Gugny Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 I'm sorry. You don't pick at TE at 9. Ever. TE's are not game changers. A nine pick should contribute a hell of a lot more than 99% of TEs ever will.

Maybe they're checking out the consolation prize in case they can't get their first choice.
Lieutenant Aldo Raine Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 I would be down with the pick. One of the biggest impacts between Josh's sophomore and junior in college, was the loss of TE Jacob Hollister (now with the Patriots). I think Hockenson would be a significant upgrade to the position and the offense overall.

A nine pick should contribute a hell of a lot more than 99% of TEs ever will. I’m struggling with this logic. Which positions are acceptable at 9? I could Make an argument that every position (except QB, DE and ILB) is too early to pick at 9. Wouldnt you take Tony Gonzalez, Antonio Gates, Gronk, Shannon Sharpe at 9??? yes - these are the greatest of all time... Is Hock a SPECIAL player? More special than Wilkins or Burns or Gary? I think so.... is he in a position of need? Definitely. Im thrilled with the pick of they make it. 1

Alphadawg7 Posted April 23, 2019 Posted April 23, 2019 REAL QUESTION: WHY ANOTHER TJ HOCKENSON AT 9 THREAD? This is like one of at least 4 or 5 threads of the same title. And they have been on here consistently for weeks. Why another one to say the exact same thing? 1

Both your question and mine are real questions, but mine seems more relevant to this thread.

In the grand scheme of things, not many. And most game-changing TEs were parts of great teams. I just don't see a TE being the difference in many Bills wins.

Honestly didn't quite follow your reply...what is your more relevant "question" you were referencing? I read your post, just didn't see a question, so not sure if I just missed something. Guess I just didn't understand why you started this thread instead of just participating in the identical threads on the home page. All good, I suspect this will get locked or merged here soon though by the mods.

Damn dude, tough to figure this one out this year 1

Damn dude, tough to figure this one out this year Yeah read that...going to be a very interesting and entertaining draft with so many question marks not only for the Bills, but on so many teams. Top 10 is all a wildcard right now and what was the only "sure" bet was Murray to Cards and some fluff coming out disputing that too now. So who knows, will be a fun ride 1
