Tyler Eifert

[fanfin]

I might catch some slack for this but I believe he is a better pro prospect than Jimmy Graham or Rob Gronkowski coming out of college... (remember they have brees and brady throwing them the ball two HOF) if there is one thing I hope we do is draft Eifert in the first. Say good bye to Carpenter kicks and hello to Red Zone TDs

watch the film, the eye in the sky don't lie

I won't pretend that I've watched film on either Eifert or Ertz, but I definitely won't be mad if we draft one of them with the first pick. We need game changers on offense, and while people concentrate on receivers, tight end is as big a need IMO.

Exactly. In fact, I think an upper echelon TE will accelerate the development of RT more than any WR. A TE is a QB's security blanket. Eifert looks like he could be elite and would be a good red zone target.
The Phins have a solid team. What they are missing are impact players on offense and defense. In the 1st rd, they need to grab the guy that has the potential to be an impact player at his respective position.

He's going to go in the 20's somewhere. The guy is too polished to not be a 1st round pick, especially considering how much value teams are putting into this position nowadays. A guy like Eifert is a mismatch against anyone trying to cover him. He will out jump and box out any DB and will run past any LB. I say you move back 5 or 6 picks, pick up another 2nd or 3rd, and take him in the 1st if you really want him.

Like I said, the guy is incredibly polished for his age.

Couldn't have said it any better and TE's only get better in the NFL because most colleges do not have TE coaches. I can't comment or speculate if ND does or not but Dan Campbell could have this guy the best TE in the league in two years..

I am not a fan of picking a TE as high as Miami will be picking in this draft, especially with how much more we need a premier receiver, a lockdown corner, a passrusher to put oppisite Wake, or a quality guard, but I must admit, Eifert looks like a difference maker just like Graham and Gronkowski. If he manages to blow everyone away at the combine, I personally would not have any problems taking him that high and fixing the other positions with the with out 2-2nd rounders and 2-3rd rounders.

We also have 47M$ in cap space to assist as well, I think after FA you can cross of premier receiver and lockdown cornwer/ or pass rusher

I like him but we would have to move back into the 1st to get him.................DE/WR with our 1st pick,

I say trade back to the late first kinda like we did with odrick, and pick eifert at 24-26 while also getting another pick, maybe a 6th or 7th

Drop back 12 to 14 spots for only a 6th or 7th. Sorry, you do not understand draft value at all.
