Greg Olsen went in the first. You said outright you don't draft one in the first.

That one is on you, sport.

Sure, and it took him 2 teams and damn near 6 years before he started producing, then he went on a 5 year run of being really good and then he got hurt.........so keep going

 

Sure he played like a first round TE 6 years after he was drafted and on another team. Thanks for highlighting my point

 

Again go back through the list posted above, do the research of how productive they were they first 4 years and then if they did start producing what year was that?  On the large majority of these dudes it takes years to get acclimated to the nfl for whatever reason.  Sorry bro thats just the facts

 

And its funny you bring up Hockerson as some success story when his team traded him to a division rival.  Thats how much they thought of him and to date he still hasnt done jack poo sans one season

I like Warren alot and could see him as our pick if the defense didn't have so many holes. With a deep class of TEs, I would go defense in the first 3 picks and then consider offense and special teams. Yeah I might draft a kicker in the later rounds.

Does he not know you don't draft a TE in the first?

Yep, not going to lie.... During whatever draft it was (2021?) I was hoping with all the football gods power that Pitts would fall to the Panthers...... Glad he didn't and he's turn the falcons against themselves.

Im just a Uber TE want to control the middle of field believer. But looking at the last 20-25 years, its best to past on 1st round TE and focus on 3rd and 4th rounds where it feels like half the starters came from. 

This is a great year for TE and one should make to Panthers mid-round picks, I want that Miami TE Elijah Arroyo! I thought months ago he could make it 3rd maybe 4th, but he's killing interviews and making teams move his name up. 57 would be lucking to still have him unselected.

Evan Engram being released could be interesting 

 

He's shouldn't cost 30 or 20 million per.

 

This is the some realistic player the player should sign form all the release&trade pool. 

 

Dave talked about how a TE would fully maximize his playbook..... this is the player, btw he doesn't count against comp picks since he was released, but there are some injury issues nothing too crazy I think....

    • the one thing this post has suprised me with is how much support there still is for young.  i dont understand why.  we had qbs before him that went to superbowls that lost support way quicker.  thr only qb we had had that started any number of games that played worse than young is clausen.  allen and moore played better and yet people still support him makes 0 sense to me
    • Again, can’t have a serious discussion if constantly wading through hyperbole. And you say that’s not really what was meant, but I tried to at one point get some folks to concede that he was physically capable of throwing a football 20yds just so we could get to a real discussion and they stuck with it. So I’m not sure your characterization is entirely accurate.
    • And this is his third year. As far as people not understanding things, I am not sure people accept how difficult it is to remake yourself from the ground up. Which he absolutely has to do to compete successfully at the NFL level.  He takes a step forward with the footwork and a step back when he is stressed and reverts to what always worked for him before. I will say it yet again, anyone that reached a level of success with their self taught technique but needed to rebuild to break through the limitations that imposed, will understand this. I don’t care what specific activity it is the same challenge. Muscle memory and comfort level fight against the new moves you are trying to train yourself to do without thinking.  He is there. There is a ceiling with his technique that is too low for the NFL. He has to retrain himself.  We are in the third year and I guess we are supposed believe that he will be so good  when he finally gets to where the new will be second nature, that we have to wait (how many more years) for him to finish doing it. If he ever finishes.  The sad fact is he will not succeed at the NFL level with his horrible college footwork and compensation moves like the tippy toe drop backs. He just won’t.  If he can’t put that on the table for us, we would be foolish to not seek an alternative plan.
