"Playmaker".....Dalton Schultz.....really?
I like him and he has proven to be reliable but he definitely isn't a top 5 TE in the NFL. He doesn't have the speed, athleticism, or blocking ability that you find in elite TE's. He's simply a conscientious, hardworking guy in the right place and time. I see him as a fit for a team that generally gives equal time to two TE's based on circumstances.
We have been fortunate that he took advantage of his opportunity and overachieved. Good for him, but it is counterproductive to classify him as a "playmaker" and pay him accordingly even for one season. Overpaying for key offensive starters is one issue that needs to be addressed, but paying for a guy that is "capable" is going down a familiar, but unsuccessful path.
