He looks like the guy we hoped Ian would be.  Would be really nice to finally hit on a 4th rounder.

Ian looked like that his rookie year. Unfortunately, he's gotten worse every single year.

Good. Thomas is awful and Tremble has been extremely underwhelming. Give somebody else a shot.

Funny enough Tremble was great in Norte Dame

Our third and fourth rounders could prove to be the strength of this draft. Hope not-but if our first two picks reach their potential, it could be the first layer of the foundation.

 

And the best running back in college football--of course, if you defend the 3 WRs and focus on Brooks, his success could have been because he was not the first, second, third, or fourth concern.  We shall see.

Just dreaming…Not  having a #1 pick this year we have several lower round picks that could really prove to be finds. Hopeful.

Seems like a Panthers thing. Plenty of really good college players who flop and plenty of guys who peak as rookies. Show promise then flop.

I wouldn't lump him in with the bad...he's actually been pretty solid.  He's done well when asked to make things happen.  He's been on pretty awful teams and isn't probably a TE1, but he's pretty solid in many respects.  Some great TDs on limited snaps and targets.  

[Bear Hands]

I'm not bullish on Tremble for 2024, but it's a mischaracterization to say he's one of the bad apples here.  He's very much a Trey Burton-esque dude.  

Anyhoo, here's to hoping we landed something in Sanders.  I said before, I'll say again, I see a better blocking Evan Engram when I watch him.

I'm gonna have the stones to start him.

I don’t think he gives TE1 back. 
 

 

As a Tommy Tremble fan... I really hope he doesn't. I think Sanders is going to be special.

Actually, he was considered a weak TE for ND because he was almost exclusively used as a blocker. They used him in a lot of plays designed specifically for him. Usually with him motioning across the backfield when the ball was snapped. They rarely threw him the ball. That was the concern with teams drafting him. No one knew if he could catch.

I think Brooks fits in well with our 12 man offense. LBs will have to watch the TEs and Brooks, with his quickness he should be able to reach the 2nd level easily and have the potential for big runs. Plus he can catch the ball out of the backfield. I expect success from him receiving in the flats. I think we will also see Hubbard have a career season too. The contrast of their running styles could work well together.

I still think Tremble can be something. He has at least shown flashes and it's tough to tell how good a TE is when the QB play and OL have been so awful.

[LinvilleGorge]

Tremble and Thomas are guys who would be trying to cling to a roster as a third TE on most rosters. That's honestly just reality.

[falconlynx]

I really like our TE room overall now, and especially Sanders.

How did he fall to the 4th round?

Sanders is the highest ceiling TE we’ve had since Greg, very excited about him. I hope Tremble can become a solid second TE, but don’t disagree with you.

Highest ceiling TE since Greg unfortunately ain't saying much. We've had the worst TE group in the league post-Greg.
