He had only 46 receptions across 4 seasons in college for just 487 yards (10.6 YPC).
DW, by comparison, 45 receptions across 3 seasons for 774 yards (17.2 YPC).
DW also was more athletic than Sample.
I can respect the team not feeling DW was experienced enough as a pass catcher, but I personally thought blocking was a high priority for their TEs, so I thought they would have gambled on DW's receiving development due to his size, athleticism, and blocking ability.
Maybe they learned from the Sample pick and feel now that it's not worth taking a TE so early unless they have a lot of proven pass catching ability.
The whole 2019 offseason was a weird one. Definitely explains why the draft just left a weird feeling for everyone.
You can always trust an dishonest man to be dishonest. Honestly, it's the honest ones you have to look out for.
