Milton seems more of a lineman than a TE. His career high in receptions for a season in college was 14. This is the scouting report I found on him - http://www.draftinsider.net/reports/2013/TE/Keavon-Milton
Also interesting that Milton is a former defensive end. They are certainly looking at some big men. I thought the following tweet on Tukuafu was interesting.

Interesting TE prospect. Seems he is athletic for 280, but is still a raw blocker.

Perfect depth for the PS. Cable will get the blocking coached up and he could end up being our #2 or #3 TE. Also intriguing to bring in on a heavy package, but can go out and run a route.

The weight range of 280 to 285 has been popping up lately. It was mentioned with regards to Clinton McDonald and Gregg Scruggs best playing weights. And now, it pops up with both Will Tukuafu and Keavon Milton.

Keavon Milton, who was a conversion project, is listed as a offensive lineman instead of a tight end ..... on the practice squad.

I saw this while digging around....
"Keavon Milton is a guy that I hadn't heard of - he's a blocking tight end out of small school Louisiana-Monroe that Russ Lande mentioned recently, and it caught my eye. Lande said:

Scouts have been telling us all season about Milton and now even more so because they were surprised that he was not invited to any All Star games. No one has been talking about him being a high draft pick or ever making big plays as a receiver, but numerous scouts felt that he has value in the NFL because of his dominant blocking ability. Interestingly, some NFL people believe he is best suited to be a backup tight end who contributes as a blocker and short area receiver. While others feel that he has the size, long arms, athleticism and blocking ability to slide inside and try and develop as an offensive tackle or guard. He may not get any publicity between now and the Draft because he is not going to the Combine and will not "wow" anyone with workout numbers at his pro day. However, I am confident he will be drafted by a team based on the number of scouts that believe so strongly in his potential."
