this is why I'm getting criticized for being anti-Coulson Lovelin. It's like it's not just, yeah, I don't want to take a tight end in round two, but I don't want to take them in round three, round four.

Avoid in rounds 2-4; likely 3rd target on Lions despite WR-aligned usage

Zachariason is explicitly anti-Colston Loveland in rounds two, three, and four; he argues those rounds should be reserved for running backs and wide receivers where league winners are typically found, not tight ends, even elite ones. Loveland is projected as potentially the third target on the Lions behind Roma Dunes and Luther Burton, placing him outside the top-two target threshold necessary for tight end upside. However, Declan Doyle and Ben Johnson use Loveland as a big wide receiver, running him from that alignment rather than inline, which mirrors Mark Andrews' career usage pattern and suggests high-volume receiving opportunity.
