Poll: I think picking Howard at #4 overall is..
It's a good pick. Howard is an elite prospect. He'll be a game changer.
It's an unconventional pick because TEs aren't valued that high, but I like it anyway.
I don't see the value, but he's an intriguing prospect so I'll give it a chance before judging harshly.
Seems like a misstep by the F.O. Better value could have been had. I'm very skeptical.
What the hell were they thinking? This kid better be Gonzalez level quickly.

1. We do not have a FB in our roster right now

2. Our TEs are either good blockers (Lewis/Koyack) or good receivers (Rivera/Sterling), but not both

3. It takes one of our 3 best playmakers (Lee, Hurns, ARob) off the field.

 

So, how do you get 3 WRs and still have a run-the-football identity?

 

By having a 6'6 251 TE who can run block, pass block, speed to stretch the defense, catch passes and get open in the middle of the field, catch passes out of the backfield, and has the speed to run away and pick up YAC.

 

The thought of adding Howard to this offense just sounds so tempting.

This is the best argument for taking him high. Our TEs currently are primarily one dimensional and if you want a threat on the field in a one TE set, you need a guy that can be a swiss army knife.  (pass protect, run block, get open and catch)
