Brineinmystool is among the UDFA least likely to make the team, in my opinion.

There are THREE guys in front of him. He's mediocre athletically, and a TE who can't block. Like that's his BIGGEST knock, that he's a shit blocker. Tre Watson is just as likely if not more so to make it.

I doubt any of these UDFA guys make the 53.

BWillie saw a highlight reel and fell in love!

Chiefs TE Jake Briningstool says that four teams besides K.C. had interest in him and mentioned that it was very appealing to learn from Travis Kelce and others in the TE room: "Being around championship culture, that's really what attracted me the most."

He'll be "around" championship culture, alright. He'll be on the practice squad.

We had 4 TE’s on the opening roster last year, so I’d say there’s a decent chance here. His competion is the 4th TE last year, Hendershot, who seems like one of the most vulnerable players on the roster to be beat by someone like this kid.

Andy calling a UDRFA seems like he’s a player they favor being on the team.

I don't know man. I think he has a really good shot to make the roster.

You can favorably view Bloodinmystool's chances of making the roster and also not call Jared Wylie a bum just because he had a slow start and a season ending injury in year one. It's possible to do both.

Why are you so against the guy? Smh :evil: .. just let camp and preseason games play out and we'll see how it goes. If the likes of CARSON STEELE can make the roster than this kid has a damn good shot imo because Wiley has proved nothing thus far and is coming off an injury.

I'm really not.

I just don't see anything there.

Steele had a much more open path.

This kid has two veterans and a mid round pick last year in front of him. AND Hendershot, who's a better blocking TE.

I don't see it.

He’s looks like Travis Kelce

Kelce was a third round pick that would have gone higher but had character concerns.

You guys are nuts.

He's going home soon... too big and slow for a WR, and too small and slow for TE

His audition here was a convenient formality, a kind gesture

Wylie may start the season on IR

Badger looks like an outstanding red zone threat.

I think we have found the fans camp darling this season.

I could see that. I think that Badger has a chance to be a camp darling as well.

I am going to say something stupid, but I'm high, as usual.

After watching a lot of his film, I wouldn't be surprised if he made the team, and I wouldn't be surprised to see him get snaps at receiver. He appears to be a more talented catcher of the ball than Gray.

I am not saying he is some offensive weapon, or a hidden gem, etc. but he is a taller target, but it's his slower speed that could actually benefit the entire offense.

Our receivers are likely going to all be 4.4 guys or faster. A slower player, who has a size advantage over most defenders, should have the least talented defensive back covering him, and the space on the field where he would be working probably isn't going to be crowded because those speedy receivers are going to pull those other defenders deep.

Imagine Rice, Worthy, Hollywood, with Kelce at TE, and Briningstool in motion. I know people love Gray, but if used properly, I feel like he could be more of a chess piece than Gray.

I appreciate Meck's dedication to his feelings about Briningstool.

I must square away a few things in relation to some points from my perspective...

JB did, in fact, run a 4.75 and not a 4.85.

Peyton Hendershot is not on our roster.

At TE, we have:

Travis Kelce
Noah Gray
Jared Wiley
Robert Tonyan
Jake Briningstool
Tre Watson


Wiley might start out on the PUP. We know what we have in Kelce and Gray.

Robert Tonyan was a collegiate WR who became a TE in the NFL. He's not a great blocker. Like JB, he especially sucks as an inline Y. He's gotta be a F type.

Briningstool is undersized a bit and struggles with inline blocking but is good blocking in space as an F.

Tre Watson struggled a bit as a blocker as well. He really struggled against speed/blitzing linebackers.

JB was Brugler's 10th-rated TE and played 4 years at Clemson. Watson was his 29th and played 1 year at Texas A&M and 3 at Fresno State. Most boards had JB around that ranking and Watson was everywhere but in the top 20 for most.


The question for me isn't whether or not JB can beat out Watson. It's also really not about his blocking because they all kind of suck ass at it. It's about whether he can beat Tonyan's experience. Making the 53 isn't easy, but he's got a shot.

CBS sports named Elijah Badger their #1 overall free agent after the draft.

We signed nfl.com’s #1 safety, cornerback, and tight end. Veach is always working

Meh I'm not really invested. I guess I just felt like stirring the pot.

Yeah -- Warren looks like Kelce out there, IMO.

I can't think of ANYONE other than him over the last several years who has apart from him. Maybe Pitts? But even Pitts was more straight line explosion than that sort of gliding agility.

Nobody looks like Kelce. He's damn unique. Wiley actually kinda did to me, but stiffer. Which is to say...not really.

PUP.

But yes, that's how he'd make the team. But he'd have to beat out Tonyan in the process.

I just think it's interesting that we gave him better guaranteed dollar figure to sign as a UDFA than 7th rounders get.

I just listened to that podcast with Jason Dunn.

He got me a little hyped for Briningstool, I can't lie.

The name is still off-putting to me. Hard to get excited about salted poop water.

Badger going undrafted is crazy when you watch his tape. I'd be surprised if he doesn't make noise this camp tbh. He's different to the other guys in the WR room.

He's a really good pickup. It's great to have legitimate options at that position.

Jake Briningstool the next XFL player hyped by CP as some UDFA steal

If he ends up making it in the NFL and if Kohls doesn't reach out to him for an endorsement deal then they are missing a huge opportunity.
