Yes please.
Will he be there at 20?
Washington could become a dominant run blocker with better technique, which makes me wonder if a team might give him a look at offensive tackle at some point in his career.
The guy is such a giant, his draft profile states:
Seems like a fun prospect to draft in the mid rounds
Sam Laporta of Iowa had identical combine #s to Kittle just a few inches shorter @ 6 ft 3”Easily.
Actually, I would expect teams to sit and wait on TEs. This class has probably no less than 10 guys who should be better prospects than Dissly was coming out. It's a really loaded class and particularly so with guys that are inline/blocking types.
Deepest class I've seen probably ever. And really not particularly top heavy either. Just a lot of really good prospects that in a normal draft would expect to be taken in R2. With that much depth, I'd expect teams to address other more lean options at higher positional value and circle back to TE in R2-4.
Athletically, there isn't anyone in this class the equal of Noah Fant or George Kittle. But man there are a lot of good players in this class. Seattle is going to need one from this group, as both Dissly and Fant are UFAs in 2024. Taking a TE this year is really akin to getting another starter grade TE, plus whatever UFA you're going to sign because you aren't paying either Dissly or Fant 9M. So I consider it a 2 for one kind of deal.

Fant has a big cap number they might want to trade...Easily.
