Yea I’d rather just draft a dude with a late pick than trade for a guy we know sucks.

Why not both? Jt plus Mayer plus a late round te. 

Thomas is hopefully gone forever. Tremble is ok but unspectacular and a fa. 

We actually have the luxury of many late round picks. Trade 1 for Mayer. Draft a te. 

Still leaves us with 7 picks and a stocked young te room

So basically draft 2 TEs?

Cough cough don't draft a blocking TE high.

No idea about the personal reasons but this guy is a TE #2 max. I would rather have that on a rookie deal. On the flip side could he be worse than Thomas at anything?

We could also draft a guy of that caliber on a much smaller contract deal.

That's what I meant when I said would rather have that kind of player on a rookie deal. Vs a guy coming off of it is what I didn't say.

Again, if the team wasn't in such need of meaningful talent then overpaying a little for an older blocking TE the coach could trust wouldn't be unusual. Giving up more than 1 pick is just dumb given the situation for us tho and there is still repairing what that last cap guy did before they can hit normal opperating IMO. Spending money like the peak Saints with so little talent was not a good combo.

      We need 2 tes if we don't resign tremble.  And Mayer is a several year vet so it's not like we'd have 3 rookies in the te room.  Just spitballin here

      I’ve been holding out on this because I knew I would just be called a homer. I’m sure some will still say I am and that we shouldn’t care about the underwear Olympics without seeing the tape. That being said…. this guy is an absolute freak. 6’3 220, 43” vertical, and 4.38 unofficial 40. And I can tell you I am not surprised in the slightest by following him since he was an under recruited high schooler putting up 232 tackles, 4 sacks, and 8 forced fumbles his senior year of high school (ONE YEAR!). He developed into the leader on the defense and was always the one making clutch plays.  He is going to be the Luke Kuechly for a defense at safety for a decade. I expect some team will draft him top 15, maybe even top 10. I go back and forth on whether you use a top 10 pick on a safety but at the end of the day, I think you pick a superstar no matter what position. I would prefer us get a top pass rusher or maybe even WR but I would be thrilled to land Nick E if we don’t get one of those guys. Would much rather have him over a guy like Jaylon Walker who is super intriguing but doesn’t have the production to back it up.
