I won't, the guy is the best TE in this year's draft. Greg Cosell raves about him. 

And he’ll be 30 at the end of his rookie contract if he’s a 1st round pick. You’re talking about a player who will likely be on the decline by the time he signs his second NFL contract. I think he’s probably the most NFL ready of all the TEs in this draft but he probably should be at 25 years old. I still think Mark Andrews is the best TE prospect.

That would give us enough time to get another one...

Well that explains it.

I don't believe it, but stranger things have happened. It may be a smokescreen. That being said, if they believe that Kirk has the skills to diversify his route tree, then maybe they think he's the next best coming of OBJ. Seriously, some people have nicknamed him Baby Beckham. I just don't know about that. But who knows?

If we draft a 25 year old TE in the 1st I’m going to be displeased.

That’s been my point with Hurst.  Don’t get me wrong. But you use a 1st round pick to hope to get a once in a decade player. Being 29 at the time his first contact is over doesn’t leave you much.  And he has only played TE for 2 years. Don’t get me wrong. Seems like he would be a great professional in the locker room.  I watched some tape on him this morning.  But I think he falls due to his age.

Voth is right, Reid is a reach there and Davenport isnt worth the pick.  Move back is still the preferred choice if we can IMO.

The way things are going Rudolph wont even be available.  Move back a little would be nice assuming we can pick the right players.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      By Panthers Addict · Posted

      I do think the rating is fair given how this unit hasn’t proven it with production. I understand you have to rank off production, not potential. However, our unit is also in a position to make this rating look foolish a year from now. We have 4 guys in the WR/TE room who all could legitimately take the next step this year, and catapult our rank. A guy under a lot of people’s radar after we took Tet, Jalen Coker. Mark my words, he will become the star of this room, and be the heir to Thielen.

      Barnwell - Ranking WR, TE, RB Groups in NFL

      Exactly. You’d think 2-7 wins a year (in a 17 game season no less) since 2017 is going to keep us bottom tier. Every year we say the same poo like we haven’t been a bad team the past 7 years. Until we prove we aren’t a bottom dweller, that’s where we’ll stay ranked. God forbid we have OL injuries like 2016.

      Breakout 2025 Candidates

      What I love and hate about this team is it’s more filled with potential breakout players than ever before. JT, XL, Coker, Smith-Wade, Ikem, Trevin… and even Bryce are all guys I could legitimately see taking the next step. But the problem with having so many of those guys is that team success somewhat relies on them taking that step, and some are bound not to. That being said, I’m cautiously optimistic given our softer schedule, the way the offense clicked late last year, and the direction we finally have at GM, coach, and QB. Could see us as a sneaky playoff team.
