Is Chig better than Tremble, Sanders, or Evans? Just curious, I've never heard of the guy

Yeah what X-Clown said. He's an athletic freak, who you just bank on never playing with a decent QB and system. Entering the age range we tend to like going after, *cheaper* than the other FAs possibly.

I like Tremble more than most, but I think Chig is an upgrade to all 3 guys we currently have. In my perfect world, Tremble, Chig, and Evans are our 3 TEs, but, Tremble's cap number is blah.

Problem is we really don’t use TEs and even if we did Bryce limits the opportunities our TEs have. 

I could argue (not knowing if I am right or not) that the fact that we have not used the TE much is based on talent, not strategy.  We ran some multiple TE sets last year to improve the run game (which is why I am Skeptical that Tremble is cut) but we need a threat that can block

It seems like the #Panthers are out on N’joku.

A bit long in the tooth (31) but he can play and there is not a huge market for him---I am guessing 5 million.

Njoku for comparison whom many are saying is injury prone has a higher durability rating FYI

Here is my gut:

They could draft, in round 2, Stowers from Vandy

If not, watch Jolly from NC State.

Stowers 45" vert

Chig is the TE I want but I think in a noodle arm BY offense Goedert would be more effective 

[TheSpecialJuan]

Chig Okonkwo

 

WASTight End#85

Commanders agreed to terms with TE Chig Oknokwo, formerly of the Titans, on a three-year contract.

It’s possible depending on how deep the Commanders wideout room is and how the (seemingly inevitable) Brandon Aiyuk signing works out that Okonkwo could be a featured player for the pass offense in 2026. But after four years failing to crack 600 yards, we’re skeptical that it will happen in a new arena. He’ll likely remain a mid-range fantasy TE2 for the Commanders. It’s a good real-life signing given the fact that Zach Ertz hit free agency with an ACL tear, however.

Welp, one down. Shouldn't be long now

[carpanfan96]

Heard the team isn't planning on releasing Tremble, so they probably backed out of all of these.

Saw him from field level in Boone when Miami played up there. The entire Miami squad was massive but Njoku stood even above them. It's almost like a circus, seeing football and basketball teams, because the humans are all absolutely massive people you rarely, ever, see anywhere else.
