Dalton Kincaid won't work out at Pro Day

[stilltheguru]

45 catches not targets cuckold

But folks want Washington who has a grand total of 45 targets, not catches, but targets in his college career.

Thanks for fetching me the data boy.

With the focus on the WC offense horizontal, and MM saying he's dedicated to the run first, Kincaid is the polar opposite of what they want to do.

Kuuuntz, baby!

 

[Pass2Run]

I'm mean, a back issue doesn't usually just go away so I don't know...I have a list of a dozen to fifteen TEs I'm willing to take and bank on in this draft, which is bizarre.

I think we should take one. But I don't feel pressure to do it in the first round.

 

[Zekeats]

That's interesting.

I put my bets on Kuntz. You can't find a better athlete at TE...

Is his first name Mike?

 

[Beast_from_East]

Sorry, but I cant take a guy at 26 that is too hurt to work out in late March.

 

[Proof]

laugh all you want but teams WANT to see guys run and jump and so on where they can eyeball them closely

Now I happen to think the underwear olympics has too much influence on draft boards but it is a fact that anyone that does not work out after an injury drops in the draft.

i’m aware. more so commenting on the absurdity

Yep to risky, especially with a back - hopefully medicals give a indication about future prospects

 

[reddyuta]

did you guys actually read the tweet.i know articles are too long but surely tweets are designed to be read whole.

He is an overrated prospect if I ever saw one. Kincaid is living off of lighting up USC’s horrible defense twice last season. I was hoping Washington would draft him try thinking that he is the next Kelse. He is one dimensional the Cowboys won’t touch him in my opinion.

What? Are you saying a player can pad their stats against inferior competition?

Well, that is just poppycock according to some.

Agreed. I think if you want to take a risk at TE. Washington is the way to go. At worst. You get a 6th OL on the field at all times. Also. He has the athletics to be dominant. Just needs refinement

I am a big Washington guy. I think he would do so much for our offense especially if we are running a majority 12 personnel. He would be the perfect tight end to pair with Ferguson/Hendershot. Helps the offensive line and might even save Tyron when he lines up next to him. I don’t know if the Joneses are ready to make that type of pick because he will probably only have 20 catches. You know the board will flip out and call a 21 year old a bust for that little of production.

I know it's only one piece of information, but he sure looked fluid at the combine.

I'm not suggesting we choose him at 26 if the evaluation is that he is primarily a blocker. Although I do agree, it is sweet to think of him helping pave the way.

But if you took him later & hit the upside and he broke out in the passing game as well, lights out.

If you draft him that high. He needs to be involved in the pass game. I dont even think he cant do it. I think he was underutilized at Georgia to be honest. The guy started as a WR. He knows how to run routes.

MOST things to do with the NFL are rather absurd.

One must remember that the vast majority of those running things are NOT truly brilliant, intellectually gifted, etc.

They got where they were by family connections, who they know, etc.

He won’t be there at 58. I don’t understand the board with this narrative of picking certain players at 26. The same narrative was used with Frederick and Tyler. Washington changes are offense for the better. That is all I worry about.

Bad backs bring back bad memories of David Lafleur.

I’ll second that.

I’m out.

 

[CalPolyTechnique]

For starters, I tweeted out Thursday that tight end Dalton Kincaid would not participate in the testing, just as he didn’t during the Combine. Rest assured, there’s nothing nefarious going on, nor is Kincaid afraid to test. The tight end suffered a small fracture in his back late last season, which has prevented him from working out for scouts.

[It’s apparently just a bone fracture not a slipped/herniated disk or anything]

A broken bone is different then a chronic back condition.

For the life of me, I do not understand why people can’t understand this. I’m tired of writing it. Then, two posts below mine someone is saying they’re out on Kincaid because back injuries are bad.

Nothing structural, just a small broken bone. It hurts and needs to heal, but the back is no worse than anyone else’s once it has healed.

He couldn’t work out until a week before the pro day, so he wants to train a little before working out for teams. I don’t blame him one bit… that’s what I’d do too.

If you liked Kincaid, this injury should change nothing. If you didn’t like Kincaid then you just don’t like him. None of it should have anything to do with this small back thing.
