We have almost zero weapons in the passing game. Carr needs help. Depends if we re-sign Cook. I’d rather put more importance on WE. TE is historically a luxury pick in the 1st, you draft them when your team is in place already, look at history. Hockenson won’t be there anyways and I’m kind of cooling on Fant.

The NFL is changing now and TE is a premium position with the right player because you can move them around and exploit mismatches against LBs. We need weapons across the board. Hockenson would probably be our #1 passing option from day 1, so it’s not a luxury pick at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NYRaider Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 The TE’s we have on the roster right now combined for like 135 yards last season. WR’s combined for like 1,100 yards, and RB’s had like 130 yards. Skill positions have to be addressed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is what I can away with using their big board/player rankings in a 7 round mock. Some favorable players fell for sure but I’d be ecstatic if the board fell this way. 1. Quinnen Williams, DT 24. Montez Sweat, Edge 27. Nasir Adderly, S 35. N’Keal Harry, WR 66. JoeJuan Williams, DB 100. Andy Isabella, WR 131. Rodney Anderson, RB 183. Gary Johnson, LB 196. Byron Cowart, Edge 213. LJ Scott, RB Wouldve liked to address off ball LB earlier but not a ton of great options and should’ve taken a flyer on a developmental OL in 6/7 but felt the value of Cowart/Scott was greater than what was available in that realm. In reality 4 starters from day one and love adding Isabella and Anderson to the fold on offense. 4. Quinnen Williams, DT Alabama 24. Montez Sweat, DE Mississippi State 27. DeAndre Baker, CB Georgia 36. Devin Bush, LB Michigan 68. Josh Jacobs, RB Alabama 103. Rock Ya-Sin, CB Temple 135. Parris Campbell, WR Ohio State 188. Austin Bryant, DE Clemson 202. Max Scharping, OL Northern Illinois 213. Khalil Hodge, LB Buffalo lol'd when Josh Jacobs who they had ranked as the 8th best prospect was there in the 3rd round.

I know the TJ train is moving at a nice clip these days but I think the TE class is 6-8 deep with guys that can start for a team if used correctly. Fant and Smith will probably test better and I like Oliver and Sternberger hands better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drfrey13 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 If we are going to focus on TE over WR would't Fant be a better choice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not too familiar with the rest of the group outside of the Iowa kids but isn't Fant more of a WR/TE hybrid than a TE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fant is def a receiving TE, but Irv Smith Jr from Alabama isn't far (ie wide margin) behind Hockenson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drfrey13 Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Can't wait to see what Ivey does on the bench with 36 inch long arms. Want to see him (4-6th), Taylor (late 1st-2nd), and Lindstrom (2nd-3rd) on Friday if we focus on the line in the draft instead of FA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some aren't good at benching. Also don't care if my cb benches 225 20 times. I want him to jump and go get ball. Read and react. Benching doesn't give you better technique.

This is the dumbest thing I've read today (checks Michael Cohen testimony), yup stand by that. All body types are different and the body reacts to different stimulus. Longer, ectomorph body types with long arms are not going to be great at bench press. A lot of great athletes who train hard daily can't bench 225 for a ton of reps.
