I'm thinking that the team doesn't see TE as much of a need as some fans. Carr has made a career of elevating his TE's. Johnson, Trautman, and Hill can be a very formidable trio as is at TE with an effective QB.

Especially considering we seem to hit the jackpot with a couple UDFA's every year. That's like another draft for us.

Shaheed being a great example.

It’s not so much a knock on the player. They guy could be a stud. I feel there were guys who would help us more immediately for next year at places of more need. We struggled more on O last year than D. I scratch my head on spending first 2 picks on D. A 6’ 8” TE for example could have made our O a lot more potent. I feel we are passing on a Kelsey/Graham type opportunity.

Please don’t try to argue with me about this Guido. I don’t want to get into it with you. I realize you disagree. I can understand why he was chosen. It’s how I feel and time will tell.

Gonna start drinking now.

Man. I felt that him playing at 10 lbs more weight really impacted his game. There was no explosion off the ball in 2022.

Hey bud- I hear ya but I don't really have a problem with the picks. Carr has never played on a team with a D in the top 20. I think limiting his time on the field will be key. Not to mention we are thin and old in the positions filled.

Also, I think we will get a couple of holes filled later, whether in draft or undrafted.

I’d love to replace Peat, I do like the Foskey pick a lot though.
