this gives  us one of the , if not the best group of te`s in the entire league, just prolly switching him out for carrier. 1 really good receiver with renfrow waller williams etc gonna leave the ol man wide open at times their will be several times next year when he catches the ball with a lot of real estate, same for moreau actually .lol

“Was Tony Gonzalez not available?” Is my favorite comment so far. 
 

I don’t really care for this, he’s not an ideal 3rd TE. Doesn’t play ST 

Can block. Good Red Zone target for Mariota (to soon lol). Good stop gap to let Foster get back 100%

I'm assuming we'll be using Waller in more WR sets this year.

 

There is also the chance that Witten doesn't make it out of camp

I’d like to see Waller used more in the slot next year, like we did with Cook in previous years.

If he makes it out of camp he could be an upgrade over Carrier. I'd be disappointed if he took snaps for Foster though (if he gets healthy in time). Looks like an acceptable RZ target which we need.

 

Only argument I have is Carrier plays a lot of special teams. Witten isn’t ideal for that.
