Makes me wonder what he'd give to have CMC back... or does he prefer a more smash-mouth type runner?

Staley will likely hold down the RBs, and Reich is about wearing down a defense with bigger skill position players that have good hands in the passing game. RBs get as many targets as the TEs. Seems Thomas Brown was hired because he understands the TE position and how Reich wants to get the most out of the TEs in the offensive play calling. Expecting an overhaul of the TE position. Maybe a trade for Jelani Woods. Good possibility of seeing 2 TEs drafted. TEs will have size, speed, and good hands. Makes me wonder how well Thomas Brown knows Darnell Washington - possible 2nd round TE target given what Reich likes in his receivers.

I think TE is bookmarked for that first 2nd round selection….if not perhaps moving up early 2nd. 
 

A Musgrave/Kincaid + Tremble at TE2 would be a menacing duo.

There are a load of excellent TEs in this class. I've even said I wouldn't hate taking one in the 1st round if he was still the BPA at 9 or even trade back a few spots to do so.

    • And that makes you right. 
    • Mel Kiper said he would retire if Jimmy Clausen wasn't a successful NFL starter too. Just because the experts make a claim doesnt mean it's true either.  Bryce may be a serviceable QB for someone. Serviceable QBs don't bring you a perennial winner or lead you to the playoffs over and over. Serviceable QBs also dont get 50m plus per year deals which is what a Bryce extension would look like.  The stats show he hasn't been even a serviceable QB in the 3 years he's been here. The eye test shows he hasn't put together 2 franchise QB salary games back to back in 3 years.  Complain all you want about people being negative, but people pointing out that Bryce is held to a different standard than anyone else on the team isn't complaining. It's stating the obvious. 
    • We have big bodied WRs and 3 TEs who all have potential and each bring something different to the table. I never saw the need to go out there and try and find a new starting TE.  While it's nice to have a guy like McBride, Bowers, etc, I think a team's better use of the cap is by having TEs on rookie contracts or cheap vets, not having to pay elite TE money.
