Jeb Blazevich as Fourth Team TE??? I could see Henry, Ingram and Howard...but Blazevich over Vandy's Steven Scheu is crazy...

He had over twice as many catches and yards as Blazevich, along with twice as many touchdowns.

It is preseason. I think everyone accepts that a certain level of projection has to be done on a preseason team.

Or is he not a good blocker or something?


He's one of the best blockers downfield I've ever seen at his size and speed. Again, he's just not the prototype TE. Neither is Jimmy Graham, look at how he turned out.

Not to sneer at the other TE's but Hunter Henry is a fairly solid choice. He's a good blocker and a skilled receiver. Who knows how things will go this season after all, another tight end might really make his mark, but for everything a TE needs to be Henry is a good choice.

When will people learn to not put Howard on any kind of list? The guy has a lot of potential, I get it, but he hasn't done anything to be worthy of an All-anything.

SEC is loaded at TE...I just think that it would be hard to leave Vandy's TE off the list after the season he had last year.

69 Tackles, 12 TFL's, and 4 sacks in 2 years.

So him being first team on this list is the very definition of "overrated"

Again, I'll take multiple publications, draft experts and NFL scouts opinions over a random UGA fan every day of the week. He's a defensive tackle. I sometimes think the people calling him overrated don't realize he doesn't play defensive end.

Arkansas will have one of the better defenses again this year. We should be better represented on that side of the ball.

Maybe Denver Kirkland if you believe Bielema's superlatives...but what does he know about the OL?

I am continuously amazed that Skipper or Tretola are selected over Kirkland in some of these publications. He's our best OL, IMO.
