Hunter Henry gets high praise from scout.

"He's the most complete tight end to come out in years. He's a legitimate first-round pick."

When I hear things said like this, it really gets my attention. G-man is going to have some tough, but good decisions to make. Depending on how the pieces fall, if not the first, I have a feeling that we just may trade up in the second round to take one Henry or the other...this one especially.

I was getting bashed for this pick, just shows ppl argue just to be right instead of doing research.

i hope he doesn't get too much more praise or attention.

haha true, hope GB goes for a DT with Raji out. Also the Patriots are going back to the 2 TE set, we can follow suit but our offense is going to much more dynamic and physical than one from 2011.

the only thing that kinda worries me is when greg olsen was on the combine watching the TEs he said he wasn't really impressed with any of them and said that none stood out. then they showed a clip of henry missing a catch.

Id rather go DE but as I've said before, I really don't see this as a luxury pick. We need to evolve offensively and we have to make sure we have an elite TE going forward when Greg hangs it up in 10 years or so.

    • I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.  
    • Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.  
    • The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
