They said point blank they wanted to improve the run game and get back to running the football. They did NOTHING other than the TE to accomplish that.
I agree
Personally I would have taken a guard at 26
A good oline helps the run and passing games. An offense that can run the ball helps the defense
The TE basically replaces McKeon who was used mostly as a blocker and he may be a better blocker than McKeon and add something in passing game
Wouldn’t have been my pick there but not a bad pick
I look at the draft not just for this year and with the fact Biadasz is a FA next year I really wanted Avila because he could play both
Or Schmidt later with a guard at 26
But the team had a whole different plan and we can only hope it eirks
If they can get a NT who can impact the passing game then their plan looks a whole lot better
