In another topic, we were discussing how ridiculous our TE room is. And it is. I'm a fan but I'm one of those guys that would like to deal DK for BIG picks. But what if we don't?
DK, Tyler, Eskridge, Fant, Will and Parkinson. That's a whole bunch of receiving threat right there.
For years we've lived on the long ball. Run, run, bomb. But what if? What if Pete is having a change in philosophy? All of the above are capable of huge YAC. Maybe we can actually get away without the huge arm guy that we all have been conditioned to believe we need on this team?
Maybe we actually don't need much more than a guy that can think on his feet, see over the line(s) and throw his targets open with short, quick strikes? I'd be lying if I said I wouldn't miss watching Tyler make some crazy over the shoulder, toe tapping TD, but there is more than one way to skin a cat. I bring this up because our FO might be looking at a QB that we haven't even considered (being as conditioned as we are). Doubtful, but we're two weeks out and I'm starting to jones.
I'm hopeful we address the lines (and CB) early. But is there a 3rd rd type QB you see that could accomplish the above with those insane weapons at his disposal?
