He seem pretty atheletic, I want to see his strength and technique in run blocking during tranining camp. 

Exactly. Hopefully change means someone who is a reasonably good run blocker.

So many of us here who were following the draft were interested in Hunter Henry and willing to invest a 1st round pick at tight end in order to have an upgrade at the position, better backup behind Greg, and the possibility of 2 TE sets.

Incredible #Gettlemagic that we may have gotten all this with the 2nd to last pick of the draft in round 7....  Can't wait to see how Sandland does when the pads go on and the competition ramps up.

It's incredible to think that the #1 scoring offense in the league from last season is only improving.   Everyone but Cotchery returning.

Cam in his prime and still with something big to prove...

KB coming back; Devin Funchess flashing big time; the potential of Sandland; the potential of Hill...  the rookie RBs improving, the Oline stable and solid.

About the only question mark is whether Stew will be able to stay healthy and who will be his primary backup.

 

Obviously the success of a season it's not only about talent.  Witness the 1986 Bears... 

There are all sorts of intangibles:  schedule, injuries, the locker room chemistry.  But seriously, chances look very good for another stellar year on offense.

Quick detour:

Ahem! Isn't Dickson a locker room and coach favorite...?

That's why I am not buying the Fozzy over Wegher thing. I seriously doubt that G-man, or even Rivera for that matter, are going to forego the obvious at the expense of talent because they like a dude. They are serious about upgrading the talent on the offensive side of the ball, so out with the old and in with the new.

Back on topic:

Sandland  has the juice, and it appears he has the smarts to make a quick transition to the dismay and detriment of Dickson. Dickson's days are numbered. It's only a matter of months.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I'm honestly looking beyond DC at this point. He's too green and is making too many simple mistakes. I think he's gone after next year. I think the intention in LV was to use Mayer and Bowers similar to Gronk/Hernandez in NE. That's never really struck me as Carroll's MO though after watching him for years out here in Seattle.  He's talented enough and I think he just got lost behind the phenom that is Bowers because he couldn't develop in Carroll's system. I'm surprised Bowers is used as much as he is, though they really don't have anyone else. TE's don't really exist as focus receivers in Carroll's offense. I live in the PNW so I've been subjected to a lot of Seahawks football.  Coaches other utilize their TEs. We should too. Tremble is OK, but he's always been a project as a receiver. Again, all this is of we could get him at the right price. I wouldn't pay a lot because we need to spend on defense.

      David. Hey, money talks.....it has been acknowledged that Tepper isn't shy on spending. He's had the NFL equivalents of used car salesman after used car salesman line up to grift him of a big chunk. Canales is one of them.  Until that changes, it's gonna be tough to build anything to last.

      Well it's who they tied themselves to for at least another year but i agree. They will be lucky to find a useful contributor but until I see the DC situation change I am presuming it's SSDD. Well it sounds like maybe in 2027.
