What about this move?

he's not fast enough because he weighs 250 lbs but if you were to have gone up to him in January and say, we want to make you our #2 WR, lose 30 lbs, he would have done it and speed would increase with the reduced weight. I'm not saying it should be done now, but why keep three TEs?

Two reasons:

1. Depth. We lose a TE to injury, we need reliable back-ups.

2. Goal Line stands. When we are on the 2 yard line, multiple TE's are going to help get that ball in the end zone. Be it for blocking or receiving reasons.

I seriously wonder if Rosario is faster than Jarrett. I think Barnidge is -- let's line him up wide.

Rosario can't even make consistent plays against linebackers, and the starter of this thread wants to line him out wide, so he can be blanketed by faster athletes. lol

Barnidge, that might be doable....even then...who knows.

Yeah Fiz has suggested this several times in the past...

My problem with this is that I just honestly do not think he's fast enough to consistently line up out wide and beat coverage. No doubt he has ball skills, can locate it and go get it... But, his speed is good enough to beat most LBs in coverage, but definitely not fast enough to beat DBs in man...

Look honestly, we don't have the pieces on the roster - we have to look elsewhere.

    • Man, we're desperate around here.  I had to look at Peppers' stats to see if I'm missing something, but no, he's an average guy at best.  Nothing impressive at all in his stats.  He's not a true safety at all, and I'm kind of annoyed with the jack of all trades players at this point.  Of course I see the PFF scores and everything, but I'm old school.  I believe the stats tell more about the player than the analytics.  This ain't moneyball here. (haha)  The best players put up numbers.  And when I look at the numbers, Peppers is just another player running around on the field.
    • People see what they want.  I have also stated since the moment we drafted Bryce….a badly owned team was screwing HIM over by setting him up to fail by coach/scheme design.   Core criticism isn’t actually Bryce…it’s Carolina/front office.  I could see Bryce being good.  I could see Canales being good.  But I don’t see them as a pairing.  Football is about fit.  Board is doing what the board does.  People were idiots who dared question the All Star staff.  People raged when Fitterer was criticized.  They raged when Rhule was criticized.   Until they didn’t.       
    • Yeah and to make it weirder Moehrig is a FS, Peppers is a SS.
