I could deal with that as well.

In this draft class though, being as stacked as it is, I don't think teams will want to trade around much

I'm not suggesting he'll BE Tony Gonzales. I'm saying he could be. There's a big difference.

Vernon Davis, Rob gronkowskiand, Jimmy Graham, Kellen Winslow say hi.

And it makes sense considering our offense/QB...

And many scouts will tell you he's a better prospect than all of those guys.

I could honestly see Ebron falling to us due to his concentration issues and teams will always value a top WR prospect over a good TE prospect. He's going to have the same issues as VD had with catching the ball early in his career, maybe not to that extent but the problem will likely be there early on. I think he has the will and the ability to improve on it and make his highlight reel grabs on a more consistent basis.

Yep. He'd instantly be the #1 offensive target (as would ASJ or Amaro for that matter).

The drops are the only thing that concerns me about Ebron. Everything else about him is elite.

Adding ebron and Sproles would certainly increase our firepower

I like going TE in the first. Looks like there are two good prospects and our QB is a huge between the hash marks guy. Yes, even more than most.

I'm betting Dorsey sticks with Kelce and takes a WR there. Or at this point an OL. :p

Thing is, there are a lot of players I would be happy with at 23 this year so I'm not sweating this draft in the 1st round cause, unless we pull something like drafting Yankey (yes, even me the "safe pick/OL lover" would be pissed at that), chances are it will probably be a prospect that I actually like.

KC needs a tight end like Seattle needs a starting quarterback...so...

If I had to bet, I'd say they won't take a TE.

However, I think banking on Kelce is a bad idea. He's had micro fracture surgery which is always an iffy thing to come back from.

Ebron would be a big upgrade, even if Kelce was healthy.

There's 2 or 3 WRs, 2 or 3 TEs, a couple of pass rushers, and a safety that I like.

I really don't want an offensive lineman. For once, I'd like to see them be creative at the position instead of throwing away draft value (I realize that it's only year 2 for Dorsey and Reid but as fans, we can't just act like the years before them never happened).
