Fant is a different type of TE…why I said Parkinson is because they use him a ton of ways in pass pro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmike90 Posted February 21 Share Posted February 21 Interesting how the make up of the coaching staff has changed to be so offence focused with a 10/6 split removing the quality controls...also blatant that the offensive staff is being set up to get as much support around a rookie QB as possible.

I think Fant is what we need as a TE2, he's more of an F than Cole Kmet (Y). If you want a blocking TE you can bring Marcedes Lewis back on a cheap deal. Otherwise, if Parkinson is cheap, why not. But he's TE3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given how heavily Waldron used TEs in Seattle the #3 will play a lot so that would be a solid fit…can see us carrying 4 this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so I haven’t seen it. Here are SEA’s skill position offensive snap counts from last season: Looking at the percentages it seems they had a RB on the field for basically every play, and with those WR percentages (DK missed 1 game) it looks like they were 13 most of the time with 22 next most common, but they rotated their TEs a lot. The question there then becomes, did they do that because they wanted to, or because the ones they had were all really just good at one thing? None of those guys has a skill set like that of Kmet where he’s a solid receiving option and also a really good blocker for the position. TE2 will unquestionably get a lot of run - I’m just wondering if TE3 will get less run here due to the versatility in skill set of our TE1 compared to that of Fant.

refundmytickets Posted February 22 Share Posted February 22 Nobody wants to play a guy like Parkinson. You play him because you can’t block with your 5 big guys. Maybe Waldron is confident the Bears won’t have that problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Madmike90 Posted February 27 Share Posted February 27 Something else that has gone under the radar is the hiring of Matt Pees...Dan's son comes from a scheme that couldn't be more different to what we run...the fact Flus is willing to add all sorts of people to his staff in order to help round out his defence and look at some of the other defences around the league is a really good move... I love the fact he have a far bigger staff this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometimes he would call the screen on 2nd and long and other times he would wait until 3rd and long to call it and other times still he would do both.
