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.

      Mike Kaye predicting we trade up in 2nd round

      We need a Sam Off Ball Backer to pair with Lloyd. Lloyd is a strong Interior Will especially in Pass Coverage- but that is also Trevin Wallace’s archetype. Need a Rozeboom style run stopper. Rodriguez and Allen fit that

      Day 2 Targets/Faves

      By woahfraze · Posted

      There aren’t that many ways to screw Day 2 up.  That’d be them making an obvious reach, or selecting at one of the few positions that we are pretty solid at. Because as excited as we are for the growth and improvement this team is showing, it’s still not an overly talented or deep roster. Honestly, there aren’t really many positions I’d feel bad about. Feelings about Bryce aside (because we are not going to select a QB), it’s really RB (bad positional value) and that’s it. I guess OT too since we grabbed Freeling in Round 1.    While not as high on my wish list as other spots, you can justify WR or TE.     Interior offensive lineman who would likely take over an interior spot either this year (at center) or guard (next for cap casualty of Hunt or Lewis)? Fine by me.   Dlineman? Yes, that’s a highly rotational position and we have zero quality depth.    ILB? Yep, could stand for an upgrade over Wallace.    EDGE? Absolutely wouldn’t hate another option to spell Phillips, Scourton, and Princely.    FS?  Would love to add better coverage skill set to the backend of the defense. Moehrig and Ransom are great in run support but not as good deep. Adding a more traditional FS would allow us to mix and match/run some 3 safety sub packages and or a big nickel type look with a SS down near the line for better run support in possible pass downs.    CB? Could stand to get better at nickel.

      Sounds like Veesaar is entering the draft. He could always test the waters and pull out and return but without him our big men look like a serious liability. Better do something in the portal. If they don't do something about this portal madness my days as a college sports fan are probably numbered. This bullshit of having a nearly entirely new team every season is gonna get old fast.
