I was not in favor of taking Jones...NOT because of his quality but in a year where there were are so many other LA kids at more pressing positions, taking 2 TEs IMO is clearly 1 over the limit. LSU needs WRs, secondary, RBs, etc. In general, my rule of thumb is one signee per position...25 spots and 22 position players. Of course, it depends on need for any 1 year, but IMO 2 TEs should not be taken this year.

I agree with you there. Especially with the way Upchurch is developing, he already weighs more than Jones but gives up a few inches. Upchurch may be a little bit shorter than prototypical TE, but I think he could play there if needs be. By the way, welcome to the board Purpleandgold2, I'm enjoying your contributions.
