Yes absolutely if we see a better option over Hurst in the draft pull the trigger. The rookie might not take the starting sport week one, but that doesn't make it a bad pick.

And this is where we get to the same conclusion..

Why would it be a better option?? What are you basing that on?? 
 

The only player who has been a number 1 TE what in the Pros is Hurst.. Not any rookie you draft has done anything in the NFL and still needs to go thru the transition that Hurst has done already..

Honestly as soon as you brought up Kyle pitts having a big impact for the Falcons you should have stopped.. Lmao

You're Kylie Pitts had 300 yards in his rookie season? Why do I remember that differently?

Someone double check Sub Zeros stats if you have the time.

I was remembering him having a good season, but 300 damn yards is terrible. That's like brain dead for a guy built like an NBA player.

Did he?? Beyond the fact you’re talking about a guy drafted top 5.. Has he really made a big impact for the falcons??? They run the ball more then anybody.. Their passing offense isn’t even in the top 25 ..

1st year 28 rec.. 300 yards 2 tds???

2nd year 68 rec 1000 yards 1 TD??

Solid 2nd season (yards and rec.) but 1 TD is big impact??

 

You have those seasons reversed. He had a 1,000 yd rookie season. Last year was when he was hurt half the year.

You're talking about Hurst in his prime being seen as Mayers, but Hurst is past his prime.

ILB, NT, and CB are the biggest needs in my mind right now

 

If Horn or Jackson miss any appreciable playing time, we have… Henderson and Taylor?  Anyone remember the Tampa game fourth quarter?  I still have PTSD whenever I think of that game.

We need another credible corner and this is a pretty strong draft for corners.

#1 WR.

#1 TE.

Edge rusher.

CB for depth.

Basically you don't start a season without a #1 TE and #1 WR and expect to do well on offense. We'll struggle until you get that fixed even if the rookie QB plays fairly well. It's not optional if you want to win. This is a passing league.

The chances of drafting anyone who will displace Hurst or Thielen/Chark as #1s is slim to nothing. That's why they are here

A CB or edge in round 2 would not hurt my feelings.  Or ILB.,  I think CB is a big need that not many are talking about.

I still think we sign one more player before the draft.

I wouldn't mind getting a TE early so he can be ready after Hursts contract is up

I'm ready for the next level of middle/inside linebacker player this team has had since, well, always.
