I like him the most based on what he doesn’t do than what he does. He doesn’t drop easy passes and make bonehead plays like our TE’s have done so much of. Not flashy but reliable 

You misspelled Ian Thomas.

The Panthers are a better offense with Evans and Tremble on the field compared to Sanders.  Sanders has way more upside, but drops too many passes and can't block nearly as well as Evans and Tremble.

I will say, we don't have any world beaters but a very complimentary TE room.  

I've been of the impression Ian Thomas severely skewed how people thought of guys that have been respectable in their time here.    

For context- 3 of Tremble's first 4 touches in the NFL were TDs.  The 1 remaining of 4 was a chunk play.  10 TDs in 4 years as our TE2 is not bad, especially considering the coaching and personnel over that time.  And he's made impact plays when called upon.  I have never got the hate on him outside of sharing a room with Ian.  He never elevated to his high round 3 pick, but he's been good enough for how we've used him.

JT looked solid at the end of last year but he's really just a receiving type.  But he showed up in that final ATL win.  I don't know what to think of him yet but he's an alright option to have even if he doesn't turn out to be a top receiving TE.  

Mitch can play all 3 TE spots though.  He's of the LaPorta and Kraft mold which I love. 

Sanders more like a Musgrave, Tremble more like a B Strange.  We'll see but I'm hopeful.  Evans is the type that could free up a roster spot long term and add some disguise-ability to our offense if he can become our TE1.

I wouldn't mind a te room of LaPorta,  Musgrave and b strange

I like this guy.  Caught him doing more nice things in 12-personnel. Just keeps showing up.

Passes the eye test early which historically, rookie TEs don't do...

My take on him is this. If you need him to block, he's able and willing. If you need him to catch a pass for a 1st down, he's able and willing. Seems like the perfect solider. You see the effort too. Many have helped Rico go video game- XL, Mays, BC, IckY, Lewis, Tmac, Temble and Evans has been blocking his arse off too. 

Its vastly overlooked in this era of highlights and pay me TDs clips. Willingness and effort in the run game. I don't think its not by design, that nearly all of the last two draft class- If they need to block, you will get their best effort. Most of these current WRs/TEs want nothing to do with blocking......Horn, XL, Evans, and even sanders(he improved before the injury) are going shoot their hands and lose slowly......aka NFL blocking. 

Think if he's going to get better???!?!?!? !!!!

oooO my gawd...... it just hit me........ Evans continues to get better and sanders solves his injury curse. Paired with the solid Tremble, that's one young and talented group.....\

gulp........They are the key to saving BYs career!!

    • A winning record would be nice, but I still have us winning around the 6 to 8 game mark. Realistically we should beat the Jets and Saints, that gets us to 5 wins. After that, we have to face a lot of potential play off teams and our divisional opponents. I think we’ll win 1 or 2 of those games to take us to 6 or 7 wins, perhaps 8 wins if we can spring a further surprise.  Is that enough progress for head coach and QB? I’m not sure, it will depend on performances and output. That said, it’s nice to be back in a position where we are thinking about the play offs.
    • I would tend to agree about not falling into the trap and paying a below average QB, but sometimes situations can “force” a team to pay that QB. For example, if we play ourselves into a 9-8 like record, then what options will we have in the draft? Or do we avoid the draft and trade for or sign someone in free agency?  I’m not convinced by the 2026 QB draft class. There’s some intriguing prospects but no one that really screams “draft me”. I’m not sure we’ve got anyone really that stands out as a trade candidate or free agent signing. So although we might not want to commit a big money contract to Young, him playing well and showing progress might force the team’s hand. 
    • Realistically we would be looking at no more than a mid round pick for Dowdle or Chuba. Are we really that desperate for a mid round pick? Not really. I would much prefer us utilise the two RBs in a 1-2 punch similar to how we used D-Will and Stewart. After all, Bryce is not Drew Brees. He won’t throw for 300+ yards and carry the team consistently as a passer. So having a strong running game with a 1-2 punch will be beneficial to him, and it will also be beneficial to the RBs because we can spell them and not overwork them.
