Draft: Tight Ends (there are some good ones)

We need one and this draft has some super interesting ones:

Brycen Hopkins (love, love, love)

Cole Kmet

 

Other notables:

https://thedraftnetwork.com/prospect-rankings (sort by position)

Hunter Bryant

Thaddeus Moss

Jared Pinkney (another one I'm a big fan of)

--

Overall, I see at least 5 legit TE prospects in this class, 2 in particular with instant plug and start ability both as blockers and receivers. 

Would not be opposed RD2-4.

Only if they can also play LT in the first 3 rounds

Given who's on the roster, C, OG, TE, LT, DT, DE, LB, S, CB are all huge needs.   Wills, Wirfs, or Thomas are obvious targets R1 but I don't want to waste another 2-6 on a OT when we just used 2 picks on tackles on it last draft.  Not to mention what we do with a bunch of super young and promising 3-4 EDGE talent.  Honestly, this draft has become a new strategy:

Grab the best talent available minus RB and OLB.  This is the most holes I've seen since Tremors.

“Cold my ass! It’s dead! We killed it! Fuuuuuuug You!”

This btw is what opposing pass rushers will be saying over Cam’s corpse if we don’t fix the oline Yesterfuggingday.

If we would have taken a top-end TE in one of the past 3 drafts like I've been wanting, this wouldn't be an issue.  Alas, the need for a TE has been overtaken by other pressing matters.  I'm thinking 4th round at the earliest, possibly 3rd if a steal is available.  Hopefully by then we will have selected an OL and/or DL and can afford our first luxury pick of the draft.

It's still early, but this wouldn't be a very stong TE class.  The 2018 class where I was pounding the table for a TE in the first 3 rounds, was solid year.  We got Ian Thomas in the 4th, but I still think we need a compliment or even an slight upgrade.  I was a huge Dallas Goedert fan, but the Eagles grabbed him a few picks before us.  I doubt we would have taken him if he would have lasted anyway.   Why? One word, Hurney.

Loved that movie. Can't remember the second one (I think I liked it), but anything after that was poo.

I would like to see what Thomas has with a coaching staff that want stash him for 5 years. 

Thomas needs a running mate. I'm nearly certain that Olsen is just waiting to see Cam's fate.  Even if Greg is here one more year (and it looking less likely) we still need more depth.  I'm so over Manhertz.

Thomas and Samuel need to take turns on Samuel's JUGS machine!

    • You do, the guy who doesn’t appear to grasp projection.  as the entire board knows, I do in fact, take positions.  The position here I have taken is that Bryce Young is a weak bottom tier starting QB, without NFL starting QB tools, that we must move on from.  
    • The OP for one. Asserting that people blamed Bryce for the loss in the title of the thread. That was not the prevailing sentiment at the time this thread was created. Very much a minority thing, I don’t remember but maybe one person if that, putting it on Bryce as the main reason. Troll thread. Did a good job too. Look at the pages.  Someone counting up the draft picks as 10 on offense and 10 on defense or whatever the number was, today or yesterday - of which the offensive ones were heavily 1s and 2s and the defensive picks were heavily day 3 and declaring that proof that the offense wasn’t favored like people claim. The obvious neglect we watched for two years. I spent time refuting that bullshit because someone needed to.  People saying we are bad horrible people and hate poor lil Bryce for no reason, as if it is a personal thing. Constantly.   Along the same lines is people saying we non Bryce fans would rather lose than have him play well and the team wins. That we are mad when the team wins   Point illustrated.
