Eh, not really. Olsen will be gone after this year and then there is Manhertz. So really only 1 good TE left.

Yep, for that reason alone I wouldn't be mad at all if Hockenson fell into our lap and we took him.  Thomas is a project; that showed last year and Manhertz is a pure blocker, not a natural receiver at all.  While Noah Fant is faster, Hockenson is the complete package and a force in the run game as well as a threat in the passing game.  If BPA is the strategy and Hockenson is the guy remaining at the top of the board at #16, we should take a TE.  Remember, we took Luke when we had Beason and drafted JStew when we already had DWill.

If Hockenson falls to #16, outside of Sweat or Gary shockingly still being on the baord, we'd be silly not take him.

Even with the Gronk comparisons that would be a tough sell. Literally all of these players would have to be gone for me to consider it.

Sweat

Oliver

Ferrell

Burns

Wilkins

Taylor

Jonah W

Think that's my list of possibilities. Probably in that order too. So if their all gone you can have your tight end and if that happens it's a good thing I'm in Florida cause I'll be looking for a bridge. Yep throw in Gary maybe above Burns.

Have they released salary numbers for Hogan?  

If it's low, than Torrey has to be released. Let's say it's $2M, a Torrey Smith release would equal a $3M cushion to sign someone like Tre Boston or Darian Stewart...or go towards signing Bailey. 

Torrey Smith (30 yo) 6'0" 205#  |  2017 & 2018 combined: 53 catches - 620 yds - 4 TD

Chris Hogan (30 yo) 6'1" 210#  |  2017 & 2018 combined: 69 catches - 971 yds - 8 TD  2 SB rings and not a social media diva

 

The choice is obvious. Bye Torrey.

Pretty sure it was just a hair about vet minimum. So likely 900k-1.1m range

Crazily, I think was Rappaport said unconfirmed it should be just a little over league minimum.

BPA is an all or nothing strategy.  Either you trust your board or you don't.  If not, you are just drafting for need.

Well I believe need factors in big time on most teams boards. Pretty sure they wouldn't have Hock over Sweat even if the rest of the world did.

    • I have been on the Bech bandwagon since well before the SR Bowl.  Hoping that he would stay a hidden gem and we'd be smart enough to grab him late.  I just don't think Morgan cares as much about WR as we do
    • No one had posted in a month.  I don't think any of us were watching
    • Here is how this draft could get mind-blowingly complicated--Interesting comment about Jags floating the Jeanty idea to lure Chicago into a trade.  I have to think Ben Johnson is going to duplicate in many ways the success he had in Detroit, and I have to think their free agency was following the blueprint Carolina designed last year (one that the Saints designed before them with Brees) and they upgraded all of their interior linemen.  RT in Chicago is set; Johnson loves RT Darnell Wright.  However, at LT, Braxton Jones is coming off a December injury and is considered to be in a competition for the position this year by at least a few fans on the Bears Wire.  His PFF score, however, was solid, posting an 80+ score in pass protection and 70+ score in run blocking.  He is in his prime.  However, in some of their fan mocks, the Bears are taking a LT.  I thought they needed an Edge to play 4-3 strong side across from Sweat, but they signed Odeyingbo to a pretty big contract in March. For the Bears, in my view, it comes down to TE or Running Back. Kmet is their #1 TE and he had 474 yards in that role, which was 25th in the NFL last season for TEs.  Adding Warren would help upgrade the TE spot and give them the ability to add around an estimated 80 yards of production per game.  The Bears have D'Andre Swift at RB, but could use a RB to pair with him for a desired 2 RB attack.  So if I am Da Bears, I stay at 10 and take Warren.  If the Jags want to move on from Etienne, then they will take Jeanty. I think, if I were the Jags (with 10 picks this year) I would take Mason Graham and not try to get an 11th pick.  It is a need position, and it seems to me the only reason they are toying with the idea of moving on from Etienne is because Jeanty is on the board.  That, to me, would be a luxury pick. New GM, I think he does not get cute--they take Graham if they stay at 5.  I might say the Jags' biggest need is Corner.  #5 is too rich for Will Johnson, but remember, they have 10 picks.  could they move up with Cleveland and take Hunter, giving them a CB and WR threat?  To me, with the draft capital they have, that is the move they should make.  Cleveland then could move back to #5.  Remember, Nick Chubb is an aging (29) free agent coming off an injury--so he is gone.  With an additional second rounder, the Browns move back and take Jeanty to give Flacco a running game. The Jags pick is very interesting, but I would not be surprised to see them move up.
