NFL | Marlin Klein declares for draft Sat Jan 10, 01:02 PM

University of Michigan TE Marlin Klein has declared for the 2026 NFL Draft.

Footballguys view: Klein is an athletic freak who can be a threat with his size/speed combination. Measuring in at 6-feet, 6-inches, and 250 pounds, Klein can rip the seam and beat defenders with surprising speed. He's also big enough to block effectively and uses his frame to box out smaller defenders.
