Go look at those games, whether it was the secondary, our RB, our offensive line, our QB, we got bullied.
Go get the biggest baddest TE in the draft. You have the resources and know-how to make this guy a great player. Then, you have your Bubba Franks for 5 years on a rookie deal.
You can grab Gibbs, but you already have Gibbs with Pollard. You tagged Pollard so you wouldn't be forced to draft a TE, not to mention he's good. But we need someone to protect our guys like Pollard, and Dak.
Zeke was always the best blocking back, because he had to pick up the slack when our offensive line wasn't cutting it, or the scheme was set up so he could block. If you draft a TE who can block, it really opens it up for any back, and gives you and advantage by having six guys who can block, and Washington can block, and, if given the opportunity, he can really kill you in the passing game. But go watch his blocking, and he's just such a solid player. And, not to sound cliche', but he adds a dimension you didn't have day 1.
If they don't draft, Washington, I suspect they'll draft Noah Gindorff for the same reasons.
You really do want a blocker at TE. We're missing the big, bad arse, bulldozer effect that can trump a George Kittle.
Having Washington as your TE is going to make any back you draft that much better.. which could help them have a better season than some of the top backs. It all starts up front.
Plus, he has potential to be a big time threat in the passing game, with Lunda Wells coaching him.
