IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) – If you set out to build a prototype tight end, you might very well end up with Iowa’s C.J. Fiedorowicz. The 6-foot-7, 265-pound junior seems poised for a breakout season. He played in all 13 games as a true freshman in 2010 but did not catch a pass. He didn’t do much to distinguish himself early last season, but caught 12 passes for 105 yards and three touchdowns in the last four games. He became a receiver that quarterback James Vandenberg could depend on and he also improved his blocking. He finished the season with 16 catches for 167 yards.
