Best TE's in the draft?

He's not the best TE in the draft but I like Cole Turner from Nevada. Converted WR to TE, good size, makes some great catches in traffic and not afraid of going over the middle. Someone that Carson Strong looked to a lot on key plays in the red zone and 3rd down

My boy Cole Turner did not have a good combine. If that means he falls to the 5th or 6th round I'd be stoked to get him there.

Greg Dulcich from UCLA will be a star in the NFL.

What do you guys think about Chigoziem Okonkwo? Seems like he could be a good upside pick later in the draft. Kind of a TE/FB hybrid it sounds like.. But if any offense can find a good way to use a TE/FB it's the 9ers.

Im balls deep in Jelani Woods

He show chased the athletic numbers which is great and all, but why I watch the combine is for the movement drills, the gauntlet, how they carry themselves under pressure, Jelani absolutely caught my eye in every aspect, he would be the only TE I would be comfortable spending a pick on before round 7. He could go round 4, I wouldn't make that investment because he have kittle, but if he's there in the 5th and the other needs dont show value then I'd take him and know we have a quality #2 who has the upside to be a #1 if Kittle gets injured.

So far he is the only TE reported to have visited with the 49ers.

I like

Someone who doesnt get discussed alot and can be had in the late 3rd - 4th rounds is Greg Dulchic. Im a UCLA fan so I watch alot of him. He would have had better number if UCLA had a halfway decent QB. I would always say this guy reminds me of Kittle, just tad less athletic. The way he catches and runs with the ball, mirrors Kittle's playing style. He also fights for every yard and his downfield speed is a mismatch for LBs. Just needs to work on his blocking, but I think our coaching staff can fix those things. Overall, I think he would be a great TE2 on the field lining up in the slot

The way he runs the ball out the backfield he would definitely fit the Niners

It was the first time I've seen a TE fly sweep work. I'm used to just seeing Kittle get stopped for a 1 yard gain unless he beasts modes it and gains 7.

that's why he would be my #1 TE ... not a 1st or a 2nd... late 3rd could be a reach but he'll be worth it.. especially to other teams that need one.
