FlightBoyz Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 TE was certainly not a need. Not sure what the hell Macc is doin 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HelenOfTroy Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Just now, Barry McCockinner said: Sounds like a blocking TE. I found this funny. YAC - I don’t know how a tight end this slow and incapable of elusiveness makes things happen after the catch, but here we are. Obviously not a make-you-miss type in space, nor is he a home run threat, but incredibly tough to bring down and has really good balance through contact. Withstands shots and carries defenders with him for extra yards. Carnage of missed/broken tackles left in his wake is eye-popping at times.

Il Mostro Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Nasty attitude, physical good blocker. So, potentially a blocking TE or ST guy. Not much of a factor in the passing game until 2018 -- still no great shakes even then. ??? pick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mogglez Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 1 minute ago, Jet Nut said: Strengths Burly upper body with a broad chest and thick arms Nasty with an offensive lineman's demeanor as a block-finisher Impressive play strength at point of attack Gets early arm extension and peppers his opponent with stiff jabs Has size and aggression to kick out linebackers and open a run lane Trusted to handle pass-protection duties for star quarterback Capable staying in front of edge rushers and blitzers Began to come on late in the season as a pass-catcher Will lay the lumber as a blocker on kick-return unit. Weaknesses Can be frenetic and wild in the initial phase as run-blocker Too much lunging and needs to bring his feet with him Slows feet into move blocks, allowing opponent to wiggle away Hands regularly slide out of position when run-blocking Pounds the grass as a route-runner and lacks instincts in space Uncovering against man coverage is a challenge Slow to open and make himself available as a target Awkward hand positioning as pass-catcher Yuck. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barkus Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Benny snell, m. Jordan, Harmon, Ridley all on the board and we pick a blocking TE wtf!!! UDFA can do the same thing!! 3 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryu79 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 BR peeps love the Wesco pick. He was in the 90s on Rogers talent board. Apparently, had strong Sr. Bowl and they frame as a Gase scheme fit. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beerfish Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Mac the pu$$y. The coach got mad at him for not getting his fav blocking Te in Fells and so we have to make him happy with the worthless blocking TE in the 4th, a guy we already have. A total 10 snap a game maybe guy instead of going for a player that might develop into a full time regular. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bealeb319 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 It's not about him as a player. It's that we're fine at TE, and we have so many more needs. What about Riley Ridley?Riley ridley had what 120 more yards? Guy isn't great that's why he isnt draftedSent from my LGUS991 using JetNation.com mobile app 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is how you can improve pass protection and run blocking without drafting another OL. They’re going to maul people with him and the raiders G. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrcoops Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 1 minute ago, David Harris said: I'll take your word for it. Hope you're right. Do you know anyting else about him? He's a real versatile guy. Sort of a TE/FB hybrid. A really strong blocker but he can catch and he's a load to bring down. He will be a valuable asset in several roles, IMO. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GREENBEAN Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 We just drafted a higher upside Eric tomlinson in the 4th round.

J_Smith Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Would’ve preferred powers who went right after love the shot of Mac alone in the war room.

Miss Lonelyhearts Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Mockdraftable's athletic comps for Wesco include Amaro, Pociask, and Sean Ryan. So presumably we think he can block as opposed to just being a guy who can't catch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That all may be true, I just dont see how Galliard, Jordan or Ben Powers (guard not center) can be passed over at this point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
