Which prospects are worthy of the 5th pick?

That's what I want.
Howard may be special, but Walker still has time. There are also other talented TE's that will be available in the 3rd.
Also agree there are no "sure things" at WR. Of the 3 constantly mentioned, the only I would be pretty mad about is Ross. I think he's a 1 year wonder that happens to be very fast.

Ultimately, I like what JRob did last year and have high expectations for this year. Whatever he decides to do, I feel it's likely a good move even if it's not the move I'd like to see.

 

I also like the idea of trading back, but I don't think anyone on this site has been against that.

 

OJ is like a guard at 5... so it's very possible to happen cuz Titans.

 

I don't get that train of thought at all.

 

You don't get the train of thought that we are a run first- bully ball throw back style offense? That's where howard fits like a glove while also being another weapon without having to get lighter when we want to run 11P.

 

I agree with that, but how is he like a guard? I see how he helps our run blocking (like a guard) but he provides dynamic receiving value as well. Far different than simply taking an O-lineman early.

 

More of the fact that he will be valued as a run blocker first- and taken wild early for a TE (not that I'm against it)

 

I like Howard a lot, but at 5, it's crazy...Not when we have bigger holes to fill and he'd be #2 on the depth chart

 

#2 on the depth chart but playing 75% of the snaps?

Just fill Howard in for Fasanos role (533 snaps)
Compared to Walker at 708.

As well as likely some more snaps to get him the ball.

 

I get his usefulness and match for the squad...I just don't like it at 5. Not for a blocker that occasionally gets open for some passes...Hell, We need help in many other areas. Especially defense
