I'm all for BPA but at the same time, again like the RB in the first argument I think it has to be a guy who is an insane prospect to be fair and viable. ETN was a guy who was a machine at Clemson, he had it all and to put things into perspective, the year Fournette and CMC went in the top 10 I think had ETN been in that draft he goes over both. 

I've not followed this years draft much, so I can't speak to the talent of whatever tight ends you guys are wanting to pick.. but what I do know is that usually the good tight ends are found late in the draft, TE's are apparently really difficult to evaluate in terms of translating to the NFL because rarely do the guys going early pan out to be that guy. And even if they are good they rarely make a huge impact. So yeah, if we're sitting at 24 and theres a guy who looks like he could be the next Travis Kelce.. go for it.. but also right now our offense looks pretty damn good and we need to build the OL and the Defense more so than a backup tight end.


While I think our team is on the up swing, I don't think we are in a position to take a luxury pick like a TE right now, at least not in the first round.
