Position TE

I'd keep both if I were in charge

Yup. That's the thing, I like both. All too often here on this site others want you to polarize and say you hate one player because you like another.

 

[Blast From The Past]

The seam route is just one route a TE runs, and I don't think it's used more than a few times a game. Shultz does every other route better.

I'd really like the season to play out in order to see the lay of the land so to speak. Jarwin can run other routes. Shultz and Jarwin can compliment each other and we will be fine.

Inconsistent how? Playing 2nd string? Come on child, wake up.

He's barely produced outside of a few big plays? Where have you been and why are you banking on a player we've so rarely seen?

It's weird, you act like the onus is on me to prove he's not all that, when the fact that he's so rarely produced at an elite level should put the onus on you to prove that's he's not a jag, and all you have is a 'child please'?

When they drafted Shultz I did not think he would be an instant starter But I did think he could become one. And he is our best all round TE

I was the opposite. I was all on board when we first drafted him, but lost my enthusiasm as time went on.

Day late, but whatever. Saw this article just now on our TE situation.

The stat that stood out to me was that Jarwin's best season 2019 was only 365yds & 3 TDs. I thought he had a lot more yards than that.

It appears everyone did.

I think the combo of Darwin, Schultz and Sprinkle should combine to make a pretty solid TE corps.

I'm also wondering what Artayvious Lynn has to offer. He was a good blocker for TCU at 6'6", 260.

Project - Add 30 lbs and turn him into OT.

Schultz wasn't really given the chance to emerge and show what he can be at best.
Really Didn't help matters that the Witten/Garrett fiasco utterly slowed any chance of progress he could make.

- By being so limited, so less reps and seemingly phased out by having other guys in front of him, i believe his self-confidence really deemed to a new low.
including shaky drop passes hands.

- With a new HC that finally sent Witten on a his way in a different direction, and Jarwin unfortunate ACL injury
that gave Schultz his big chance to show what he can do.

- Where would Schultz be right now if Witten and Garrett where still here ?
He’s great injury insurance for Jarwin who not only will we see if he’s anything close to his previous playing form, but there’s already been instances where he’s either missed time
or very limited by injury.

- I found it ironic that vet Blake Bell a blocking TE, signed for 1 year and returned right back to where he departed in FA, ..to KC Chiefs.
But we’ve found another blocking role TE to compete with McKeon.

- However I do believe we won’t re-sign Schultz when he becomes a FA, because i expect some NFL team to overpay for his services based off 2020 performance.
And why would we be investing & committing more money in two TEs ?

I see us keeping four TEs again.
1) Jarwin
2) Schultz
3) Sprinkles
4) McKeon

I liked Blake Bell, he was tough and versatile.

But MM had no clue how to use him.

Blake was a blocking specialist- he was basically another version of James Hanna. He wasn't gonna be much of a factor in pass game.
Its the same with his continuing role in KC Chiefs ..

Schultz did well with how many QB’s last year? He reminds me a lot of Chris Cooley.

For some odd reason, a large number of posters only see the value of downfield plays. And yet, one reason KC lost the super bowl was due to the inability to move the chains, to make some positive plays when protection broke down. You need your short stuff guys just as badly as the long stuff guys.

Schultz is back on my radar. He got almost twice as many yards as Jarwin with the same 3 TDs & I don't think it was all against NY.

He was our best in line blocker, could also line up at FB. Was not a great pass catcher but was not a liability. And was good on teams.

Schultz and Jarwin as a combo is intriguing. This offense is as stacked as I remember ever seeing. If Dak is capable of making 4th and 5th reads he could have a 75% completion percentage for the year.

i like this TE group.
reminds me when we had Billy Joe Dupree and Doug Cosbie.
solid group of good players.
