Twitter: Every 20+ yard reception by Blake Jarwin

This is why I don't see TE as a priority.......let this kid start and coach up his blocking skills. Between he and Shultz ( ms?), we're fine IMO.

 

[Gaede]

He does have some skill. I'm perplexed as to why the last coaching staff didn't use him very much. That said, if there's a playmaking TE available at the right spot, I'm not going to let Jarwin stop me from drafting him.

Now, a video is needed displaying his blocking skills. It would shed light on how well Jarwin's blocking could be coached up.

There is no other team in the world that plays Jarwin on 30% of snaps last year and Witten the other 70%. Sooo dumb. Witten better not be catching passes next year over this guy....anyone who wants that has very little football IQ. I remember there were a few dull bulbs on here saying they thought Witten should be out their over Jarwin..LOL comical.

Sure. Not like if you acquire a playmaker TE that you can't use both TEs frequently.
The Eagles have Ertz and still use Goedert a whole bunch.
Couple years ago New England used Gronk and Martellus Bennett plenty.
Think it would add a whole new element to the offense...

An elite new aged receiving TE could take this offense over the top. Jarwin has shown a few flashes, but isn't that type of player whom will force teams to gameplan against. Both the Super Bowl Teams have such a player, a tremendous mismatch where they have to be doubled on every play.

As one poster said, you can pair up two good TE's, find me the Ertz as we already have the Goedert in Jarwin!

This is why I was so upset when we brought Witt back. They tried to say Witt wouldn't even get half of the snaps. I didn't believe a word of it and sure enough garrett and moore didn't have the bones to tell him to have a seat.

I tend to agree. especially if you get a little creative with max protect using a lineman as a TE

I also agree with this ….

It’s worth noting that tight ends were invisible in the Packers’ offenses under McCarthy. I bet you can’t even name a single tight end during that run from 2009 to 2016 where they made the playoffs every year.

Instead, he likes a pass catching fullback out of the backfield.

That makes it even less important. I’m on the Blake Jarwin train and heck, yeah I’d give Dez a shot too, why not?

 

[Hawkeye0202]

All I'm saying is he's shown enough IMO to deserve a chance to start before burning a high draft pick on a rookie.

LOL .....you don't a little research to huh? You're exactly right ........noticed it last week. Of course, that's not to say things won't be different here though.

 

[charron]

it's not all good for jarwin. His first 7-8 games this year he was catching only 64% of his targets. Infact the only 2 guys catchint above 75% was witten and zeke. Go look at his NYJ game, all of 4 yards. Definately worth keeping, but still needs another guy who can develop behind him.

Jermichael Finley, but maybe I only remember him because I had him on some of my fantasy teams.

IDK man......one thing about the Eagles TEs many fans are not aware, their TEs have more receiving targets ( esp Ertz) than any TEs in the league. Again, like I just said in another post, I'm excited to him as a starter with the full package.

This is my point, give him a chance as a starter.

How can anyone watch this and than say Dak stinks and can't throw the ball or it's always off and not accurate.....

To comment on your post and reason for the video, I think Jarwin can be very decent. However, I wouldn't mind getting Ebron, Henry or Eifert to go with Jarwin.

I agree. Out of the 31 catches Jarwin had this season 11 were for 20 or more yards and of those 11, 3 of them were for TD's.

At whatever round that may end up being and there are players at positions that we actually need help at, I hope the Cowboys pass on that TE and get needed help instead.

No you're right......in fact, 35-40 passes by the TE position were the most under Mike offense with the Packers.
