There isn't 1 WR or TE that impresses me at 8 in this draft. it sounds like they will draft poorly again but that's not really surprising unfortunately.

I mean, Warren just put up one of the best seasons by a TE in a long time (ever, really), and that doesn't impress you?  Come on, Wally.

A slow blocking TE using his size in school? I don't get the hype. Looks like a 2nd or 3rd round great TE pick. I still haven't seen any workout info on him. My guess is he is a solid TE but not a 1st round pick at this point. Not impressed honestly.

The very first highlight in this video is him taking it to the house from the wildcat, but what really highlights his speed is #10 from Purdue. That's Kyndrich Breedlove, a track athlete that clocked multiple sub-4.5 40s as a high schooler back in 2019.

I'm not claiming that Warren is running a 4.4, but pulling away from a track guy as a TE is impressive.

Looks 4.7ish to me.

I got a feeling, there is something up with Icky. This is going under-radar, but it needs to be watched with Hawkeyes. 

 

My theory is there are a few plans, the main one is to replace Motown with Ickey. Shock the huddle with 3rd or 2nd round LT pick that the group of OL Coaches(fyi there are 3) want as their vision of LT. Icky is better fit and RT are cheaper to pay.

So a starting LT for Bryce from the 2nd or 3rd round? That sounds risky or do you mean we take one this year expecting him to start in '26?

If that were the case why not take Campbell at 8? I mean you want the best LT then he will most likely be the bpa.

I think the plan is to see if a top talent falls to 8: graham, hunter or carter (unlikely)

If and when that doesn't happen I could see us trading back for a team desperate for O-line help and taking Golden and I'd be very happy with that plan

Campbell is intriguing or just draft Membou. Just depends where Moton really is health wise and Ickey is development wise in their eyes.

Is it just me or did a bunch of the top teir 2 guys going early this year skip drills or am I reading that wrong?

      Maxx Crosby is not happy

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      I don't necessarily think he will be moved, I would currently be leaning against that notion. I think a lot will depend on the coaching situation. Carroll certainly can't be thinking about wanting to go through a serious strip down and overhaul, so the longer he plans to remain, the less likely I think Crosby gets moved.

      Smitty on TMac

      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.

      Give Legette another season?

      By kungfoodude · Posted

      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.
