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.
