Mahomes!!!!!!!!

If the Bears decide they are going to stick with Fields at QB, they can trade down from the #1 pick for a fortune to go along with the 9th pick. That team could be loaded - IF they think Fields is the guy. I’m not convinced myself.

you guys really want a tight end at 5?

when is the last time a great tight was drafted that high?

last tight end drafted that high was what Kyle Pitts?

still hasn't done anything since and he was a athletic freak.

Bower >>>>> Pitts.

Not counting the fumbles, Stick put up decent numbers for the games he played in.

He took a lot of flak from fans, but he didn't cost the future team any draft position.
I know the competitor always wants to win, but I'm happy with what he was able to do and accomplish, keeping most of the games close.

He threaded a very difficult needle, and for that I salute him.

My favorite avatar. More like Kelce.

Not sure they will trade up for one or sit and get the next tier but the Jets should draft one too. Rodgers can't play forever and a QB can sit behind him for a year or two. At 10 Penix may be available or Daniels.

Is there any world where Penix lasts to 10???

Best post today.

Bower >>>>> Pitts.

pitts hasn't exactly had and ideal situation in ATL and playing for a run first offensive minded coach didn't help either...

[Charge!]

Brock Bowers at 5 please
thank you

I agree... because he is the best TE I have seen since Winslow SR....... Bowers can catch bad passes with one hand..... runs over people, blocks, and can even play big power RB/FB.... he took a toss and ran 70+ yards with it for a TD...out running DB's against best defenses in college football.....

And it is a MAJOR position of need.... Chargers have not had a great TE since Gates.... a great TE helps BOTH the passing game and running game....Bowers also plays with an extreme toughness that our offense has lacked since we had LT....... some are leary of drafting TE's, and I get that.... some of the recent highly drafted TE's like Pitts are blazing fast and athletic but soft...not tough enough to dominate in NFL....

If harrison was there, I would probably choose him, because he is truely an elite generational big fast WR and we are likely losing MW and maybe KA due to money, injuries, etc.....

I do not know enough about the elite OT's, DL's and CB's to choose them over Bowers..... but i would trust the experts to do so.... for example, if Munoz were sitting there, then I would take him start him at LT and move Slater to RT and then we just need a C to keep Herbert helthy for at least 5 years....

Bower >>>>> Pitts.

but what tight end drafted in top 10 in the draft has done anything in history of the NFL?

Kyle Pitts - 4th overall

T. J. Hockenson - 8th overall

Vernon Davis - 6th overall

Kellen Winslow Jr. - 6th overall

Eric Ebron - 10th overall

outside of the top 10

Tony Gonzales - 13th overall - The only great tight end drafted this high.

Jeremy Schockey 14th overall - he had moments early in his career but thats about it.

Gotta give Kudos to Andy Reid kicking that field goal no funny business 4th and inches. played it out. Nice.

Is there any world where Penix lasts to 10???

Idk....My answer.....maybe, maybe not. Wait til you see him against Michigans defense and ask again. He certainly has the tools.

Teams over think things and he will be 24 after the draft, has had two ACL surgerys, a dislocated shoulder and a broken clavicle. If he don't last to 10 then Daniels could or maybe they draft McCarthey. Just saying the Jets should draft a QB too.
