HOW???

how is he beating engrams??

Njoku has barely shown us anything and is one of the least physically gifted of the TEs in that class plus he is surrounded by A TON of better weapons


This one really confuses me

I think this can serve as a reminder that it is important for owners to stick to their gut even if the consensus disagrees. Plenty of times you'll end up being wrong - since consensus usually = safe. But when you are right ...

Looking back at the 2017 DLF Rookie rankings post NFL Draft - Kittle was not even a top 8 TE rookie. So of course it is amusing 2 years later after he has a surprise breakout of epic proportions. :)

That is why I may disagree & be pleased when owners took guys like Darrell Henderson early (ie top 6) but at the same time I respected their willingness to stick to their gut rather than follow the crowd.

The 4 owners that voted Other (which I assume includes Kittle) are the only people, out of the 215 who voted, that can say that they believed in Kittle from the get-go.

It will be interesting to revisit this again in another 2 years and see how things stand. At the moment the only one listed completely out of the running looks to be Bucky Hodges.

Ya, I picked him up with the last pick of the HoF draft. I was pretty high on him, but couldn’t justify taking him with a mid-2nd given his valuation and how many highly touted TEs were in that draft.

Yeah, though not surprising at all as he went way, way later in the NFL draft compared to the big 3 in the 1st of all things - 3 TEs in the first round of the NFL draft was unbelievable.

QB - J Allen, T Lawrence ...
RB - A Ekeler, S Barkley, J Cook, I Pacheco ...
WR - AJ Brown, C Ridley, G Pickens, C Sutton ...
TE - D Njoku, D Knox ...
