Default How high will BB take a tight end in this draft?

BB can't seem to resist; given his track record it's almost inevitable. Problem is, all the marquee college tight ends these days are downfield types and there don't seem to be many blocking specialists. One that looked interesting in the combine (can't recall his name or school) was this 6-foot-7 white kid who reminded me a bit of Boss from the Giants. He is slow, but pack on a bit more muscle and he could be a beast a la Kyle Brady.

Don' they have Thomas coming back from injury? Probably why they cut Brady. I think this draft will be defensive.

Not a dominating blocker.

One of the third round picks I'm sure. I think they go LB, DB, LB, TE.

Agreed except if there is a dominant CB at 7 over a LB.

The guy you are thinking of is Brad Cottam from Tennessee. He is like 6'7'' 270lbs. I have no idea how well of a blocker he is, but if they drafted a tight end, it would probably be a blocking tight end
