Bob in STL Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 We haven't had a good TE in like 10 years since Jay R. left the team, we also haven't been to the playoffs in 10 years - After watching Olsen I saw the connection. A slight exaggeration, but what a difference a solid TE could make on this team. New England can draft 2 good TE's in one draft and we have not drafted a good one in over a decade. Something is very wrong with that.
Bufcomments Posted January 17, 2011 Posted January 17, 2011 Anyone else see a pettern here??? Most if not every playoff team has a quality pass cathcing TE. Green Bay may be the only excpetion but only due to the injury of Jermichael Finely. Either in FA or the draft this position has to be addressed. My hunch is that Gailey would use TE's as recievers if he had anyone better than Lee Evans' ankle killer Stupar to throw to. When the Bills were doing their thang back in the 90's we had Pete Meetzalars the best TE we every had and boy did Kelly use him. Having a above average TE makes teams defend the whole field, if we can get a good TE we would have a much better offense, that and a RT ofcourse. New England can draft 2 good TE's in one draft and we have not drafted a good one in over a decade. Something is very wrong with that. Something has been wrong in our scouting dept for 10 yrs. Especially when one of the TE is from your own backyard...
