What are you guys opinion about a TE in the 4th or 5th round..

[WOW!!]

I wouldn't take one earlier then 4th in this weak class.. But there are some interesting players in those rounds.. And this is such a weird offseason so drafting a TE even with IAn finally getting a shot isn't out of bounds..

This looks like samoan Big Swoll bones...

Nice routes and he blocks a little..

Had a drop problem this year but he has a football lineage..

He doesn't block at all but looks has hands and runs like Kittle..

[WOW!!]

Charlotte kid dad is the best WR ever.. He is more of a H-back to me..

The other LSU TE is a WR turn TE.. He can't block at all right now and need a few years of body changing..

Late round pick.. But he is a tough guy. 

Big not a blocker but is a red zone threat..

[WOW!!]

Small school sleeper..

This seems like a pretty weak TE class, but that doesn't mean there won't be some good TEs come out of it. Moss is probably the most interesting one to watch given the Brady connection and he's the uncommon college TE these days that's coming into the draft pretty much NFL ready as a blocker. Most of these "TEs" these days are basically coming into the draft as jumbo slot WRs.

Most of these guys are big slot WR.  They don't seem to block for poo... The 2 Samoans thoe did line up Inline and blocked a little bit.. O'Grady did as well.. But the rest you seem right about.

I'm eyeing up this guy. Probably the best TE in the draft but might take a day 2 selection to get him.

If we take one, I won't complain, but we have some other really big needs. It basically comes down to if there's someone sitting there in the 4th that should have gone much higher... well, you grab that guy.

Anything past the middle of the third round you really should be taking the highest rated player on your board.

I think we need 2 DTs, 2 CBs, a DE and an IOL. TE would be a luxury pick this year

[MHS831]

TE is a position that you go get a stud when all other needs are met, in my opinion.  You do not see many teams in rebuild mode grabbing that franchise TE first.  I like the 2-dimensional TEs because it keeps the defense honest. 

I think they have looked at Bryant, but with the latest signing DeValve, I do not think they will go TE in this draft.

Thanks for these posts with the embedded videos, WOW.  They make shopping much easier---during a very dark time.

Panthers should look at Collin Johnson from Texas in the 4th or 5th round. He's a hell of a blocker and could end up being a TE in the pros if he bulked up a bit

[stbugs]

Wouldn’t touch TE this year. Not a good year and I’d bet that the next WR available is much better BPA/potential.

i swear some of you think every pick is going to be an impact starter. We did this a few years ago with Thomas, it's his time to shine. Not a priority.
