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.

      PFF Best Rookies so far: Two Panthers

      By mav1234 · Posted

      Saw this show up in my new feed. Nice to see a couple of our rookies making it into the top 5 so far, even if it is a pff measure... From https://www.pff.com/news/nfl-top-15-rookies-week-9-2025 ... 4. TE Mitchell Evans, Carolina Panthers (78.7) Evans struggled in the Panthers’ tight win over the Packers, finishing with a 41.8 PFF overall grade — third worst among tight ends this week. He was not targeted in the game and played only one snap in pass protection. He did log 15 run-blocking snaps, and although he earned a 68.9 PFF run-blocking grade in zone looks (seven snaps), his 39.0 mark in gap schemes (second worst for the week) dragged him down to a 46.6 PFF run-blocking grade overall — sixth worst for the week. Despite seeing zero targets over his past two games, Evans still leads the Carolina tight end group with a 74.3 PFF receiving grade. He has caught all nine of his targets for 90 yards, six first downs and two touchdowns. Evans also leads the Panthers’ tight end group in PFF run-blocking grade (72.2). He has recorded a 20.5% positive play rate across 175 snaps.  5. WR Tetairoa McMillan, Carolina Panthers (78.6) McMillan had a better day against the Packers, recording four catches for 46 yards. Most of that production came in the first quarter via two 16-yard catches — one of which he snatched from Carrington Valentine’s hands, who was in perfect position to break up the pass. McMillan accounted for three first downs on the day, although Green Bay was able to limit his impact after the catch, holding him to 0.8 yards after the catch per reception. McMillan now has 41 catches for 558 yards — a top-15 mark. He is also tied for second with 19 explosive gains of 15-plus yards. Three of McMillan’s catches against the Packers came between the numbers, bringing him to 22 for 318 yards and 19 first downs (tied for second most) this season. He owns a 26.1% threat rate and a 76.6 PFF receiving grade between the numbers. He also ranks in the top 10 in explosive gains (10) and yards after the catch per reception (5.5) within that area of the field.
