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.

    • I mentioned this in another thread but i'll restate it here. Keeping a wait and watch approach and passing on the 5th year option kinda makes sense like obliquely, but in practice neither the team or the player wants it. The player doesn't want to risk injury when he could have at least another year locked up, and the team doesn't want to risk the player blowing up in their fourth year and holding the team over the barrel. If you're the QB and you're playing that well you obviously test the free agent market, and you'd probably be bitter about it as well.  modern first round qb contracts are essentially 3 year deals with the option of an additional 2 to put downward pressure on contract extensions. You either pick up the 5th year, extend with a new contract, or move on.  just sitting tight on the fourth year isn't a practical choice for any of the parties. 
    • The point was Miles Sanders wasn't just a guy in Philly. He was at least as good as Chuba has been in Carolina. 
    • I have not been impressed with our pass blocking since at least 2022. Still remember watching Darnold live against the Seahawks when we were dominating them in the run game and we still allowed far too much pressure on him regardless. It has not gotten much better since. In fairness to this year's unit, they have been hit by injuries. Oftentimes, even a mediocre overall unit is better than a stacked one if the former stays healthy throughout the entire season. Constant shuffling only means a much greater likelihood someone will blow their assignment and that's all it takes for a sack or worse.
