mountainpd Posted April 27, 2018 Share Posted April 27, 2018 I appear to be in the minority but I prefer Gesicki. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerica Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 There’s something so awkward about the way he runs. I guess being 6’6’’ does that to you. Im happy we got a TE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tetsujin Posted April 28, 2018 Author Share Posted April 28, 2018 I guess if we signed J. Thomas last year, we really don't care about the blocking from the TE1 position. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrubes20 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Gesicki is very much in the Evan Engram mold. He’s gonna suck up a bunch of the Landry targets next year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericsvibe Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I am so happy that we finally got a TE. If you look at the TE's on the roster, they are all move TE's. Not a single one is a blocking TE. I wonder if the Phins are going to pull a page out of the Patriots playbook and put in the swing O-lineman as the blocking TE in the redzone. Gesicki is a super sized WR. A former basketball standout, he has probably the best hands for a TE in the draft. He has a huge catch radius, and can go up and get contested balls with ease. He is the type of receiver that you tell the QB to place the ball over his head, allowing him to block out smaller LB's and CB's. Gesicki is a match up nightmare. He doesn't have elite acceleration, but he doesn't need it. Day one starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rgossett07 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 Love the Baker pick. We now have Ohio State’s last two leading tacklers. I’m sure Raekwon had some good things to say.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was saying the same thing when he was taken. 4 move TEs on the roster. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilseb93 Posted April 28, 2018 Share Posted April 28, 2018 I think Miami has nailed their first 3 picks and I don't say that lightly. I'm so happy right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a very stiff runner, he has good hands and decent straight line speed, but he will NEVER make anyone miss in the open field and his change of direction is dreadful. And don't ask about blocking. He's also not at all physical. He's super lanky and it's hard to believe he weighs 250 looking at him on the field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gesicki is the seam threat with terrific hands that is great at “going after the ball”. If you need/want a more traditional TE, Goedert is your guy. It makes all the sense in the world that Gase would want a move TE, since that’s what he’s always tried to incorporate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
