With ickey returning

Returning as what? A backup guard?  His chances to return as a franchise LT are pretty slim.  Sadiq is a luxury pick. I get his speed and athleticism are elite but he can't block, has problems with drops (sound familiar), and would be invisible to Bryce over the middle.

combined production of the tight end group would’ve been near the top of the league if assimilated into one do it all player

there’s nothing to suggest Canales doesn’t like tight ends. 

That might be a good argument against spending the 19th pick on  a TE.

Committee is working pretty well.

No ability to create explosives with the ball in their hand 

tremble is a nice move piece. Evans blocks really well. Add a playmaker and that’s a varied room of talent with package versatility.

I have been desirous of a stud TE in the past but that is too much of a luxury right now. IMO. 

For one big thing I don’t believe we have a QB that will maximize the investment. If people think we could recreate Cam and Greg, I would say they are dreaming. 

For another we have holes a lot bigger than a perceived hole at TE.

This isn't a ACL tear. I would say his chances of returning to form are great. Maybe he won't be 100% this year but I don't think this injury should change his career trajectory. How is 6'4 42 inch vertical invisible?

It's not an ACL tear, no - it's a significantly worse injury.

Its worse than an ACL

Only in short term. Not long term.

The team believes have the QB. We’re not preparing the roster for the future, they’re building strengths to go win the division this season.

If you’re drafting a guy like Sadiq who looks like Vernon Davis lite then you do so to make him a big part of your offense.

He isn’t my preferred choice but I won’t hate the pick just because the offense looked bleak for good parts of the season and that was with Rico going off….

It would be par for the course I guess. But splurging on a splashy TE, when we have had decent production by committee and have many other needs, is not a brilliant plan.

If this is about replacing Tremble, there are guys in FA.

What is the context of long term? NFL career or lifetime? That would matter.

I don't think you can compare any of those guys to Sidiq. Like none of them demand coverage. None of them are anything before or after the catch. Sidiq is. At the 19th getting an elite player at one aspect of anything is rare. Can you find starters at 19 absolutely. But can you find the fastest player ever at the position at 19? No that would be a blessing.

I think like lingering issues. You don't want Jonathan Brooks part 2 where you hold your breath Everytime he goes down. I am not a doctor but I don't think it's a will never be the same like degenerative thing like ACLs can be
