Jesus I hope not. What for? Brandon Coleman can play the exact same position as Ingram can

Brandon Coleman combine:
6'6"
225lbs
34" arms
4.56 40
32.5" vert
7.33 3 cone drill
4.51 20 yd shuttle

Evan Engram combine:
6'3"
234 lbs
33.5" arms
4.42 40
36" vert
6.92 3 cone drill
4.23 20 yd shuttle


Engram is way more athletic than Coleman...

Brandon Coleman isn't an NFL player

They can get a starting corner or LB at #32. It would be a wasted pick on a tweener like Engram.

I think there will definitely be the temptation to grab an offensive player there. However, since Payton stated that we wanted a defensive player plus picks for Cooks, and only got the pick, it would be a disappointment to see us go offense that early.

Im getting DV'd for this so let me explain what I meant:

Ingram is not much more than a big wideout.... yes hes talented, more so than Coleman. But do you really wanna burn #32 on a tall wideout??? If so, ok, but I dont.

Especially when you have Mike Thomas. Engram reminds me of that big wideout from Vandy a few years back

Jordan Matthews

Engram is more athletic than Matthews as well.

Not that that means anything, but I think Brees could do really well having another tall, athletic WR and not whatever the frick Fleener and Coleman are pretending to be.

Engrams compares favorably to Jordan Reed imo. Reed plays faster than he tested and Ole Miss runs a lot of pro style routes with Engram that he'll be asked to run at the next level. He has no fear on seam routes. Njoku reminds me more of Ebron coming out...Ebron has turned into a solid tight end but Reed is a better player

If they feel like they can't get him with their 2nd rounder I think they take him with #32.

Probably block better than Fleener, blocking TE is an afterthought in our Offense. Payton uses this position for matchup advantages in passing game. I Id take Sprinkle out of Ark. later in the draft. Need the 32 pick to create turnovers and TFL (DE/OLB/CB).
