I would never take a tight end in the first round.
This.
TE is weirdly becoming the most delusional position
Kyle Pitts, dalton Kincaid, and even Michael Mayer have all been called ‘generational’ ahead of the last 3 drafts. That of course should tell everyone that they ain’t generational. TE is becoming more and more like RB
All the best TE’s have been non first rounders: La Porta, Kittle, Andrews, Kelce. Hell look at Trey McBride …Isiah Likely…Cade Otten
Ain’t no way. Also a TE w/out a premier WR duo is fruitless. A TE ain’t supposed to be your go-to unless you’re Mahomes Buffalo’a offense tanked bc no #2 WR, despite Kincaid. Trey McBride went nuts but Arizona’s offense was trash bc no legit #1 WR
On the flip, Kittle as a 2b/3 luxury in SF works. Hockensen as 2b/3 in Minny works. Laporta as one of many options works (but they still need a #1 outside WR). The only teams that should draft a TE that early is if it’s an absolute luxury and you have 2 solidified WRs
