Sitting at 3.02 and had my eye on Jace Sternberger as I had no TEs at all going into the draft. Figured with him and Irv Smith (with some vet added later) I would have two darts to throw at a future TE starter. I do like to remain open to talent that drops and I also see Darwin Thompson and Tony Pollard here.
Not sure which direction I should go as I expect all three to be gone by my next pick at 4.02. Currently I'm leaning towards Thompson but can be talked out of that. I want balance out reacting to what we've seen in the pre-season so far but not overreacting.
My short thought are here but would love other's opinions as well. Thanks!
Darwin Thompson: Has flashed at camp and couple be a big piece of the KC offense and I like collecting pieces of top offenses. I also happen to have Damien Williams but I don't necessarily see that as a positive. It is limiting my upside by having two RBs on the same team.
Tony Pollard: Has flashed as well and if Zeke continues to hold out he may be a winning ticket. Having said that, I'd expect Zeke to be back yet the offense may be changing and Pollard may have a roll with potential upside but is more blocked by Zeke for a feature roll than Thompson is by Williams.
Jace Sternberger: Good prospect at TE. Hasn't flashed a ton in camp but he is next on my list of rookie TEs right after Irv Smith in a good TE class.
