Yea I’d rather just draft a dude with a late pick than trade for a guy we know sucks.

Why not both? Jt plus Mayer plus a late round te. 

Thomas is hopefully gone forever. Tremble is ok but unspectacular and a fa. 

We actually have the luxury of many late round picks. Trade 1 for Mayer. Draft a te. 

Still leaves us with 7 picks and a stocked young te room

So basically draft 2 TEs?

Cough cough don't draft a blocking TE high.

No idea about the personal reasons but this guy is a TE #2 max. I would rather have that on a rookie deal. On the flip side could he be worse than Thomas at anything?

We could also draft a guy of that caliber on a much smaller contract deal.

That's what I meant when I said would rather have that kind of player on a rookie deal. Vs a guy coming off of it is what I didn't say.

Again, if the team wasn't in such need of meaningful talent then overpaying a little for an older blocking TE the coach could trust wouldn't be unusual. Giving up more than 1 pick is just dumb given the situation for us tho and there is still repairing what that last cap guy did before they can hit normal opperating IMO. Spending money like the peak Saints with so little talent was not a good combo.

He’s on a rookie deal for two more years. Mayer would be a great pairing with Sanders. 
 

Mayer is 23yo. We’re rebuilding. It makes a lot of sense.

Or just draft a guy with that pick and get 4 years on a rookie contract. Nothing about this team screams close to contending. Just build with young healthy guys who have a larger windows on rookie contracts. This guy was drafted in the 2nd so I'm guessing they don't let him walk for a 5th like some are assuming. A blocking TE shouldn't be in the first 3 or 4 picks with this team and it's lopsided needs.

Here’s what we’d be on the hook for the next two years:

We won’t find much cheaper options. He’s a pretty perfect compliment to Sanders. He’d be what Ian Thomas was supposed to be all these years. 
 

I’m for it. I’d give up a 5th and 6th for him. Those are likely fringe roster spots anyway.

Why not let the Raiders release him? He's been mediocre at best and they probably would rather draft a backup to Bowers with upside. If we actually want to improve the TE room, Mayer sure doesn’t seem to be the way to do it.

Mayer easily clears Tremble imo. We likely can’t resign Tremble for less than we would be paying Mayer after a trade. Win win in my opinion. 
 

Sanders/Mayer TE room is easily our best since Greg.

      One of the dumbest suggestions ever

      By Davidson Deac II · Posted

      I don't really care as much about athleticism and arm strength.  While Murray might be better in that regard, I think Bryce has enough of both to do well in the NFL. The main reason this trade reference is silly is the money and the fact that Murray has been around a long while and hasn't proven that he can perform consistently when the game is on the line.  Bryce has shown that he can play well in the clutch (in the few opportunities he has had).

      If Bryce can continue the level of play he showed after the benching, then there's a good shot we at least compete to win the division. Tampa is a solid team but even last year in our week division they went 10-7 and will be on their 4th OC in as many years. The Saints are a mess and are in a mist of a half rebuild half still trying to compete mode and will probably be starting a rookie QB. The Falcons are a wild card as they have a really good offense but are we really crowning Michael Penix as a franchise QB after just 3 games?  The only thing I want out of this season is for Bryce to come out and without a shadow of a doubt prove he's our franchise QB. If that happens then most of the fanbase would be happy and I believe we'd be in a good place record wise at the end of the season. Maybe falling just short of winning the division with a chance to sneak in as a wild card team.
