Strong TE draft class would rather spend Cap dollars on veteran linebacker instead.

Not sure we’ll see lots of 12 personnel, we just signed a 5’6 receiver today who will likely have a much bigger role than our backup TE. 
 

That said, I can see Parham being a nice red zone target. 

 

I saw Harty lined up in the backfield on some plays...Davis, two of: (Hines, Cook, Shakir & Harty depending on the game situation), Knox and tight end 2... go no huddle out of that every fourth drive.

 

Not to make this a Harty post, but Diggs, Harty, Shakir in stacked trips reading coverage on who goes deep middle short with two of Cook, Hines and Knox staying in to block, with the other being the immediate hot route depending on where the pressure is coming from...

We need a backup TE. I guess he's an option.

Very deep TE class I’d rather take one in the draft and develop him in TE2 sets behind Dawson but his size does give the Bills something they don’t currently have a player who can make a contested catch 

There is a 6'8" TE in the draft that I'd like better. There are at least two other TEs (consensus #s 1 and 2) who would do a lot more in developing plays for two TE sets. 
I hope we are not being set up for an all-D draft.

Hopefully this happens. Parham has untapped talent. 

 

Be poster 2, not poster 1.

 

Everyone got unreal expectations when they saw us come up with 45.3 in cap.

 

But they neglected to factor in we were 18.7 over the cap to begin with and more importantly - we had *24* Free Agents. Even if we let most of them walk, we'd still need to replace those bodies.

 

This always meant that by and large, we'd have to look for diamonds in the rough. Players that the scouting department identified as having untapped potential and room for growth.

 

With McGovern, Harty, and possibly Parham - you can see the potential. And if they're able to reach that potential, the "overpays" will become "bargains".

Quentin Morris fills the role of TE3, would be nice to have a TE2 is this guy that?

If you want a complete TE or Dalton Kincaid, who is a great receiver.

[Chaos]

The Bills had low end TE1 production last season at high end TE1 salary cap usage.  Getting improvement in this are is one of keys for the Bills offense for 2023. 

[NewEra]

I’d take him for the minimum but would prefer to draft one in rds 1-5

[John from Riverside]

Don’t rule out tight end, either in free agency, or in the draft, which is about to produce some very good ones
 

We tried to do this before last season it just didn’t work out. They really want to run to te sets.

[Johnnyp566]

No thanks 

[Buffalo_Stampede]

Chargers had high hopes for him and they never materialized due to injuries.

[Arkady Renko]

I wouldn’t want to sign with the Bills as a free agent TE: Kroft, Hollister, Howard…

Scoring a TD on 40% of your catches is something you tell a girl a bar trying to impress her.
