Ohio State lost TWO NFL Draft picks at tight end… but the Buckeyes may have quietly rebuilt one of the deepest TE rooms in the Big Ten.

In today's Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down the full spring progress report for Ohio State's tight ends — including Nate Roberts' breakout spring, the emergence of transfer additions Hunter Welcing and Mason Williams, and why Arthur Smith's offense could heavily feature this group in 2026.

We also discuss:

• Nate Roberts taking over as TE1

• Hunter Welcing's versatility

• Mason Williams' rise during spring

• Arthur Smith's use of tight ends

• Bennett Christian's role moving forward

• Depth concerns behind the top group

• Why this room could still be elite
