This might be the position we will be looking at big time in the next 2 Drafts.

Especially if we don't bring back Hurst and don't draft a TE early in 2023.

I'm a bit surprised Laporta didn't enter the 2022 draft.
He put up 53 rec for 670 yards and 3 TDs last season.
He's already the requisite size at 6'4", 249 lbs.

It was a weak TE draft class, so I think he would have gone probably Rd 2.
Past successful TEs from Iowa also help give confidence in Laporta - Kittle, Hockenson, Fant.
