Tyler Warren

I've changed my stance somewhat.

6'6 257. He's a Monstar. It would immediately give us a jolt of life especially in the redzone.

If he's there at 8 you take him.

That defense though... we've got our work cut out for us. It won't be solved in a single offseason though regardless.

I've been screaming about a day 1 or day 2 TE for YEARS!  So obviously I'm okay with this.  If we were only better off defensively and we weren't in the top 10, I would LOVE this possibility. 

I think Warren is good enough. If you are sold on Bryce being the guy, Warren is the type of talent you pick-up. Defense can be sorted out via free agency and later rounds. You can't get someone like Warren unless you draft them or trade for them; or if they retire and then unretire because their QB unretired and went to a different team.

I am not at all interested in even thinking about a WR or TE. Let's see how the combine goes. He would need a lot more than that film to impress me. For a guy who watches zero CFB I wasn't that impressed. Good hands but nothing screams top 10 pick with him to me. He looks solid but nothing more. That's what I want a 2nd round TE to look like, good physicals and hands but lacks meaningful separation.

If Kyle Juszczyk and Mark Andrews merged. That's what I see.

One thing that bothers me though is he is a massive guy with a huge wingspan, but yet he catches everything as if his hands are sewn to his chest. He's not going to be able to pull away from guys in the NFL or outbody everyone for a chest catch. He needs to use that wingspan.

Will say, a Warren choice could be favorable if you're considering the FA and mid-rounder landscape. 

FA on offense is simply bad this year.  There's no real multi-year investments.  Defense is much different.  There's also not exactly any true elevators on offense draft wise outside of Jeanty and Warren (I do like Loveland a lot).  So if one of the few blue chips is there...I mean...

And R2-3 has more impact options on defense. There's some REALLY appealing IDL (which is one of my top concerns) Tyleik Williams, Norman-Lott, Alfred Collins, & Philips to name a few.  Also at EDGE with Elijah Roberts, Tuimoloau, Ivey, Swinson, & Princely.  Not to mention Xavier Watts and others at DB.  

We'll be attacking FA first which will predicate a lot.  And we are likely looking heavy defense, it may make taking a blue chip offensive guy quite appealing depending on who we get.

2 of the most plugged in guys in the draft Media Daniel Jeremiah and Peter Schrager now have Warren as number 5 and 3 overall in their board

 

and Lance Zierline has Warren with a higher grade than Brock Bowers last year

 

id take Warren at a and be happy……..IF……..Went went hard and heavy on D in FA.  And went D with both picks in day 2, particularly DL/Edge with the depth of this crop.  Then I’d be fine with Warren.

    • I think everyone says Mike Evans because of size, but really they have different strengths and play styles.  Tmac is better on intermediate routes and not nearly as good at contested catches. 
    • At this point, it is criminal to go into the 2026 training camp/OTA's with XL penciled in as a #2 WR. The team must upgrade, either through free agency or the draft. If he cannot give 100% effort on significantly less snaps as a #4-6 WR(players like Tremayne have done that consistently) then I don't think you have a player worth rostering beyond the trade deadline. Offensively, we eventually have to upgrade to an NFL starting caliber C. It's been almost the length of time from Gross to Ikey since Kalil retired and we have below average to terrible C play. Love Mays as a BC-esque utility backup but he will never be an above average long term starting C.  The TE room is one of the worst in the NFL but it's a low usage position in this offense, so the investments are likely to be small, if any. I would never expect to see an elite TE in a Dave Canales offense. 100% agree on OL depth. We actually aren't bad there but BC will be gone, Mays is a UFA, Corbett is a UFA and Zavala has been both injured and bad. We have to bolster that depth again or resign guys like Mays and Corbett to keep that depth somewhat stable.
    • Bingo. The dude is a baller no doubt and I'd love to have him in a vacuum but like you said he's gonna fetch a haul so the only teams it really makes sense for are teams with an overall good roster who they feel an edge rusher like Crosby would out them over the top in terms of competing for SBs. I'd be looking st teams like the Pats, Bucs, Ravens, Seahawks, etc. It wouldn't be shocking to see him moved. He may be more valuable to a rebuilding team in the form of the draft assets he'd fetch than he is on the field. He should still have several more good years in the tank at 28 but by the time the Raiders can reasonably expect to rebuild he's gonna be on the decline.
