways. Sadiq would be one heck of a toy to have at his disposal to attack opposing teams.

Could the 49ers enter the ticket with Sadiq's name on it to be the heir apparent to George Kittle? Kyle Shanahan has shown the ability to make the tight end the focalpoint of an offense, and if he went from Kittle to Sadiq, that would seem to make a lot of sense.
No. 2: Los Angeles Rams
The Rams, similar to the Broncos, aren't that far off in terms of title contention. Matthew Stafford is coming off his MVP season, and you can never have too many weapons on the offensive side of the ball. They have a very good tight end in Colby Parkinson, but could they look to make a young upgrade at the position? If Sadiq lands in LA with the Rams to play a couple of years with Stafford and become Sean McVay's next new toy, he would be very happy.
No. 1: Philadelphia Eagles
This just feels like where he is going to go, right? It would be so good if Sadiq landed in Philly to team up with Jalen Hurts and a roster that wants to get back to the Super Bowl. The Eagles are likely going to be moving on from wide receiver AJ Brown, and if they do, insert Sadiq as another weapon for them to have at their disposal.
