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.

      I think damn near every coach has a bad record for producing QBs because so few QBs are successful. Drake Maye looks legit, how was UNC before with Mack Brown? Howell hasn’t done anything, I don’t know if he was responsible for Mitch or if he came afterwards but that was a bust. Air Raid Texas Tech produced Mahomes and not much else. Allen was out in Wyoming, Burrow is the only LSU one and he was coach O, Lamar was Louisville with no one else. Riley might be the only coach with a defect track record with Hurts, Murray, Baker, and now Caleb. It’s why you draft the player not the school/coach.

      I know it's conspiracy theory but part of this has always felt by design as part of the entertainment aspect of the NFL since the team was forced to be sold. Enter Tepper as the narcissist, impulsive hedge fund owner relying on analytics over an ownership group. His impulsive actions on full display the first 5 years burning through multiple QBs, 4 HCs, 2 GMs. Everything trying to find the newest shortcut to success.  Houston needed a new image quickly after the Watson debacle, and Carolina has an owner willing to ignore football guys and go with his analytics. Here comes the S2, along with tons of media coverage that the Holy Grail for finding QBs has been found and Bryce with a damn near perfect score. Then Bryce goes 1st overall, has one of, if not the worst rookie QB seasons ever, and the S2 all but disappears from being mentioned again. It’s all just a bit too convenient for my liking.
