That means either Jerry, or walker will be let go.
Then offensively spend 2nd or 3rd on RB. Resign Micheal Palmer and Draft or sign a pass catching TE.
Is there any good TE coming out of this year Draft?
Please no, not John Jenkins. He is not close to what he is touted to be. He's lazy and hasn't done squat at UGA this year. He's a true 3/4 NT anyways. He is not a gap penetrator like we subscribe to.
I'm really interested to see the development of Travian Robertson. I'm telling you that kid is sasquatch strong. And he runs about a 5.1 40, which is in line with the top DT's in the draft. He was about 305 lbs coming out of college, but I bet he's upwards of 320 now.
And then their's Massaquoi. I really want to see him do the hybrid DE/LB role like Biermann.
I hope it's just because they're rookies and in pure development mode that we haven't seen them.
As for TE's, yes, this draft is full of quality TE's.
Tyler Eifert from ND.
Josh Fauria from UCLA
Dion Sims from Mich St.
Philip Lutzenkirchen from Auburn.
Zach Ertz from Stanford.
All at least 6'6 250 and run around 4.6-4.7 40's.

I'm thinking that if Nolan sticks around, we start seeing a shift in player philosophy towards the 3-4 hybrid. This means we're going to be looking for someone like Haloti Ngata, or at least a space eater. KoG might be excited by this.

i just thought of that, my toes was wiggling as if my feet wants to do the happy dance.
Please TD, work your magic and bring a bigass DT home! dont care if its FA or Drafts.
