Legette as a TE

[catnip]

Xavior Legette is listed at 6ft 3".  Could he be better as a tight end . He is strong enough to block and fast enough to take the top off .  He is a physical player and would not be required to know all the passing routes needed by a wide receiver .  Just a thought if we lose Tommy Tremble .

He can't be any worse of a tight end as he is a wide receiver.. 

 

At least tight ends don't have to work the side lines very often

I can see the logic but the glaring issue remains. His hands are not good. I remember when we tried to make Swole Bones a thing at TE. If it were that easy we wouldn't have had such a void at the position over the years.

I thought of that too but concluded that his issues would affect him at TE same as WR. 

If they aren’t solved? Fail at either spot.
If they are resolved? He is a WR. But there could be some crossover in how they use him.

Isn’t TE considered a lot harder mentally than WR’s for rookies? He barely has the football IQ to stay in bounds as it is. Now double up his playbook with elaborate blocking tasks?

[LinvilleGorge]

We already have a roster full of third string TEs.

[csx]

He is not physical at WR. That would be a disaster.

About as bad of an ideas as having Bryce Young playing center.

I've said before that he could possibly be a Cordarrelle Patterson or Ty Montgomery RB conversion type. I don't see him as a tight end though.
