Tony Gonzales dropped pretty much everything his rookie year. I hope Ebron can get it together...

It doesn't have to be Amaro, but I for one will be extremely disappointed and shocked if we don't grab a TE between 1 and 4, especially if we somehow end up with DeSean Jackson... counting on Kelce is a straight up roll of the dice.

TE is too important in this offense, and to Smith, to leave to chance IMO.

I don't think a tight end rotation of Fasano, Kelce and McGrath is leaving it to chance.

Consider that McGrath effectively played only one year of college football at a school smaller than most average high schools and was quite effective in getting open, catching the ball and turning up-field against NFL defenders in what was his rookie season. That speaks of a whole hell of a lot of upside yet to come.

And Fasano is a very solid all-around NFL tight end.

If Kelce is cleared medically, I have absolutely no qualms about fielding that trio as our TE group and think that using a draft pick on a tight end is tantamount to throwing it in the trash bin. Especially after using a very high third on Kelce in last years draft.

Now, if Kelce still has medical issues, then, by all means, I hope that they select a tight end.

Sorry dude, but that current trio sucks balls...

Kelce is a complete unknown, he may NEVER fully recover from the microfracture, those are notoriously hard to fix.

McGrath, so far, is the only proven decent player of the three... he's no great shakes but showed signs of being a viable #2 with decent all around skills.

Fasano though? dude has been an absolute bust for us and sucked during his last year in Miami as well... 8.1ypc is AWFUL, its just awful, and he didn't do much better than that during his brief healthy periods here, we could cut him today and I wouldn't blink an eye.

Dump him and get a young playmaker in the draft, THATS a trio I could live with.

And even if Kelce DOES fully recover, we still don't know if the guy is any freaking good... like I said, HUGE gamble.

Fasano and McGrath are both #2 TE. Kelce is an unknown.

and his second yr too.

here is really, really good read about it (just do a search of the article for keyword drops and start there)

If Ebron falls to us, we should cut Fasano and take the dead money hit...it clears just under a million in cap space this year, but 5/yr the next two years.

Ebron
Kelce
McGrath

Me likey

There is not a chance in hell that they are going to leave the TE position to three guys that have a total of one year of NFL playing experience.

agreed.

With any other coaching staff, I'd agree.

Anthony Fasano is ****ing garbage...

I'm in on ebron

Atleast one AFC personnel exec says this years TE's blow donkey dong...

I'd take Jake Murphy or Marcel Jensen as much as I would Ebron or Amaro.

I don't think the top tier guys are "elite" level dudes.

I agree with his statement that none of these guys are better than Eifert was last year. He went 21 in a relatively weak draft class.

Put it this way, if one of the top 4 WRs were available (Watkins, Evans, Beckham, Cooks) I would probably take them over Ebron. I think our FO would too.
