A pair of TEs in the top 10? That's interesting...

Also Booker at #14...

Watching what Warren and Loveland did for their teams, I get it. Now that the TE position is really now just a glorified Big WR, those two guys would thrive in the today's NFL offenses and in college, no defender could really guard them.

That list was really about the best prospects, which doesn't always correlate to where you go in the draft, per say.

Devil's advocate (and BTW love you have Michigan as a favorite team) isn't that most drafts? I mean the reality is after the 3rd round, pickings are usually slim and you are hoping you find a diamond in the rough or a player (Like Zinter from Michigan last year) that falls because of an injury.

While offensively, there may not be that "Wow" kind of player (the QB's are mid at best, WR is very questionable) the top 2 TE, we will be talking about for years (Loveland and Warren), defensive line is pretty great (Graham and Grant will be 10 year players, Walter Nolan and the kind from Kentucky and i think Carter out of Penn State, if in the right defense, is going to be a ROY candidate) and while the O-line may not have a HOF worthy player, it's quite deep.

This is a draft that 5 years from now, a team like the Bears with 4 picks in the first 100 spots, could really set a foundation for the next decade.
I think Graham is great but I would put Aidan Hutchinson over him and Carter as well based on being a more dominant prospect. People are saying Graham is a top 5 prospect and as loaded as this draft is at DT I consider that overrated.

Kenneth Grant may end up being the better pro in my opinion and like it or not Tyliek Williams from OSU might also be better but no one is talking about top 5 or 10 for either.

If they can Move down to the late teens and pick up another 2nd or early 3rd because someone falls in love with Graham, I'd do it in a heartbeat.

Go Blue!
