In Dissly’s defense he’s only played TE at the college level for two years. He has a lot more to learn and is hardly a polished product as a blocker or a pass catcher.
lmao i just go with ifedi as curry end of conversation :irishdrinkers: :irishdrinkers:getnasty":2vpnuehf said:WindCityHawk":2vpnuehf said:So far we've added a rough-and-tumble RB, a fresh pass rusher, and a blocking TE.

I tried that with Ifedi as Walter Jones but it didn't work.
Please do, by the way my outlandish thoughts are shared by many draft experts and scouts (as shown by the tweet earlier by an NFL scout who saw the fifth round as the BEST CASE SCENARIO for Dissly). The pick isn't bad per se I just think its too early to be picking him.nategreat":25i4wj2i said:Can I request to have my user name changed?

That's like being panned by the homeless dude on the corner. Bleacher's opinion may, in fact, be worth even less. :roll:

I still have faith but pass blocking tight ends should not be drafted. It's hard to believe that you wouldn't take a flyer on somebody else with a little high ceiling.

I know thats simply an outrageous thought though.

Pass blocking TE's should NOT be drafted?? I'm sorry - not sorry - but this is something only someone who doesn't understand football would say.

He's 33. Why get him for a one year rental to temporarily plug the hole when you could draft someone who is ideal for what you want at the position and have that spot taken care of for the next 3-4 years or so?

Just because he's a Husky............right?
No, because it’s Will freakin dissly. There are a few huskies I would have been really happy if we drafted.
There will be about 30 good blocking tight ends that sign with teams as Undrafted free agents.

2 of those picks could have been had later in my opinion. I know it doesnt mean anything, but I bet we receive the lowest draft grade this year.

When draft grades win games, I'll care.
Exactly. Zach Miller was an excellent pass catching TE who just so happened to be an equally good blocking TE. He and Dissly are very different players. If Miller never would've been signed by Seattle, he most likely would've been a perennial pro bowler. He was that good as a pass catching TE.sdog1981":1jiyhykn said:Go back and look at the number Zach Miller put up at ASU and Oakland before he got to Seattle. They are not the same type of player.
