Gotta go with Kingsley, considering LT has been unstable since Fisher left.

Worthy for sure. I'm excited to see long bombs back in the play book. And Pacheco is going to feast

Honestly, I am quite a bit eager to see how much more effective Pacheco is with Worthy AND Hollywood able to go deep...

I was not big on Fisher, but yeah, compared to what we've had since then...

I very much possibly took a stable, albeit underwhelming, bookend like him for granted.

Suamateiawhatever has a chance to plug the LT spot for however many years Patrick plays. If he pans out, this will be the steal of the draft.

Whatever one is a devout Catholic has my vote!

Honestly its Wiley. I was hyped for Kelce when he was drafted. As a former tight end (make your jokes) there's just something exciting about a plus tight end prospect.

I wasn't very draft savvy yet when we drafted Kelce, but I have been hoping for us to go get a guy the last few years, and when I was watching tape before the draft, Wiley really stuck out in my opinion. Hoping we can keep the TE as a highly contributing position.

Very much on the Wiley train as well. I also think he's the future TE1. Hopefully Kelce trains him up a bit.



Tbf, it's unlikely that Wiley will be the next Travis Kelce. And I say 'fair,' because a lot of people are going to expect that much from him because he's the heir apparent, and those are really tough shoes to fill.

When I think about it, we've been insanely lucky to have a pair of the greatest TEs in NFL history back-to-back in our lifetimes, and the odds of drafting the next all-world TE with Wiley are just infinitesimal. But I like what little I've seen of him on tape, and even if he only turns out to be an average starting TE (better than Gray) he'll still be a great get for us, simply because this offense is geared around the TE position.

Oh, I get it entirely. Some people will be let down because they'll expect another HoF TE, but if he can be a good TE and be reliable for 650 to 700 yards a year and contribute as he's needed, I'm more than happy.

Nonsense, 100% of our draft picks will be hall of famers, until proven otherwise.

Yah, that's pretty much what I'm hoping for. A solid TE1 that can give the offense a little of that security blanket element.

Couch-Potato 05-16-2024 02:59 PM

Worthy's the obvious answer, but I think Sua showing out as a stud LT would be amazing!

If Wiley shows some flashes early in the season we'll all be going crazy!
