Numbers aren't everything. I know that, but he's faster than ertz, taller and according to measurables, can change direction better. Should we be patient with him. Can he develop into a pro bowl tight end? He obviously has to master route running and blocking, but ertz didn't emerge right away. It wasn't until 2016 when he was 26.

Guess time will tell. Measurables are not the be all end all when it comes to football players tho

 

[Londonboy]

Given Our lack of quality at the position, I was hoping to have seen a bit more from Him, hopefully He'll be ready to make an impact next season. otherwise TE is a major offseason need.

I know that. It’s all we can go off I. The beginning . It is interesting though that Schultz beats him in most measurable.

Witten didn’t start until about December of his rookie year.

I believe it’s possible but unless he gets reps, it will take longer..

I just think Shultz needs time.
He came into league fairly raw, from an offense that didn't use him much in the passing game
He may end up ok

 

[Tabascocat]

He will be fine, just needs time. He is almost a perfect mold of what Dallas wants at TE.

It's an interesting concept of thought,,,yet,,, after seeing the wasted potential over the years of quality talent ,continually
' mark time' on the roster/bench to the point where, when they are given their "shot" they usually end up over-rev'n their casing-liners in short order, leading to what's currently being enjoyed with the #87 due to lack of fielded playing time/real football world conditioning

Schultz not on the field because of blocking. He was regarded as a polished blocker coming out, but hasn't show it in the nfl. We're one of the only teams that will sit a receiving tight end for bad blocking. Gates was bad his whole decade 1/2 career ,but they schemed around it. I'd give him practice when the back up rb is in so he can't hurt zeke. use him mostly as a receiving TE, but when Zeke comes out, try a run or two to get him som practice.

 

[KingRah]

AT some point, this team has to show it can scout and draft number one Tight ends. Parcells found and developed Witten. He's the only success story since Novacek and he was signed from the cardinals.

Dalton has done very well so far for a mid round rook.

Whatever a TE's performance has been with us, they're probably twice as good with another team. We try to force everyone to play like the legends of the team. Witten's great for what he did. Every tight end won't be Witten. Maybe he can be a great receiver and solid blocker. Witten was a great receiver and good blocker. It's probably the same for Rico. Another team would have 5 tds with rico. Dak already missed him on two this year. WE suck post Parcels at developing TEs.

Rico would've been cut from most other teams. PS fodder.

I do agree, however, that we tend to not use players correctly, rather we try to fit them into what we want them to be.

Garrett's philosophy is basically mimic Jimmy's cowboys. It's not a bad philosophy, but be open to change. Everyone won't be Witten.Witten was basically the Keyshawn Johnson or M Irvin of TEs. He was nt a burner or super athletic. He ran great great routes, was physical, smart and had great great hands. If you have a more athletic TE , Use that to win games. Think about this, J Hanna ran a 4.49 and was athletic. He developed into a good blocker. They never used him. How the heck do you have a good blocking TE that runs 4.49 and never make a linebacker cover him 20 yards up field?

Hannah was terrible at tracking the ball. Just not good as a downfield threat.

If JG is mimicking Jimmy, he's doing a terrible job of it!!!!!!!!!

I wish hanna would've unretired. He would've started.

How can you say that when he was thrown to 4 times a year? M Bennett looked terrible with us too. He immediately became good when he left. he was also one of the top 2 blocking TEs in the league.
