DoleINGout Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Pretty good investment but I'm not convinced he is a difference maker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoleINGout Posted April 6, 2018 Author Share Posted April 6, 2018 Honestly this seems to me like a precursor move to a potential Gronk trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How is this a precursor move to a Gronk trade? There is nothing that correlates. This is a flyer pick up at best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Soko Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 He, Dorsett, and Britt vying for that roster spot. Solid signing with a little potential. He’s better than Britt and Dorsett as a receiver IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just a thought that they will acquire these littlw pieces as a backup plan in the event of a trade of that magnitude just to protect themselves a little bit.

LD696 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 He had good production in Philly his first two years, then got a bad case of dropsies. Still a better option than Britt or Dorsett, as others already said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Signing a JAG WR is a precursor to trading the best tight end of all time? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its more to do with his position, (slot), size, (tall), and the combination of signing Troy Nikolas and not cutting Dwayne Allen. On top of the rumors, it is just my observation that it seems like they are building around the potential loss of Gronk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I just don't think signing two guys who are long shots to make the rosters has anything to do with the Gronk scenario. If they thought there was any chance Gronk was going anywhere, I doubt they would have moved a weapon like Cooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Cooks was moved more likely due to their disinterest in signing him long term and because he is limited in what he offered them. The only correlation between them is that they each can stretch the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this were true, they wouldn't have tried to extend him. They were interested, the price was just too high. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
