Wouldja &11?
Has a top 15 TE ever returned value? It’s a no for me.
You can't be serious
Don't make me go on my TE in the 1st round rant.
Hard NO.
So wait, some on the board are ok with trading the best WRer in the NFL because of money, why would we draft the best TE in a decade?? He'll just turn out to be the best TE in football, expect to get paid and who needs that shit? :p
No as we don’t need a TE. With that said, as a Georgia fan, I watch nearly every game. The guy will be a nightmare at the next level as well. He’s essentially a big WR. He could play both positions for you. I’m not sure how he’ll be impacted health wise, but his last recorded 40 time in camp was 4.49 at the SPARQ camp in 2019. He’s probably a little faster now.
Personally, I would never take a TE in the first round unless I essentially saw them as a WR - sort of like Hockensen. Unless you expect him to catch 80+ balls each year, I don’t think it’s worth it.
I would take Brock Bowers in a heartbeat if we had a need. He should be a game changer at the next level. We see many freakish TE’s selected in round one, but what differentiates Bowers is he’s more an elite football player than just athlete.
Na, he’d probably only last maybe 3 quarters of the first game facing Kerby-the-Kneecapper-Joseph…! :s
I would never draft a TE in the first round. Almost as bad as a safety or running back.
Only 4 Top 10 picks at tight end since 2000
Kyle Pitts
TJ Hockenson
Eric Ebron
Kellen Winslow Jr
No. With Hock here #11 goes for something we actually need.
I think TE is about as low on
the priority list as it goes. It might
go a little higher given Hocks injury.
That said, I have no qualms
with spending a 1st round pick on a premium TE, it’d just be a tough
sell for us given that we are so heavily invested in TE already. If we were a little stouter on defense, I
could definitely see it.

The injury is a wildcard. I think never say never. Remember when we passed on Aaron Donald because we had just spent a first on DT. AD had another all pro year “yawn”
I think of you have a field tilter at your pick you HAVE to take them. is BB one ? IDK, thats Kwesi’s job
Now BB doesnt fit KOC’s O unless TJ is out, but, look what flores did with Metellus and a 220lb UDFA mike
TJ and Bowers on the field should be a matchup nightmare for D’s.

Theoretically, an offense with Hock and BB should be nuts. I'd be curious if KOC could adapt his scheme to really work well out of a 2 TE formation. Hock would probably be on his way out before you'd have to pay Bowers.That said, our defense really needs a talent infusion. We can't expect the team to be SB caliber if they're rolling out comparable amounts of talent on defense as they did last year, and I'm skeptical as to how much better our offense can actually get just by passing more.

Where have I heard this before….”JJ and Adison would be a match up nightmare”.
How many nightmares do we actually need to win?
I am sure the nightmares we create on offense scare our defense too.
Damn, I am salty. I hate playoffs
