I'd like to look at Moncrief, Richardson, and Seferian-Jenkins.

Moncrief has done nothing without Luck. Richardson i feel is Lockett 2.0. Sefereian-Jenkins, if Norv plans on using two tight ends, has tons of potential.

Trey Burton (Eagles TE) should be on that list and looked at by the Panthers. Only 26, made plays whenever given a chance, excellent on special teams. Just a really good around football player.

Eagles will probably try and keep him but I'm sure he wants a bigger role in an offense and he won't get that with Ertz in front of him and not sure he would here either (at least immediately) with Olsen. Got a feeling a couple of teams will be willing to give him starter money / role.

He has to know Cam likes his TEs.

Really like richardson but concerned over how much he will cost.

I had the same reaction, but he is not in an offense that takes advantage of his skill set.  He got about 750 yards last year--I think that is better than Funchess.  Norv will want a deep ball. 

I think he is worth $7-8m, but that is a bit of a gamble. 

[WOW!!]

I like Moncerif more than Richardson.. Richardson price and injury history is a problem..

In fairness to Moncrief, everyone sucked when Luck was out.  I see Russell Wilson's qb style and do not think Richardson was a good match.  He still had 750 yards or so.  I think he is a  potential gem.  Agree on S-J.  Lotta teams will go after him.  Heck, Graham is from NC--just sayin'.

You gotta point there. I guess it'd all depend on the structure of the deal. I wouldn't want to be tied to a bunch of guaranteed money that's going to be a cap anchor for us if he doesn't work out, that's for sure.

Another name to look out for: Desean Jackson. I have a funny feeling he might get cut here soon

You like Richardson better in a Coryell than a West Coast?

Dude, what happened to Celek? A while back I thought he was going to be one of the next really good tight ends. If something derailed that, I missed it.

Sorta--if Russell Wilson is the qb in the WC (timing/vision).  I do not see him as a perfect fit, but I dont see anyone as a perfect fit.  I am hoping that a new offense would/could accentuate his skill set.

You thinking more deep threat or short to medium YAC?

Absolutely. His biggest strength is his ability as a deep threat. That's a lot more valued in a Coryell than a WCO.

I see him as a vertical WR  (X).  Now, I could be wrong---I am not his agent-but I think he could fill that role for us.

He was a 4.4 guy but I think he has had some knee issues--not sure where that left him.
