I wouldn't mind him but he isn't a great blocker. Hurst is the total package blocking and catching. That's what we want in this offense. Does nobody remember Olsen and Shockey. Cam's best year passing? Also we haven't shown any interest in him so that usually means no.

  You keep proclaiming 2011 as Cams best passing season? This is a joke right?

Nope look at it 2015 was a fluke with that offense. If u got back to 2011 he had 21 passing tds and 14 rushing tds. He passed for over 4,000 yds never done that. Also he had completion percentage of 60  percent, and that was his second best.

So passing yards and completely ignore INTs. What does rushing TDs have do with anything? I would think the 14 extra TDs PASSING that he had in 2015 would be more relevant. But hey, whatever helps the agenda, have at it.

Can't wait to see your reaction when they say Hurst is the 24th pick. You think Sanjay/Ace Aladdin is bad, you will be in for a rude awakening.

 

What reaction? I'll shrug and that'll be it. Then I'll hope that he becomes as good as Olsen and that we don't miss a beat when Olsen hangs up the cleats.

People like you struggle to understand how real fans think. We always ultimately hope that the moves we make prove to be what's best for the team even if they're not the moves we would've like to have seen at the time.

You don't understand. Cam's second best passing season is his best because his "best" was a fluke.

Hurst makes sense.  He can make an immediate impact giving us a versatile offense with two tight end sets.  He's tough, he can block and has very good speed and wants to prove himself - he ain't messing around at 25 years old.  He will immediately benefit our offense more than any other offensive player available when we pick.  I looove Moore, but the more I think about it, with the additions we've made at WR in the offseason (a very effective band aid) we will be better at WR next year.  A two tight end set will benefit McCaffrey a lot.

Thank you. Finally someone else gets it!

Why hold such reservations about Hurst? Dude is a tool box tight end, he does everything well, he is used as an h back, tight end, slot receiver, tackle, etc. Greg Olsen is an injury prone 33 year old that has threatened the team with retirement. Taking the best tight end in the draft by a fairly large margin makes a ton of sense, it's not like he wouldn't see the field, he would see a ton of snaps.

If Harold Landry falls to us and we draft Hurst I might drink straight through Sunday

I'll be right there with you. Landry is my favorite player projected to go in the back half of the first round.

The issue with Hurst is his age, and its a legitimate concern. If you draft him in the 1st he'll be 30 yo when his 5th year is up. Then you have to decide if at his age you're going to pay, what will likely be Hurst' only and largest contract. Paying top dollar for a 30 yo TE is far from ideal. So do you draft someone in the 1st who you may only have for 5 years??

      Greg Cosell: Bryce Young is a complimentary piece

      By *FreeFua* · Posted

      As far as elite/elevate talent QB’s It’s Allen Mahomes Jackson and Burrow that’s it.  Then we have tiers and those can be debated all day Dak is a good QB but I know this board would want him out of Charlotte if he was the QB here. 2 playoff wins in 10 years. Justin Herbert no playoff wins. Threw 4 interceptions in last years playoff game. 23 TD passes last year. 20 the year below and 25 the year before that. This board loves stats without context and these stats aren’t saying they’re much above complimentary  Kyler Murray isn’t good. I’m not sure how he made this list.  Caleb Williams, Trevor Lawrence both benefiting from some real good offensive coaches right now. They’re both complimentary pieces until proven otherwise  I like Jordan Love. Always have. I wanted to draft him but he isn’t a superstar.  CJ Stroud hasn’t been much better than Bryce after his rookie season. After that Bears game year 2 his numbers very similar to Bryce I will say I think Drake Maye is well on his way to becoming the next top tier QB if I had to pick one from this entire list. I’d also say Baker Mayfield is a damn good QB and I’d take him over most of those guys not in the elite category  Now if you want to debate tools and which QB’s possess tools to put them in higher tiers that’s a completely different discussion. Most QB’s on your main list all have those physical tools that will keep you thinking he’ll become the next top tier QB. They’ll sprinkle in a “wow” play or two a game. Bryce will never look that way. Young’s game at its peak will physically always look different and I think that’s where most people struggle when it comes to seeing how Young’s can be successful in the league  All QB’s need a team around them. I think the Bills are failing Josh Allen much like the Panthers did Cam. Beane and McDermott using same blueprint with Bills team. Josh Allen hasn’t had much in terms of WR’s and it’s ultimately costing them when it matters the most
