resilient part 2 Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 After looking at Ertz and Goedert playing TE for the Sheagles, I want a TE even more. Give Dallas a game changer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nextyearfordaboyz Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 Now that we are a week removed from the Jarwin explosion, are we off the silly notion that we no longer need a TE? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just want better insurance for when he misses 3-4 plus games like he has the past two years i gues I am just in the minority that feel we have been critically hurt the past two years by Smith not being on the field and when in the field not playing at 100 % this also is what just makes me want to scream how in the world did Dak get in this conversation about Smith playing hurt and not well in the TB game and me wanting to have better quality back up in his place When you lose one of your best players it hurts, yes. The argument here is not whether it hurts, but what caliber of resources you are going to invest in insuring the position against injury. If your reasoning for taking an OT in the 2nd round is to have him play in place of Tyron in ~3 games a season, well, I would say you can allocate your resources a lot better than that.

I think he came out too early but he is a powerful runner with some sneaky agility. He would make a great back up to Zeke.

That is a reasonable point except I really don’t see very many options to infuse some one playing everyday on this line up I know the thought is improved TE I just don’t see that coming out of college right now I could be wrong and the Hurns injury means we have a new hole. I can’t be 100% but doubt he will be ready come oct but maybe and that type of injury is very debilitating the every day thing is also why I see improving Heath or Wilson as an option but I guess if a Ertz Kelsee or Gronk is available I guess but again I don’t see some one like that making it to us even if there is one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly defensive end and wide receiver as well. If you are drafting a guy as insurance for Tyron Smith, your hope is that he's never going to play a snap at left tackle, in the short AND long term. Now if you want him to replace Collins in a year, then that's slightly more interesting. But that significantly diminishes the "Tyron is injury prone" reason to draft an OT.

We can't find a stud TE in the range where stud TEs are often found, in the deepest TE class in memory? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plan9misfit Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 I still love Christian Wilkins. And I’d give up A TON of picks for Trevor Lawrence. When he fills out physically, he’ll be 6’6” (potentially) 245 pounds with a Peyton Manning level arm. Good. God. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
