2004 All-Pac 10 Honorable Mention...81 career catches ranks Byrd 24th on USC's all-time receiving list...Caught just 29 passes as a senior for 306 yards in 12 games...In nine games as a junior, Byrd made 37 grabs for 384 yards with three touchdowns...At 6-3 and 260 pounds, Byrd is a big body...Has played in a pro-style offense and has plenty of big-game experience...A solid all-around player who showed flashes of brilliance in college but was never dominant...Considering that this year's tight end class is the best in recent memory in regard to quality and depth, Byrd may have to wait until the second day to hear his name called.
