The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

[pantherclaw]

Tremble. Seems the most snaps, although that because he's such a great blocker.   Sanders hasn't been the consistent pass threat that they envisioned for him, although I am sure they won't give up on him yet.  Evans, while no great athlete,  is definitely an effort guy that is going to carve out a role with this team.

Nah.  TMac struggled early in the game, he did great to separate at end of the half for the TD. 

There is still ZERO GMs who would take him over Tyler Warren. 

Keep being one of the most "special" guys in here.

I think he would just end up in a crowded TE room without the ability to really stand out. Tremble is a decent enough roster guy that makes sense for us because we have such heavy multiple TE utilization rates but realistically he is a JAG. Sanders is trending bust and Evans I still have some hope for, although he has fallen off recently. I don't think there is a single guy on the roster that cannot be upgraded over.

I just don't think Mayer is an upgrade over really any of them. Probably a lateral movement at the very best. 

I don't disagree with you, but want to point out that Tremble's strong suit has always been blocking. Case and point: on Horn's 25 yard run, he lays down not 1 but 2 nice blocks...and is looking for #3!

I had that thought when I saw what Cousins got from him. Not sure it is a great idea but was definitely intrigued.

heavy rumor is he getting tagged now. TE are a ultra cheap tag being a big reason and he's putting up numbers in his FA year...

Well the numbers and FA year might just be a coincidence, someone has to throw it to him.

I don’t know his health history but year one he got 110 targets. Next three years were 59, 90, 74. This year so far, 106. 
 Maybe he was never open? Or hurt?

I don't appreciate you making fun of my disability.
