That #2 TE spot.

probably dickson. his skills as a blocker are probably going to make up for a lot of deficiencies at the tackle position.

 

Unpopular position on this board as I think Williams is the sentimental favorite (see Ryne Robinson, Donald Hayes, Armanti Edwards, etc...)

 

I agree though and Dickson will most likely be the guy.

This is his second year.....I'm not sure what you expected out of an udfa te

I think the huddler that wrote that comment may expect more because he held one of the 53 roster spots lat year. That was an accomplishment in itself based on where he came from. I am more inclined to see it from your perspective. What is the probability of us finding the next tight end star as a UDFA? I get the fact that he had a scholarship to Oregon and had the knee issues. At the same time I stay optimistic and hope for that lighting in a bottle...lol

They say he worked his butt off in training camp last year. I am hopeful his work ethic carried over throughout the year when the cameras stopped following him so closely. We will find out soon enough in training camp.

Why the love for Dickson? Dude has been inconsistent at best in his career. I'm thinking Williams will win it if he continues to improve and stays healthy. McNeill is a good blocker so I wouldn't count him out in a Hartsock role as the 2nd tight end.

      He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....

      Experience with Electric Vehicles?

      By d-dave · Posted

      Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
