I just don't see him as that type of TE. He looks more like the good starter type variety of TE. The type of guy who might go in the teens but usually goes somewhere late 1st 

I’m curious about how he’ll weigh. These guys are never as heavy as the schools say, but if he’s really 255 then he’s absurdly loose and coordinated for a dude his size. Natural ball carrier, lines up anywhere. Good blocker. Just seems useful in ways that, for example, Eric Ebron never had a shot to be. Has another dimension to him than most tight ends. Schools with two NFL-caliber backs aren’t usually anxious to put tight ends in the backfield, you know?

It may certainly be recency bias, but it feels like there have been a few really hyped up te players each year that are can't miss guys, and then they just kind of miss. Of course, even a miss would probably be better than Ian Thomas.

I don't think Abdul Carter is gonna be an option at #8. Would be thrilled with the pick if he is.

Didn't we have the thread on here a few days ago where majority of the posters were saying he's not even worthy of a top 20 pick, let alone our pick lol

    • From what I am seeing these are the locks for teams drafting in the top 10: 1. Ten - Cam Ward  2. Cle - Abdul Carter or Travis Hunter (it will be one of the two, so this close enough to a "lock") 4. NE - Will Campbell (it has been leaked that people in the building are claiming him as "our guy") 5. Jac - Mason Graham 7. Jets - Armand Membou (they want Graham, but he won't be there. Next guy on the board is Membou)   The real wild cards are the Giants and the Raiders. No one seems to know exactly what they want to do. I think if Hunter is there for NY they take him, but Carter is not a "need" for them, and they might entertain trades down, but anyone that wants to jump up to 3 would want a QB and that might be too rich for the return for most teams. Would someone trade up for Carter or Hunter? Maybe. But it would need to be a team on the verge of winning a championship to make that move seem logical. The Raiders could go any direction. They need help on both sides of the ball. They won't go QB because of the trade for Geno. With Pete Carroll at the helm, the logical thought is defensive back. Could Starks or Emmanwori go this high? Does Carroll like Will Johnson enough to pick him? Is Jeanty their guy? I think the Panthers spot at 8 has become very attractive. It isn't top 5, so it won't cost as much to trade up into it, and it is right above the Saints, who could be in the QB market, and the Bears, which have been heavily linked to Jeanty. I think if Jeanty is on the board at 8, Jerry Jones won't be able to help himself and will call us. Morgan will likely take the trade, add picks, and still get one of his top guys.  
    • All I know is the track record of 1st round rookie Wr getting less than 500 yards in year 1 is very bleak. And mad because Bryce looks bad? I'm mad if a player in a panther jersey drops the ball. Don't get that argument...
    • Will say, I was watching clips and J Stewart was a nightmare for potential 1st round OT Ersery w/Minnesota.  Took care of that kid when they played.
