Why spend a 1st on Mayer when you could get a stud in 1 and someone like Schoonmaker from Michigan in the 4th. NFL.com doesn't rate Mayer much higher than Schoonmaker either. (6.44 to 6.36).
Im with you on this one. I would much rather have someone on the D-line that can get to the QB or a RT that can protect the QB than a TE. I just dont see the value in taking a TE that high especially with all the other weapons on offense and how the TE will be used.
If you want to look in to the needs of this team and how we can improve, the reason we lost to KC was because we didnt have enough quality O-linemen/depth and because we had trouble getting to the QB on defense. Mahomes had way too much time to make plays and he made them. We will face KC again so we better do a better job getting to him and other QBs. Right now we dont have enough players on the D-line that can get to the QB. TE wasnt the problem last year even when we were without both our #1 and #2 TEs so Im not sure why people keep pushing for the TEs when the team would be better served drafting other positions like Dline and Oline.
