I was never on board with a first round TE. First round TE's always make me nervous due to high rate of falling short of hyped expectations, and adjustment from college to pro game just makes it more of a dart throw. This class doesn't wow me, though there are some interesting prospects. I expected a CB or WR, but considering they already have former first rounders at those positions that are due for big new deals, it makes some sense to back off and find a guy in the ensuing rounds, cheaper early deals, unless there's a guy that they really love at that pick. They would have needed a pick a few rounds sooner.
I dig going for NT around that late first round spot, if he's really legit. The tiers get much broader at this point, separation is far less in positional rankings. They're going to need interior OL in the next few rounds. Lots of good WR and DB talent still there. Not sure they can fill every need, though. They got one of the biggest ones out of the way.
