You mean Johnson, not Thompson Wedge pretty sure. Theo Johnson is a monster, he is like 6'7" and he is athletic.
I watched Sinnott once last year and he stood out in a great way and was clutch in helping Kansas State get a win late. Sinnott
can play H-back, Fullback, TE and can line up as a Receiver. He catches the ball well and blocks well. He is like my Sam Laporta
of this Draft and would love to have him.

Worst case is bringing Hudson and Sample back and having them split duties again, but ideally you want your TE1 (and TE2) able to both block and catch.
The TEs I have on my list are Bowers, Sinnott, Johnson, and Stover.
I'd like to have a TE taken no later than Rd 4.
Well, I actually thought Drew Sample was a bit better of a pass catcher last year than he has been in the past and he got at least 3 TD's
that surprised me with his YAC. He really buffed up last year and him in the backfield with Browning really helped in pass protection.
We could still slip him out on middle TE screens and he could make Defenses pay. But I agree in principal. Really want my TE's to be able
to both block and catch well to not give away anything to the Defense. That is why I like Bowers and Sinnott so much. Stover can also do
both well, Theo Johnson I don't know about yet.
