Tight End

[RicFlairoftheNFL]

I looked at TE as a weak position this year. You had Gesicke and Fumigalli and everybody else wasn't spectacular. Kinda glad we didn't draft a TE if we couldn't get one of them.

fumagali wasn't even in the top 10 TE drafted lol

That's cause he sucks. Just like I said the whole dang time.

or two that can do both . the one of each thing makes you a bit predictable.

Unfortunately it's pretty tough to find tight ends like that these days.

Where's Heath Miller when you need him?

Neither of those guys will probably end up being very good. Gesicke has the athletic ability but his tape was really weak. Fumagalli was frustrating enough to watch on the Badgers. Having him on the Packers would have been awful.

I think Geseki has a legit shot at being great. Yeah, he needs work, but his physical ability and potential are off the charts.

I'd take Anthony Fasano at a reasonable price to block.

I do not think Fumagelli was very frusterating to watch as a Badger. Hornibrook was very frusterating to watch, Fumagelli bailed him out many times.

I'm not sure that at age 34 Fasano presents a decent option.

Looks like they are bringing in Mercedes Lewis for a visit. Would not offer him more than veteran minimum though.

i'd rather have him than not as he's better than any of the other backups by a long shot. they can do better than minimum if need be.

The Packers could be shopping for a #3 or even a #2 TE. If they don't see Kendricks as the guy that they want to have in 2018, he would have a dead cap hit of $600K and cutting him would save $1.55M.

Personally, I hope they are looking for a 3rd option. I think Kendricks is a better TE than what we saw in his first year in GB and if AR stays healthy, that alone is going to allow him to show what he has.

New competition from the Chargers. I wonder if they bring Gates back?
