He also ran for three touchdowns and while playing on defense was credited with 21 tackles.He accepted a scholarship to UCLA in 2018 and played sparingly then and also in 2019. In 2020 Dulcich played in all 7 games and started. He finished the year second on the team in receptions with 26 for 517 yards and a team-best 5 touchdowns. His 19.9 yards per catch average was second-best in the nation among tight ends. He also ranked second in the nation among tight ends in receiving yards per game (73.9)and as a result was voted second-team All-Pac-12 by the league coaches.
In 2021 he started all 12 games and finished the year with 42 catches and 725 YDs and 5 TDs. His 17.3 yards per catch average was No. 3 among the nation's tight ends and his 60.4 yards per game ranked number 5 in the Pac-12. Dulcich was a semifinalist for the John Mackey Award as the nation's top tight end.
Scouting Report: Strengths
- Has enough speed to challenge the seam but does not possess elite top-end speed.
- Good size, decent overall length has a excellent catch radius 33 ⅞” arms, 80” wingspan and big hands 10 ⅞”
- Is a big play specialist who excels as an intermediate and deep threat - has an AVG of 17.3 an 2021 and a 19.9 in 2021
- Long strider who eats up cushion quickly with decent lateral agility
- Demonstrates good overall versatility - has lined up as an H-Back, as a wideout, inline and in the slot
- Catches well in traffic, shields the ball from defenders with his frame, and holds on despite being hit. Will fully extend, snatch, and stay in bounds.
- Has enough upper-body strength to fight initial jam at the line of scrimmage and has the speed and athleticism to burn defenders challenging him.
- Catches with his hands away from his frame. Strong hands to pull down the contested reception.
- Has good hand-eye coordination and body control to turn and adjust to poorly thrown balls.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Might not be fast enough to be a consistent deep threat down the seam against NFL competition
- Doesn't break many tackles or do enough after contact
- Not particularly explosive isn't a quick twitch athlete
- Runs only average routes and tends to round them off
- Has had a number of concentration drops
- Is a bit high-hipped and slow to get rolling. Frame limits upside as a blocker and may struggle in the pro's in the run game
Scouting Report: Summary
Greg Dulcich is a decent NFL prospect who offers good skills in the receiving game. He offers a mismatch when paired up against linebackers and has some speed to stretch the defense. He has displayed the ability to make a number of big plays - but is limited as a blocker and often plays like a bulked-up wide receiver.Due to Dulcich's skill set being a little uneven we expect his ceiling to be the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft.
