It can be. Look what Eifert did for the offense when he was healthy. But considering we have injury question marks at starter for both TE and CB, I really thought they would have jumped on one of Mayer or Porter.

If you're spinning that as a good thing, you're wrong
So a rotational piece at EDGE when the pass rush problem is not from the Edge but from the inside. Meanwhile we will continue to be ineffective against 2 high because we did not get anyone to help force teams out of 2 high.

Looking at Lou's comments, it looks like they expect him to flex inside on pass rush a lot.

I saw a lot of blatant holding from kc
So I guess Patty is going to get Mayer now...

Call buffalo for a trade. thought you blocked me lol
I don’t love it, but I’m not angry about it.
At least 5 guys I would have taken before him.
Pass rush had to be improved but I would have taken Mayer the way it played out. But what do I know.

They may have both with Murphy, maybe they line him up at UT on 3rd.
They were not impressed with Mayer’s blocking that’s why they passed. They need good blocking and there will be some at 2 or 3.

I know I didn't, him and his toxic Dad can go elsewhere.

Bro, night one. Lots of good tight ends this draft. We also have Irv smith.
R-e-l-a-x.

The pass rush was also terrible with Hendrickson on the field. They are a highly paid group that needs to just figure it out and improve from within.
I also remember how awful our TEs were last year without Hurst on the field and the only change they made was replacing Hurst with a guy who missed more games in his first 4 seasons than Tyler Eifert. TE now is going to be an absolute drain on the offense's ability in 2023 anytime they're on the field.
The Giants recent Super Bowl teams were really good because they had a deep cast of pass rushers. Also with all the Quarterbacks in our division we certainly need some kind of edge against them.

If any one doesn’t watch Brett Kollamn I would advise you to. Below is a edge video for the draft. He has him in tier 1. Murphy coverage starts at 12 min.

Grew up a stealers fan?
I love the NFL. Know nothing about college players. I have hated position picks in the past ( CBs notably ), but based on the last few years, I will believe in the picks.
