I love Hockenson as a player, but I can’t shake the feeling that a TE that high would be an error. As the article states, historically TEs don’t come into their prime until their 2nd contracts (fingers crossed Swaim fits this bill), and investing a first in a TE and expecting immediate results is probably a fools game.

I’m increasingly thinking we will go o-line or d-line in the first, with a TE coming in round 2 or 3.

If you believe the TE will be a future all pro then he absolutely would be worth investing a first. Just my thoughts...
