The Jokeman Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 Cameron Brate might be a cap casualty, he could also be a good 2nd TE here as I can't see him costing a lot of cap money toss in wouldn't count against the UFA loss/gain formula. Also he'd be cheaper than a WR. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we stuck to discussing players all offseason that would be a huge step up from the usual topics that dominate between Feb and June.

Process Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 What's the point of signing a second TE? Do we really think Dorsey can figure out how to use both? The last two offseasons we've signed a vet #2 TE in the spring just to end up cutting them before the season starts. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starrymessenger Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 As a receiving TE I've liked what I've seen from Morris. Would have liked to see more of him. And Shakir. Hines, etc...I'll say this for McD, he was right to sit Bernard (outside of a few ST assignments). I think Bernard was 100% a McD pick and is a good illustration of how limited this HC is and how things will continue to suffer under the mantra of the process. No doubt intangibles are important but only when in connection with some kind of actual talent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LABILLBACKER Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 No....the top priority HAS to be OL and WR2....I wouldn't even consider a defensive player till the 5th round... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt intangibles are important but only when in connection with some kind of actual talent. So it's kind of interesting, I read an article on Beane. Basically as a young multi-sport athlete, he was always under-sized and epitomized the "it's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog" mantra. McDermott was cast in the same mold (albeit, with a more restrained temper) as a DB. I wish I could find the link, IMHO it sort of shed some light on why Beane and McDermott may over-value under-sized players with "good work ethic" "good background" etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
