If you're going to draft Lee Hunter in the first round, you're going to also play him in sub packages.

And I just don't know if he offers like the pass rush abilities to warrant, you know, taking him in the first round.

But if you're just talking about,

about talent and stopping the run, yeah, he's that guy.

There are a couple guys like him in the draft.

It's the old story of can you afford to draft a guy high if he's only going to play 35%, 40% of the snaps?

Maybe at some point with the running game coming back in the NFL, maybe at some point some teams will do that, but they haven't done that yet.

I agree, and he's one of these guys who's entering the final year of his contract.

They've got to make a decision on him, maybe by this summer.

You've got Nick Herbig, you've got Darnell Washington, you've got Chris Boswell, there's Joey Porter Jr.

There's a lot of guys that they would like to take care of, but I don't know that they get all four or five of those guys done.

It's going to be hard to get all those guys done.

I don't know, before the start of training camp, you know, Austin, it's interesting.

Like, how does Mike McCarthy's offense treat, favor a blocking tight end?

I mean, going back to his Packers and Cowboys days, you know, he was more, you know, he liked to move tight ends, you know, the guys who can.

go out and catch passes.

So I think Darnell Washington is going to have a role in this football team.

Maybe McCarthy like creates a different, you know, a niche in his offense for Darnell Washington, but I don't think he's a typical Mike McCarthy tight end.

So that's a hard question for me to answer.

I think that's why it's going to be good to go to OTAs, go to mini camp, training camp.
