Griffin is a massive wide receiver who could grow into a receiving tight end in college. Also a top basketball prospect (18 points and 10 rebounds per game), Griffin caught 36 passes for 509 yards and 12 touchdowns in 2011. Griffin is a very physical blocker who enjoys dishing out punishment to opposing defensive backs. He has very good hand-eye coordination with the ability to not just go up and get the ball, but the ability to turn and adjust to a poorly thrown ball.
