This is false. He's actually been more inline than slot+wide combined this season.
2023 snaps by position:
Inline - 166
Slot - 121
Wide - 33
Backfield - 17
Only in 2 games out of 6 this year did Bowers play less inline than slot+wide combined.
Week 1 (17 inline, 25 slot, 4 wide)
Week 5 (27 inline, 25 slot, 7 wide)
One of the first 2 picks has to be OL. Period.
I get if someone like Newton or DeJean or Bowers falls into our laps, we might have to take them. Or even a top WR if we let Tee walk. But Jonah is a FA & Volson kinds stinks and Cappa/Karras are OK at best. We could uae help at any spot and it is a deep OT class.
My priorities would be:
1. OL
2. DT/3T
3. DT/NT
4. TE
5. RB:
6. CB:
7. LB:
8. WR: If Tee walks, higher.

Interesting!
49% inline vs 45% outside or slot vs 5% at RB.
Still I stand by what I say the guy is more WR then TE and will be used as such by any NFL team.

Everyone says this class is deep I disagree. I see maybe 3-4 starting it’s and then a bunch of projects. Also don’t wanna reach… lastly, may need to consider signing Jonah. 6 pressures allowed last 3 games
