Good point. Not sure rookie TEs make that much but it doesn’t matter. People talk about cap being a myth but I don’t see us doling out these monster FA deals. Doing smart drafting and value FAs can allow you to make that one or two extra FA splashes when you need that one or two guys to be a SB contender. Smart drafting is knowing the strengths of the drafts which can also lead you to getting better value for your picks like getting a WR in the 2nd that might have gone in the 1st another less deep year. That also saves cap based on the rookie contract scale.

With a loaded draft class the free agency tight ends may have some bargains. 

I think the Cowboys hold onto Dalton Shultz.  Engram has delusions of grandeur that will keep him from signing a mid tier cheap contract. 

But there are options. 

1. Gesicki was one of my favorite prospects in recent drafts and hoped we would draft him. We could try and sign him. 

2. Hayden Hurst could come right in and be the number 1 TE and give some vet leadership to Tremble. This combo would be solid all around blocking and receiving. 

3.  OJ Howard was supposed to be some kinda blocking beast out of college and never lived up to his draft position but with some coaching could he?

4. Foster Moruoe. Excuse me I misspelled his last name that Louisianan stuff is tricky. With Darren Waller around he never had much of a shot for targets. He could be cheap and believe or not productive for us. 

No need to draft a tight end it's a luxury pick we can't afford.

      Yeah, Franklin was a good ST guy that could fill in at safety IN AN EMERGENCY. But he was still better than Scott, IMO.

      I get that, but given his college production, his actual skill set, and what he's shown in camp, he really just seems like the only way he doesn't at least play to his floor is if he can't stay healthy or he just gets a huge head and stops putting in the effort, the latter of which I don't see happening. So hopefully he stays healthy (knock on wood), but there's unfortunately no way of predicting health, you can really only predict a player not able to stay healthy if they already had problems doing so in college.

      Austin named starting center

      By Waldo · Posted

      In it self no it's not a bad thing. It becomes an issue when they brought back Austin to play on IR most of the season again. That's not a knock on Mays but the situation. It's BC at LG all over. But on the flip side that's how they were forced to go out and sign a good LG the next year.  All of the talk and hope of improvement comes down to guys like Mays taking that step. There is something developmentally going on that Im not impressed with going on with this team. Austin and Dalton were 2 guys they obviously can't lean on at this point and yet both are still here taking up space.
