We need better pass catching tight ends and a shifty slot player. 

RD 1: Michael Mayer, TE - Notre Dame

RD 2(a): Best defensive front 7 player available

RD 2(b): Zay Flowers, WR - Boston College

Rock with Darnold/MC/3rd or later rookie QB in 2023 and if none emerge as a legitimate top 15 starter, push in all your chips for the 2024 QB class.

I mean, again, we're talking about a singular statistic that at the end of the day has no real bearing on performance overall. Though if you're so fascinated by this, again singular, statistic I can say that in Darnold's career, year by year, his YPA is much lower than Teddy's, if that even matters to you.

You do realize that one poor performance and that average could return to the mean, right?

This place is amazing.

People are appreciating that our QB isn't killing us, but there's a handful of posters that simply won't let that be.

"No, you're wrong and here's why". 

Just shake your head at our ignorance and move on with your day, good lord.

Not taking a TE in the 1st round ever.. The positional value doesn’t fit.. If you’re not taking a QB, OT, pass rusher, or CB early in the 1st then trade down..

This from the guy who still contended the trade was a great move even at the end of last season. You're either clinically insane or you like Darnold for other reasons.

I get it. I’ve seen many 1st rd TEs fail to meet expectations, but if you think there’s a Gronk or Kelce caliber talent, you would and should make that pick every time. 

Our biggest holes on offense are QB and TE, and if we’re picking where I think we will, the 1st round worthy QBs will be gone. I don’t mind drafting a project QB later in the draft, but I’d rather secure our other biggest need.

I’ve read Mayer is as close to Gronk potential at TE seen in a while. I’ve only watched two games of his and I believe it.

    • I know it's only been training camp and one preseason game, but I think T-Mac has already shown his floor to be exactly what I said about him in the pre-draft process. That his floor if he never improves his game, is as one of the best #2 WRs in the NFL, if not even still a low end #1 (i.e. a 25th-ish best WR in the league). I think it's safe to say he's already established himself as our #1, and there are only a small handful of teams in the league where I don't think he'd be their starting #2 WR in Week 1. Bengals (Higgins), Dolphins (Waddle), Eagles (Smith), Bucs (Godwin if healthy), Rams (Adams) are really the only teams where I think he'd be the #3 as a rookie in Week 1.  A few others like the Lions (Williams), Bears (Odunze), Seahawks (Kupp), Commanders (Deebo), where he'd be the 2b to start the season, just because they're vets and/or already have a year or two of experience with their team/QB. And even having said that, I think by year 2, he's better than every one of those players (And no, I'm not saying he's already going to be better than a prime version of Adams, just whatever he'll be at 33 next year), and same goes for Kupp, but that's more because it seems like his body might be quitting on him in a way that hasn't happened to Adams (yet).
    • Well to be fair, Horn not practicing right now to let his stitches heal up from a car accident isn't something that should be concerning.  Sure, you don't want him missing practice leading into the season, but it's one that once healed, won't have lingering affects or fear of re-injuring it, it was just bad luck.
    • Quality backups are absolutely important. This franchise has been plagued with depth problems. That said, there is a little bit of dismay that Mays can't beat out a 1-legged man, and all the talk going into the off-season was how BC would certainly be gone since he had position versatility.  In the end, it doesn't matter too awfully much, as I would be shocked to no end if Corbett makes it through the season. We know what we have in reserve, and that should surely be better than trying to sign random fat guys mid season to try and take over.
