1st Team All Pro - TE George Kittle Thread

Not really. How can you prioritize TE over corner, offensive tackle, maybe a guard,maybe a WR (Aiyuk's time to be extended). You're looking at early 4th round for a TE at best. Now honestly, I would do it, but to think of truly replacing Kittle, you have to be thinking 1st or 2nd round. Id just like a starting caliber guy as a pass catcher thst can block like a lineman lol.

You talking about a team that just drafted a fg kicker in the 3rd round.

LOL I had these same thoughts across both your replies. I was thinking they should draft one in round 5....

This Latu guy was a real head scratcher and obviously you know I'm all about the offensive line first, but this guy is always hurt and is staring at 30 already. When he's healthy along with CMC it opens everyone up imo. When he's not out there it changes the offense big time.

We all love him, but also kind of knew his play style wouldn't lead to longevity and I'm afraid we are fast approaching that.

Not saying he would be easy to replace, but they def need to start taking shots (better shots than Latu as well)

OMG we really did draft Latu that high didn't we...Its so fascinating to see them find absolute GEMS at times and complete duds on others. I mean that's the nature of the game, but they've compiled some interesting hits and misses for sure.

We really either hit a home run or we strike out in some epic ways. We're talking swinging at a wild pitch strike out and then getting throw out running to first after the wild pitch which leads to a double play cause they don't understand base running. I could really go for a few doubles and singles with some of these picks mixed in with our dingers.

I have no argument for this lol. But you know this is wrong. Kickers in the 3rd. Tight ends on day 1 or 2 with all these other needs. This is wrong and should be stopped.

The problem wasn't TE. It was THAT TE. Tight end in the 3rd to me is an immediate starter. Not some developmental redshirt pick.

Especially when our starting TE is guaranteed to miss time.

Scouts are good FO sucks... It's that simple. Why do you think rounds 1-3 are like throwing picks in the garbage but the late rounds are gold.

Lynch and shanahan don't know anything past the top 100 prospects and they are bad at picking those guys.

Once the scouts take over and get their picks we are gold in the late rounds.

Not really trying to hear how the team is motivated to win a championship when the best player on defense and arguably a top 5 player in this league is still holding out with game 1 being just under a week

Always expect the unexpected when It comes to the 9ers and the draft.

Lol

I was confused by the Moody pick. But I thought surely he must be the next Justin Tucker. Then the Trey trade happened and I'm officially off the draft picks boat for those two. I love John as a GM and I love Kyle as a coach, but man they've had some weird/bad picks. And dont give me the "every team has bad picks" spiel. We blew that theory out of the water this offseason
