I never think this is a good look. I support Joe 100% and want him to be great in the league. I just think you go with the hand you're dealt and if a team wants you and trades up great; if not you go to that team and play as well as you can.

Who knows who will be in charge of this team in 2-3 years. John Lynch completely changed the 49ers in 3 years. Maybe the current Bengals group is gone after next season and he ends up with an up and comer who can take his game to the next level.

How do they measure hands? Base to top of middle finger or thumb to pinkie?


Hand Size Measurement 2020 Draft

From article

— hand size is measured tip of thumb to tip of pinky.


My personal feeling is that they should measure it from the tip of the thumb to the tip of the middle finger (an "L" shaped measurement) as that is really how you grip the ball when throwing it.

Much less than ideal. I think he’s squarely a ‘tweener, and his combine numbers will push him to the later rounds.

He’s got great tape on blocking. That’ll help the tweener perception

Think he goes in the 4th

Depends How he performs. If he’s a fringe athlete he’s going to tumble

How does Thad Moss compare to Aaron Hernandez? On the field, obviously.

I don’t think anyone can really compare to AH. He was so unique as a talent

He was, but Moss proved to be quite a weapon at LSU. When thinking of NFL tight ends in the 6’1 range, he was the first one I thought of.

That’s a name I was going to bring up because they are roughly the same size. Aaron was just a different type of athlete with a rocked up body. Fast, explosive, elite change of direction.

Don’t get me wrong, he’s coordinated & has hands and has some wiggle, but Thad is built like a beer league softball player.

Tho I think he can play a similar role as Hernandez did in a short passing game like that, he just won’t make as many plays. Hard for me too see him as anymore than a rotational guy

If he had some highlights that matched his body I’d be all in.

Why would they list his non throwing hand? Supposedly his left measured 10”.

Except the Bengals are a family run organization. Mike Brown is like Jerry Jones, minus the loyalty to players, desire to win, or willingness to spend money.

Jed York was in over his head a few years ago. He still never tried to run the 49ers. He made bad choices and hires, but was smart enough to clean house and make the right hires.

Mike Brown runs the Bengals. He’s not going to fire himself, and he’s never going to spend money by hiring front office assistants, more scouts, or analysts to help improve the Bengals.

He’s been in charge for nearly 30 years. They have 0 playoff wins, and 7 winning seasons.

Not with the current dumpster fire of an owner. Bengals and Redskins probably have the most incompetent/moronic ownership in the league.
