Our third and fourth rounders could prove to be the strength of this draft. Hope not-but if our first two picks reach their potential, it could be the first layer of the foundation.

 

And the best running back in college football--of course, if you defend the 3 WRs and focus on Brooks, his success could have been because he was not the first, second, third, or fourth concern.  We shall see.

Just dreaming…Not  having a #1 pick this year we have several lower round picks that could really prove to be finds. Hopeful.

Funny enough Tremble was great in Norte Dame

Comes to NFL sucks clown face 

I wouldn't lump him in with the bad...he's actually been pretty solid.  He's done well when asked to make things happen.  He's been on pretty awful teams and isn't probably a TE1, but he's pretty solid in many respects.  Some great TDs on limited snaps and targets.

I'm not bullish on Tremble for 2024, but it's a mischaracterization to say he's one of the bad apples here.  He's very much a Trey Burton-esque dude.  

Anyhoo, here's to hoping we landed something in Sanders.  I said before, I'll say again, I see a better blocking Evan Engram when I watch him.

Actually, he was considered a weak TE for ND because he was almost exclusively used as a blocker. They used him in a lot of plays designed specifically for him. Usually with him motioning across the backfield when the ball was snapped. They rarely threw him the ball. That was the concern with teams drafting him. No one knew if he could catch.

I think Brooks fits in well with our 12 man offense. LBs will have to watch the TEs and Brooks, with his quickness he should be able to reach the 2nd level easily and have the potential for big runs. Plus he can catch the ball out of the backfield. I expect success from him receiving in the flats. I think we will also see Hubbard have a career season too. The contrast of their running styles could work well together.

Tremble and Thomas are guys who would be trying to cling to a roster as a third TE on most rosters. That's honestly just reality.

Sanders is the highest ceiling TE we’ve had since Greg, very excited about him. I hope Tremble can become a solid second TE, but don’t disagree with you.

    • Maybe a bit of a homer take but I can't give us a grade lower than A.   Freeling was arguably the best LT prospect in the draft.  His athletic ability is off the chart and at 6'7" that can move.  It was a no brainer pick.   Hunter's key word is Violence. Putting him next to Brown should scare an offensive coordinator. These two give Scourton and Phillips plenty of chances to get one on one opportunities. Brazzell, another tall receiver with sprinter speed.  Our WR room is filled with tall talented WR.  Brazzell is going to give us a WR that can take to roof off the defense.  Basically Jimmy Horn with size. W. Lee III has a nickname of the Blanket. (heard this on the Beleav podcast with J. Stewart)  What a great name.  A great value in the 5th round. Hecht A strong, fast and extremely smart center. Many had him listed as the best center in the draft.  He's most likely a starter sooner than later. Wheatley A good safety in round 5.  Someone who could see playing time.   Kuwatch  I love this pick.  At minimum he will be a key piece on special teams and with some good coaching he'll see some packages where he'll play.  His down piece is he doesn't stay up in the running game.  Good coaching will fix this.  He reminds me a bit of A.J. Klein.   All these picks were great value.  I believe everyone of them were graded higher than the pick we took them.   Dan Morgan is IMO doing a great job turning this team into a good team with great depth.
    • Moton is a class act.  
    • Sure, that is possible. That’s what, an extra 55 yards a game on average and 7 more TDs? What if he’s just 15th?  I imagine they would extend him in that situation due to the belief that he’ll keep trending up. maybe a 3 year contract to prove he can be top 10? Sounds like a Tepper plan.
