The fact that we've gone through the season with guys we have pisses me off. I realize Pope is a steady blocker, but every team in the league seems to have young athletic TEs for depth, and we're rolling out Pope, Odonnell, and Becht?
I don't know much about your guy, but I do think we need to build on the TE spot on this roster.

If we are looking at TE in the 3rd it had better be Fleener. Green shouldn't be drafted before the 5th. |

Fleener is the consensus #1 TE in the draft, he'll be gone LONG before the 3rd. Green already has a 3rd/4th grade most everywhere, and that's before the Combine. His measurables are superb and he's going to run a 4.6ish 40 which is likely to push him well into the 3rd round. |

Allen from Clemson is the #1 TE. |

I forgot about Allen, he's a Junior.
Still, there are some sites that have Fleener overall #1 at the position. That being said, that doesn't change that pretty much every site, even the ones that have Allen #1 overall, rate Green as a 3rd/4th prospect. So saying he shouldn't be drafted before the 5th is a little over-the-top. |

Green is a one dimensional TE. He's 6'6 230. Ya, he's tall, but he's skinny as hell for his frame. |

The NFL is evolving and for once I'd like to see us be ahead of that. No, he's likely not ever going to be a good inline blocker but that's not why I want him. I will admit, I have a personal affinity for the guy being a closet ULL fan but I think he's also a decent NFL prospect despite being a Ragin Cajun. If he does get pushed down to the 4th/5th, he'd definitely be worth the pick. |

From what I've seen of him, I'm not sure why we would want him. We already have a WR that's his size, what's the point?
I want a TE who's blocking ability gets Pope off the field. Receiving ability is secondary.

He probably has better hands than any WR we have now, too. |

Orson Charles of Georgia is coming out... a 2nd, maybe 3rd rounder
not much of a blocker but excellent route runner and hands

Excellent discussion, BTW. This is the kind of stuff I missed most while I was on hiatus...

I wouldn't mind bringing in two TE's. With MO's health concerns.

Orson Charles is a horrible blocker.
