Why? Despite all the off field news, Gronk was a great TE his career.

I think it is because Brock looks small compared to Gronk.

I think it’s because he looks tiny for an NFL TE in this picture?

not just tiny -- but he looks like he is there to trouble shoot Gronk's computer

He does look like the Tom Brady of TEs to be fair.

"Mr Gronk sir. The front desk said you were having trouble connecting to WiFi so they sent me over"

 

[SECTION 11]

Imma go change my outfit real quick.

TBF Brock was always more Aaron Hernandez (on the field) than Gronk style TE prospect. 6'2" or 6'3" but very quick off the LOS.

yep

i think the concern with Brock will be if you line him in-line like you are going to run the ball -- not sure the defense will really honor that

Gronk, Kittle, Andrews, et al -- they are at a worst decent run blockers with Kittle being very good.

And Gronk was a phenomenal blocker.

I think the combine is going to show he is shorter than that

yep -- so the whole playbook was open

Pitts in Atlanta -- he basically is a big WR and i think the defense treats him that way.

I think a team that already has a good in-line TE and is creative enough to use Bowers like a H-back -- probably can get some good production out of him

I agree, but that might not worth a first rounder for sure.

Maybe if he reboots himself he'll comeback bigger and stronger.

there seems to be a consensus that Bowers is going top 15...all the way to 5th to the Chargers. I just dont see it. He is a very good player, but i dont see him becoming a superstar. I think he would be an an amazing H back type player, kind of like a Jusycheck 2.0...but Id take Mcbride over Bowers in a heartbeat,

Yeah was just thinking the same thing. McBride > Bowers.

McBride is legit turning out to be the steal of the 2022 draft.

Because Brock looks like a 12 year old next to gronk.

Look at Brock’s spindly arms.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

I’m warming to the highly ranked center at 35. Move fro over to left guard.

 

[DVontel]

He’s not making it to 35. He probably won’t even make it to our 27.

The dream scenario is trading down and still end up picking MHJ or even Nabers/Alt

 

[SoonerLou]

Certainly after missing out on Creed Humphrey and Linderbaum. Depending on who is available Im ok with him at 27.

I dont think such scenario is possible unless Monti is able to trade back up for like he did last year with Paris.

Falcons at 8 is about the lowest I'd go. And thats only if they can get a guarantee the Chargers wont take MHJ and are willing to trade back.

On mock simulators Tennessee is often trading up to 4 for Joe Alt. Again can we secure a trade up to 5?

Unless they really do have Nabers/Odunze wth very close grades to MHJ.

Sorry Lou and Ouchie but I think taking a C at either 27 or 35 is a terrible idea!

Just really, really terrible and awful. lol.. Sorry!

Yep.
