Shoonmaker has got to go!

[johneric8]

I don't know what some of you are smoking, but Shoon had like 14 receptions last year with zero tds at only 132 yards. There are no NFL tangibles he possess and his ceiling is low. This is one of those Jerry things where he hangs on because of draft position, Trigg has monster ability, they should roll with him this year and get him much needed experience, lots of pundits thought Trigg was easily a top 100 player but dropped because of character issues. I know many of are gun shy with randory gregory types, but there is sometimes another side to the coin and guys just have to mature or got a bad rap. I just feel shoon is useless, I think Trigg has a lot to prove and a hell of alot more talent.

Yeah if you can get a 6th or better for him have at it. But cutting him makes no sense. His problem seems to be opportunity.

yeah I think he’s lost his burst and athleticism. Not that he was all world but he had it and I saw a high ceiling. But he’s lost it since his injury. Those 2 yards per catch in feel anyone can do….(I know he’s not that bad but he should have better production.

His injury was a really bad concussion. Media says he looks real good in this camp.

Schoon has done exactly what he was drafted to do. Block and special teams.

Spann Ford does neither. Your undervaluating Schoon's value.

Spann-Ford played 243 snaps on STs and he is a better blocker than Schoonmaker which is part of why he took over the 2nd TE role.

I understand that it's unlikely for schoon to traded, but the guy is below average and lacks any real strength. I just don't see how you don't go with spann ford or trigg over shoon if they keep balling... Some guys are ready to come into the league and contribute, it looks to me like trigg could be one of those guys with his abilities.

Trigg was not drafted for a reason.

Michael Trigg's Draft Profile on Ourlads


Ourlads' Profile:

2026 Guide: What Ourlads’ NFL Scouting Services said about MICHAEL TRIGG:

Baylor | Hometown: Tampa, FL | HT: 6033 | WT: 238 | 40 time: 4.65 | Hand: 1012 | Arm: 3412 | Wing: 8418

Two year starter. First-team All-Big 12 in 2025. Began his collegiate career at Southern Cal in 2021 and transferred to Ole Miss in 2022-23 before arriving at Baylor. He's a long, thick, well- sized tight end. Athletic with exceptional speed, he is able to stretch the defense both vertically and horizontally. Has a good burst and ability to read the holes in zone coverage. Explodes out of his stance and can get to top speed in a hurry running the seam. Shows good arm length on his catch radius. Makes the tough catches consistently. Playing a slot receiver is his true calling as he can be a mismatch for inside defenders. With movement and various alignments he can cause major difficulties for the defense. Strong enough to anchor the line attached but blocks better as a move tight end in space. As a move blocker, tracks his man with a good aiming point and flashes ability to sustain blocks. Athletic enough to play the role of big receiver but blocking is not his strength. Struggles in run blocking, with his hand placement and getting knocked off his base. Pad level too high, needs to settle in and square up. Too many drops from a next level guy. Concentration may be the issue, because he flashes brilliance at other times. Overall, has had an inconsistent career, needs to prove himself every game this season. It appears he has reenergized himself. Needs to continue to sharpen his game. Has shown that he can make the plays at tight end, now he needs to show the true consistency needed by a pro.

2025 Stats: 50-694, 13.9 ypr, 6 TD. Draft projection: 2nd/3rd round

Trigg looked better in a the few series he played than shoon ever has. This will show me if jerry is finally getting smarter and getting over his player coddling. Trigg has some serious upside and seems to also block.

Yeah, JJ isn't going to be dumping Shoon anytime soon, especially since he was a HIGH draft pick. His pride won't allow it.............

 

[erod]

It's Ferguson and Spann-Ford, plus the best blocking tight end they can find.
