Barnidge definietely has the most potential but I would say him bc king is a valuable blocker and has decent hands. Rosario also is a good blocker and has above average hands while also contibuting on special teams. They are all roughly the same age and like I said barnidge could eventually be better than both of them but he hasn't reached that potential yet. And until he does he is a third tight end and those are a dime a dozen.

If you are going by this current off season ideology, then it likely would be King. A decent player in his own right, but has reached his ceiling. I would be surprised if they are able to keep him around after this season, as he is a multiple year starter, so it would make a ton of sense.

Barnidge would be the only one who would appear safe as he has years on his contract and is young with huge potential. However he also has produced the least...

barnidge has the most upside as a receiver.

rosario has a lot of potential as well but probably not as high as barnidge.

king is a solid blocker and reliable receiver...just not much after the catch.

i'd say if forced to cut one it would be rosario but even with that it would be hard because he contributes in a quite a few other facets.

tough call but i would probably cut rosario. a trade would be nice but i don't know what we could get for him. it would be a shame to let him go. maybe shift him to receiver? i'd rather have him than kenny moore on the roster. i might even put him ahead of jarrett.

Obviously we aren't going to cut anyone particularly since we use so many 2 TE sets.

But in terms of rating them, Barnidge is by far the best of the three. He showed his potential last year averaging 20 yards a catch. With 4.6 speed he instantly creates a matchup problem for any linebacker. I expect him to get 30 catches and 500 yards this season. His blocking is better than folks think at this point.

King and Rosario are similar in that they are not very fast nor are they great getting separation stretching the field or running after the catch. I would rate King second and Rosario third.

      Bryce's Achilles Heel Is Not What You Think It Is

      LOL! We have ourselves a funny one over here.

      Would you trade Derrick Brown to get a top QB prospect?

      That’s why I love Jake and always will.  He was so fuging gritty and definitely was a gunslinger.  Like a not-quite-poor-man’s Brett Favre.  Like an economy version lol.  He was damn good.  Yeah, he’d throw a pick here or there, but more often than not, I trusted Jake.  He’d make some throws that really made you think, “damn, he’s even better than I thought.”  I loved that he loved to gamble, but more importantly, he gave his guys a fuging chance to make a play.  When people have been criticizing Tet for drops, it pisses me off, because they say it like these are some gimmes that he’s dropping.  but, at about 6’5”, if your whole body is moving one way and you have to stop or slow down to come back to a ball thrown behind you, or low, that poo is not easy.  Bryce isn’t really giving him a chance, and I can see why he’s dropping them.  Versus if you look at this highlight reel of Moose: at about halfway through is when Jake stepped in.  The passes he was throwing are CRAZY.  There’s multiple passes in there where he is throwing across his body while running the opposite way - and he still had the strength to get it on target.  Then there’s the throws where he lasers it in a spot only the receiver could get it - seam routes, out routes, over the top. The longer you watch, the more obvious it is that so many of these (what should be basic) throws are completely absent from our offense with Bryce.  There was a play today where he started to scramble, kept looking, looking, looking, then just threw it into the ground near the receiver.  Let them make a fuging play.  His best pass of the day?  The long one to Tet?  If you re-watch it. About 10-15 yards further downfield, XL smoked his man on a post route.  You get maybe 3 chances at that a game usually, and when you don’t even attempt it when it’s there?  That poo is so demoralizing.  I can’t wait for Bryce’s time here to be fuging over.  If they cut him tomorrow I would feel free.  I would feel like I just won the fuging powerball.  If they signed Heineke, Perkins, White, PJ Walker, or Hooker to start the rest of the year, I would be fuging ecstatic like we just trotted Cam out for the first time.  That how fuging life-sucking Bryce is as the QB.

      A historical perspective on just how statistically bad Bryce Young as a passer this season.

      Aren't they about the same size too? Why TF are teams all of sudden drafting these small ass QBs that have an EXTREMELY low hit rate at an already extremely low hit rate position?
