Not sure what you mean by the bolded. Do you mean the two teams in the SB this year? Ferguson is a better receiver than Goedert (Goedert a much better blocker). Ferguson had one year as a full time TE and in that year had 71 receptions and is much more explosive than Goedert. Goedert has never had more than 59 in his 7 seasons. Even in that season Ferguson split time with other TEs but had 5 TDs which matched the most Goedert ever had. Ferguson will be fine IF healthy this year, but Goedert has had injury problems in more than one season. BUT...that doesn't mean we shouldn't take TE. The Raiders took a TE in the 2nd round and immediately took Bowers early in the first the next year. Not that I am in any way comparing Warren to Bowers of course. We need weapons. Whether its a WR or a TE matters little to me if the TE is the better player.Two Super Bowl teams both have stud TEs. Warren would instantly upgrade your offense to a new level. And, he gives you a RedZone weapon. You know he'll be a super star already. To me, one of the safest picks in the draft.
The more I think about it, the more I think he's the likely pick.
BPA style in the first round. We'd know what we're getting, especially if McMillan is gone.
