Hey yinz! Long time too post i think since FA... !
As most you know I been down on out TE ever since Heath retired, but Vanimal prove me wrong last year and is growing on me more and more.
With JJ now gone, I was thinking that we should of gotten a stud TE to line up with Vance, but that has not happened. ( fingers cross he stays healthy) Who takes those snaps?
Maybe our OC might have other plans to over come another playmaker at TE as an H-Back.... JAYLEN SAMUELS. Maybe they start play more 2 RB sets, and have him spread wide, in the slot, in motion, or out of the backfield. As we all last year, he is a player and only going to get better.
Just like in the past we always used a 3rd tackle lined up as TE, in on our jumbo or shall I say our running downs. So that trend will continue.
Gimbel should e adequate if it wasn't for his fumble we would be excited about his receiving skills, he always had one or two grabs a season that was impressive. I am not saying he is going to be a star. Gentry should be JJ as a rookie.
Add in the depth this year at WR, could we be playing more 4-5 sets like how we did towards the end of last year
Here is to next year drafting a stud TE.
