It's also not a position where the best NFL TE's necessarily are first rounders anyway.

Kelce, Kittle, Gronk-none were first rounders.

I don't know if I'd call Sanders a 'reach', but I don't know that I'd go that high either.

Sanders is 20 years old with tons of potential. Yes many of the great TE's from the past were taken in the mid rounds but in the current climate the very best are going earlier and earlier now. Hokinson, Pitts and Kincaid were taken in the first round. Mcbride, Mayer and Leporta in the second.

KC met with Sanders and it might be the smart play to ensure we get him with the first because I'm not sure he makes it to our second tbh. But I do think a WR or LT will be there for our second.

I'd take Saunders in the first over some of the WR's that might be available.

They killed it at the combine too. It changes nothing.

That's my thinking. Rather get a guy who could potentially replace Kelce longterm than pick a WR just because we're desperate to improve the room.

J’Tavion Sanders is so interesting. He’s a 2nd rd prospect that will probably be there around 55-64. Wouldn’t mind him at all in rd 2.

Fun fact: Sanders 10 yard split, 20 yard split and 20 yard shuttle were all faster than Kelce.

Pretty fluid pass catcher. Could work well here IMO

He had a ton of first round buzz early and now has seemed to fall or at least stagnate while others rise.

The current void at LT makes me a bit on edge…��

Noted that Mel Kiper is predicting WR Xavier Legette to the DET Lions with the #29 pick and WR AD Mitchell to the Chiefs in his latest mock.

I'd have Legette in the 1st too if last season was the only available metric, especially in a normal WR draft.

Noted PFF touts their GAS Metric (Game Athleticism Score) as the best indicator of Pro Production for WRs over the last several years, but can't find it anywhere.

Anyone?

[Couch-Potato]

Burton seems like he's on the rise and Coleman is falling a bit.
