It's honestly hard for me to get excited for him. As sexy as his measurables are, he's still a project TE who has problem running routes and has questionable hands. 

Yeah he is like a bigger version of Tremble. We need a pass catching TE.

As far as TEs go, I am more inclined to either sign a FA or draft one in the mid to late rounds than I am to draft a TE high. Damn near every good TE throughout the league was a post 3rd round pick or didn't get good until their second team/contract.

It's probably the hardest position in the NFL to play and there is really only two or three truly Great TEs in the entire NFL right now (Kelce, Andrews, and Kittle) and none were high picks. The difference in talent between TE 1 to 3 is bigger than the difference between TE 3 to 15.

The position is such a crapshoot. I just assume sign Schultz or Gesicki and have average play rather than sit on a prospect and hope he pans out to be average one day.

Alright, UGA fan here. 
 

darnell is a fuging monster. Like gronk lvls of cheating with what you could do with him against different packages. 
 

but he’s the insane physical freak who I’m afraid is never going to be healthy in the pros. 
 

he was CONSTANTLY dinged up at UGA. not necessarily bad enough to miss the game, but bad enough where he would just run block all game or something. 
 

he’s got Julio Jones syndrome where he’s SO athletic he’s like a Ferrari: yeah he’s dominant but it’s just spraying oil all over the road and it costs 10k to fix the alignment.

u think the Jason Peter potential comps have any weight? I wouldn't mind taking him if we could groom him behind Moton.

Tremble is inconsistent and doesn't look like he'll ever be a great receiving option. Thomas is a vet that is nothing more than a JAG no matter who is QB. Thomas needs to be let go and Tremble should be a 3rd stringer at best.

The offense was inconsistent and didnt get them involved.Nothing wrong with our TE Corp that throwing to them wouldn't fix.

      Veteran CB trying out for Panthers

      I like Jaycee a lot and appreciate his leadership but to say he's above Ramsey right now is based on hopium let's be realistic. He's got a great deal to prove this season. I’m hoping to see that he firmly establishes himself amongst his peers.

      PFF raves about our draft. The best class in the whole draft?

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      It’s amazing how simple it is. When you are winning 2-7 games for 7 straight years, you’d think people would understand that just drafting some starters isn’t poo unless they are above average NFL starters. Justin Jefferson and Jamar Chase started their rookie years like Legette did so we got an elite WR in the 2024 draft. Luke was a rookie starter just like Wallace. Damn we basically got a Kuechly and Jefferson last year. Bravo Dan Morgan!!!

      I didn’t even say they would be starters. I don’t think Legette will be and Coker was not drafted. Coker chose to sign with us because our WR room gave him a chance to start even though we drafted a guy in the 1st. That should tell you something when Coker chose to come to Carolina even after we took Legette. We drafted and signed guys to potentially replace Sanders, who isn’t a starter yet over Tremble) and Wallace. Go look at our other drafts since Rhule. We had tons of rookie contribution from all of our recent classes. Why, because our overall talent sucked and we needed bodies. Go look at PFR. Here’s some of our players who “started” for a year: TMJ, Mingo, BC, Ian Thomas, Jermaine Carter, Dennis Daley, YGM and Roy. That’s what Legette and Wallace are right now although unless TMac bombs, Legette has kind of already lost his spot. We’ve had shitty drafts since 2018 and every single one has contributed at least two guys who’ve started so 2024 is tied for last right now and we just had a draft where we took 3 more players who play the same position as 3 of our top 4 picks in 2024 but somehow I’m saying that the 2024 draft class is good? Nope, the 2024 draft class was bad and our team is still in the low enough talent quadrant that lots of rookie contribute in our holes until we replace them. Been the same story since 2018 and accelerated as the old solid vets retired/move on.
