The discussion was about the next contract though. Waller was good in 2020, he wasn't great in 2021 and he has Danny Dimes throwing him the ball now, I have zero faith in a resurrection.
Regardless, we're talking about Kmet's mid 20s years. If you want to split hairs and say he wasn't a top 10 TE last year, that's fine - you're agreeinig that he's close and if you look at the ages of all of the other dudes in the top tier (Andrews, Kelce, Kittle) they all didn't put up big numbers until they hit 24/25 years old. That's the time period in which they're going to be paying Kmet and based on his current production/floor and that info - it's unlikely he'll be a bad contract at ~$12M or so.

Must have missed the bolded. I do think Kmet is currently just outside the top 10 but has the potential to break into it. At the same time I also think brining in Moore and Tonyan and having a healthy Mooney/Claypool could hurt his production (Not that it’s a bad thing if the offense clicks).
Although I don’t think Kmet has done anything deserving of earning a $10-12 mil per season contract. He will more then likely get that type of contract through because that’s the going market. Would Poles also be willing to draft a TE with so many other needs.

He's doing his rankings without including how good or bad these TE's are at blocking just to keep himself from putting Kmet in the top 10 because he's a better blocker than half the guys he listed and blocking absolutely matters for TE's.

Why it's not Jalen Carter or bust for Bears at three-technique
On paper, Jalen Carter is the best player in the draft and is a perfect fit for the Bears’ defense. But if the Bears pass on the Georgia star, they should still be able to fill their hole at three-technique later in the draft.

Wow so it's not Carter or bust, its just Carter, an unlikely second trade down, an unlikely overreach, or taking a guy who is unlikely to play more than a handful of snaps in his career?Why it's not Jalen Carter or bust for Bears at three-technique

Seahawks would be a great fit for him too. Longstanding coach who wont bend to a willful young man to keep things easy. I know I am reading a lot into his offseason conditioning, but Pete Carroll runs his team in a way that would dispel my every concern

You have to understand, since he wasn't traded to the Bears, he's NOT A SCHEME FIT!

Again read through my posts please. In one of my posts I said Kmet is a better blocker than most on my list, but I’m basing this off of receiving. That’s because most people rank TE’s based on receiving not blocking

NFL Draft News and Rumors: Demand Outstrips Supply at the Center Spot
In our latest NFL Draft news and rumors, what is the latest we're hearing about Joe Tippmann, John Michael Schmitz, and Luke Wypler?

Looks like the market for a top center will be tougher than expected.

Looks like if the Bears are looking at Centers it will be 3rd or 4th guys, perhaps Stromberg or Scruggs. Also will be interested in how Doug Kramer has progressed from last year.NFL Draft News and Rumors: Demand Outstrips Supply at the Center Spot

I think when you say most people you're talking about people on CCS which doesn't count. Most people who actually matter and rank TE's use the complete package of TE's when they rank them.

No when I say most people, I mean people who watch the game of football. What do you mean by people who actually matter? Question for you…Do you think TE’s like Gonzales, Sharpe, Gates, Gronkowski, Kelce, Witten, Graham, etc, etc, etc are going to be remembered for their receiving/TDs or their blocking? Do you think the majority of those guys will be HOF players because of their blocking?

He single handily kept the team in a lot of close games despite the lack of weapons, poor OL and a horrible defense

How do you think Hurts would have done on last year’s Bears team? I highly doubt he would have had anywhere near the impact that Fields had.
A stiff like Brock Purdy looked pretty good on a completely stacked team too.
