Honest question, what is special about Chase Coffman when going to the next level?

He is from the spread and isn't a great blocker...he's not overly large, he's not fast. What exactly is going to be his game at the next level?

:spock:

Sure, let's pass up a great opportunity to grab OL, or to fill another hole to take a FOURTH tight ****ing end.

Great plan.

I really don't know why we even need to get another young TE. We have Cottam. And I'm hoping Haley and Pioli want to phase out the TE as a 'playmaker' position. I'd like to see two WR's with skill in KC for once.

Well NE drafted Ben Watson to be a playmaker at TE but he's always injured.

I wouldn't be surprised if James Casey went before him too.

Some teams are just not going to take a guy who got hurt all the time.

His injuries werent serious other than his last one. Usually they where the nagging little things that made him miss part of a game. He still played in like 50 games during his career, and if I remember right he broke the record for catches by a Tightend in D-I

Whats the problem with taking a Tight end in round 4? Especially since TE is going to be a serious need very soon.

Mecca 04-21-2009 11:05 PM

We just drafted a TE?

And Coffman really isn't all that much different, if we're going to be drafting a TE he needs to be an elite physical speciman not a nice hometown kid.

We just drafted Cottam last year.

Except Cottam is 2 inches taller and 25 pounds heavier.

The end point is, Chase Coffman isn't some can't miss prospect. He's from Missouri that's what he's got.

He's a nice kid from Missouri that works hard but isn't really all that athletic.

Pretty much, my point was that if someone wants to take a TE, argue to me to take a playmaking TE.

He will be a red-zone threat with his height and size, he has outstanding hands, he can go over the middle of the field. Hes different, but he can create mismatches pretty well in the NFL. He wont be a true Tight End, but more of a slot option in the red-zone.

TE isn't something we should even be looking at in the draft this year unless the value is phenomenal.

Mecca 04-21-2009 11:09 PM

If a team wants a slot option why wouldn't they take all of the guys in the draft who are just as big but much faster?

I'd look at Jared Cook but I feel he is a rare prospect.

Hes not a "can't miss" prospect, but he is very athletic for a TE. He was actually a Wide Reciever in High School, I lived right next to him basically, but he has put on around 40 pounds since he got to Mizzou and he still has room to grow.
