Making a new thread about this one because I feel like this is the biggest loss to date. Was hoping he’d hang around for Frost who utilizes the TE more. Would be strange for him to follow Gus with how underutilized he was
He was just in an uninventive system for his skill set. You are right, maybe not the ideal size for a traditional TE. But he should have been used way more than he was in goal line situations, flexed out on safeties/nickel corners, mesh routes across the middle.He’s really a receiver. Too small to be a TE. He needs to add weight. Imagine if he was bigger and he could run block and use play action with him.
Jordan AkinsJust give me an excuse seems to be the attitude for some leaving to go to another program.
If you look at the smaller size TE who wound up on Texans and his usage at UCF and what
he has done in pros it would be a no brainer to stay BUT...it's about show me the money now.
