I thought you said he never made use of a TE in his systems before... seems like from your post that he did. Just sayin'... 

2023 was under Canales 2024 wasnt

Oh, I'm not giving up on him, and I hope he grows and grows into a great TE, but he is far from dominant on the field right now. Pair him up with another young, but dominant TE and it opens a world of opportunities for our offense, both in the passing and rushing game. We would move more into the dictating our game to the other team than having their defense ram what they wanted to down our throats.

We need hitters on offense. We need multi-role guys on the field. And we need some punch in the now before Thielen finally gets caught by Father Time. 

 

thats not our offense though, that certainly isnt Canalas offense at all

Basically Sanders would become the third TE if we picked Warren because Canales wants a blocking TE as his TE2.  Warren would get like 50 targets and Sanders like 10

Sorry, but his junior year is what most TEs dream of in college.  His Freshman year Pat Freiermuth was there, he wasn't seeing the field.  So his only "non-productive" year was his Soph. year when he was still behind Brenton Strange who was drafted in round 2 in the 2023 draft.

Warren is legit.  I'll take a Swiss Army knife offensive player over a 8-10 sack per season EDGE guy every day of the week and twice on Sundays.

45Catfan pretty much answered this. But... on the junior season, I'd happily take a guy who managed 7 touchdowns in 34 passes. Plus blocked. And then as a senior they roll him out not just as a receiver and a blocker, but as a running back and wildcat QB. 

He is the prototypical football guy a team needs. 

He was a 3 star guy recuit

In 2022 he was 3rd string.

2023 he had a 15% drop rate 

2024 he was the whole offense and super stud

Both of youz guyz have made up minds, his whole resume is one peak at the end. He wasn't talked about in drafts until this year, even then during January on many mocks he was listed among 3rd rounds.

 

 

Then the rocket happens...

This is one weird flawed draft, Im just pointing out warrens history and facts. along with piss poor TE draft history and his 5th year leap after being a forgotten member. Sorry he's your fav...

and Bryce has never shown that he likes to throw to the tight ends

Which is crazy because they are like a security blanket for QBs.  To be fair throwing to Ian Thomas is not very inspiring or reliable.

Sanders caught everything thrown at him and was open alot without Bryce even looking his way.  Why you guys want to give up on Sanders makes little sense to me as well

Not giving up on him, he's just a TE2.

I realize we are going for a mediocre EDGE player, but I don't have to like it. I mean it's par for the course, I'm routinely disappointed in our drafts year after year.  It would be different if I thought our drafts sucked and we were winning Super Bowls, or crap, even sniffing the playoffs.   I think I have room to gripe when I think our drafts sucks and our team actually does suck.
