Yeah, I definitely read more than one article that stated Warren was not a slam dunk as the top TE. He was an "eye of the beholder" guy. Doesn't mean he isn't a great prospect but the Brock Bowers comps seemed very suspect.

Brock Bowers was probably the most talented TE drafted this century. No tight end should be getting compared to him.

Warren is like a Swiss army knife that can play te and fb. He has a lot of red flag things he needs to work on for me though to be a great TE in the NFL though - something that should never be picked at #8

His board isn’t a guess of where guys get drafted though.   He knew Cam Ward was pick 1 but didn’t view as the best football player (which he isn’t).  So he doesn’t rank 1.  Teams don’t draft BPA.  They draft need, bias, systems, all sorts of stuff.  

I was looking at his last mock draft.  It was a guess of where guys will get drafted.  

Of course, he probably has 50 of them, like most of these analyst do.  And most of them are wrong and don't really know who will end up the better player.  We have Macmillan, just have to see how it works out.  

I was listening to some guy on the radio who said we should have taken golden because he is faster.  Sometimes I think speed gets overrated just a bit. Shiftiness and agility might be more important than running a 4.45 vs running a 4.3.

Every person the Huddle wanted us to pick is still sitting on the board. Would be wild if we make off with a Jihaad Campbell or someone in the 2nd

There's going to be plenty of pass rushers to choose from in R2. I do expect them to trade up for one though in R2 if there's a run on pass rushers early in the round.

      Interesting topic.  I have had a few NFL friends and one told me that he could not work out or train unless the activities and facilities were approved. AI: In many NFL contracts, certain activities are restricted, and injuries sustained during those activities can lead to the voiding of contract guarantees or even the entire contract. These restrictions often include dangerous activities like skydiving, rock climbing, or even engaging in contact sports like boxing. Additionally, injuries sustained while working out at non-team facilities or during personal recreational activities may be classified as "non-football injuries," potentially impacting the player's compensation.    Having said that, I question the reason the person filming this was not helping.  Secondly, the decision to put it on social media makes it seem a bit prearranged.  I do not think this would violate his contract, but I do think it is a bit stupid on his part in that he could be injured.

      Doesn't make it right.  And as you put it, you wanted to ban him from being country, which is essentially policing who he is as a person lol  I get protecting the "asset", but banning people from living their life is crazy. Russell Wilson likes to play helicopter pilot.  I would deem that WAY more dangerous.  Those things scare me.  I still wouldn't want to keep him from doing it if I were his boss.  I would just try not to think about it, haha.

      Could do better could do worse. I've seen some people very indignant over bringing him back and I can absolutely relate to the sentiment. But it's just in a backup role. He's also a good locker room presence and an effort player so for a 1 year rental in a year where we aren't going to do much it's fine. This is a development year. And there will be options if need be at the trade deadline. Besides at the end of the day we all knew a signing like this was around the corner after how drafting Mark Williams ended. He should have been our franchise center for the next several years. I don’t put that failure on the Hornets.
