I don't have anything remarkable to talk about here but I wanted to talk about this guy and didn't see a TE thread.
Cade Stover, TE for Ohio State. I'm really impressed by him. I think I'd be willing to trade up in the 3rd or maybe even take him in the 2nd depending on how he tests.
He's just a really polished catcher, he's very physical. He's a little shorter than I like in a TE especially if he measures more like 6'2'' than the 6'4'' he's listed at. In either event, I think he's the guy I'm zoning in on in this draft since Bowers is a pipe dream.
Anybody have a guy out there they're particularly interested in that may be within range? If so, who and what round? [Reply]

Would almost say it goes from T1 to T3 immediately. Someone is going to take him early in result.
I agree, only 1 premium TE but several others that could become really productive players IMO. I think at least 1 of the next ~5 or so TEs in Sanders, Sinnott, Wiley, Holker, etc... has a chance to pop, but not sure which one. [Reply]

I think someone like Stover could have a solid career but no major steals like Detroit got. [Reply]
If we draft a TE this year I like either Tanner McLachlan or Erick All. Both move well with good hands. All has had trouble staying healthy though. [Reply]

I’ve found myself liking Wiley over sanders lately. I think it’s largely a product of sanders fall from grace. Wiley just has some of the kelce to his game despite saying he models his game after kittle. [Reply]

I love Sinnott in the round 4 range. But there’s been a ton of smoke about him being the second TE off the board. As much as I like him… I’m not sure about that
Actually I just checked and he’s +125 to be the second. With Sanders at +220 [Reply]
