Who called him Kittle LOL. Ima need you to log off dawg

they brought it up during the coverage.   The comp wasn’t actual NFL Kittle.  It was the version of Kittle coming out of college.   Kittle was a 5th or 6th rounder.  Raw and not a polished stud college TE.

I didn’t mean it like that. If he has terrible hands then we shouldn’t expect anything like that in the future. If he has some hands but was just kept to mainly block then maybe he can develop into something more than just a beast blocker. The comp was kittle which I get blocking wise. Just curious what his hands are like.

The little I saw him he just looked really raw and inexperienced as a receiving option.   He needs a lot of reps IMO.  But his skill set gives him a lot of room to grow.

He’s going to be better than Thomas and Arnold 

At blocking.   Significantly better.  He has a ways to go to catch Ian as a receiving option and Ian is disappointing at that.

He’ll have the most receiving yards this season for our tight ends. 

Logging 10 yards a game would have given a TE that title last year.  

Brady isn’t going to scheme him up for much with his current day hands and route running in the pass game.  He has work to do before we start about him as more than a blocker.

I think it was Charles Davis. Said he had the tools to be a great receiver too, but wasn’t used that way in college much like Kittle.

That’s a Michael Jordan dunking on the monstars level reach . I’m sorry.

Lol nice analogy! I think he was just saying he wasn’t being used to his potential in college just like Kittle wasn’t either... not that he is on his level necessarily.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      By strato · Posted

      I have been looking for a dropped pass list and all that comes up is QBs. And team stats. When I do receivers I get the passing stats for a handful that threw passes this year.    I wanted to be accurate but anyhow I was looking because thought I remembered reading where T Mac had more drops than XL this year.  One of you many smarter than me people here,I would appreciate it if you know how to pull that up, please do. Thank you.    And yeah I know that isn’t all there is to it I just thought it was interesting.  Of course what the hell is a drop lol.

      XL is a Lost Cause

      I agree with this and I think it's worth mentioning too that Bryce is not consistent on his placement and especially velocity and that in large part is driven by his footwork. We all know XL doesn't have the best hands and I don't know that he can overcome that. Cam always had the heater that just hit your hands and sank into your grip, where Bryce has some that are harder thrown, some soft. Bryce stepping into a pass looks so much different than that hop throw thing he does. I think XL really needs to hit the jugs machine and start learning how to catch all these different touch passes. TMac and Coker don't have these issues. If XL doesn't get some work in he's going to be out of the league in the next couple of years.

      I think most people like XL from a personal standpoint. I don't think he's stupid either. Although if we are being realistic he is lacking in football IQ at this point in time and it cannot be disputed that he has not taken working on his craft seriously at all times given the body of work on the field. It speaks for itself. I myself have defended him at times given the circumstances of our QB room. But he is now in his third year and 25 years old. We are not in a position as a franchise to go around babying anyone especially first round draft picks. He needs to take his position and his football career seriously or he is going to end up selling used cars somewhere. I hope he realizes this and takes an extended break from social media because that mess certainly isn't going to increase his net worth if he ends up out of the league. And these hanger on types will disappear quick too once that money dries up and it surely will eventually. We'll see how he responds.
