Coffman looks like he has pretty good hands but he looks too much like Cottam to me, except Cottam is bigger and faster. Cottam didn't catch as many balls in college bc of injuries but he did show that he has pretty good hands. Cottam does have big time potential. Didn't he run like a 4.7 or something. That's really fast for 6'7" 270.

I don't see us picking a TE this year unless we trade Gonzo. How many TEs do you want on the roster??? And most of the the time, the 3rd TE has to be able to be a back up fullback.

Coffman has great hands and great feet. He has great body coordination all around.

Yes, because you can become the #1 all time pass-catching TE in the NCAA by not being able to stay on the field. And in another post you said he wasn't athletic...huh? Have you seen him catching the ball or getting YAC yardage? Your statements are uninformed at best. You probably wanted Vernon Davis, didn't you? Is he the best TE in the draft based on your "measurables"? No, but he will end up being in the top 3 after a couple years.

If Coffman falls to us in the 3rd round i would take him but i just don't think we are in a position to take him any higher because of other needs.

The Chiefs can find a center, guard, or RT in the third round.

TE is a low priority position, with or without Tony Gonzalez.

I was pissed last year when the Chiefs took Cottam with Jeremy Zuttah still on the board.

yeah Cottam has the better speed and is a better blocker, but he doesnt compare to Coffman in receiving skills. Coffman has exceptional hands, body control, and focus. He would be a huge red zone threat along w/ D Bowe.

what are you basing "he's a better blocker" on? Not really looking to pick on it, but on college or the 10 plays he has played in the nfl
