What kind of TE do we want for this offense?

[Coogiguy03]

All the chatter of taking a TE early when we have two that are young and have potential! Are they not athletic enough, or does Mike want a TE that he's able to use down field more like a WR to create mismatches against cb's and LB'S. Maybe they want one who's a great blocker, I thought that's what Ferguson was good at!??


Please give me your thoughts

I want one that can block and catch and doesn't require a premium pick. Kraft

I myself will be pissed if TE is even looked at prior to round 6.

We got to many issues DT, LB ,RB , OL and to lesser extent CB,WR I’d also like. QB over TE

Productive and scores touchdowns

Give me a Jason Witten clone, the kind that can actually make up for the fact that our QB is as accurate as Ray Charles.

I like the two they drafted last year.

Last time the Cowboys drafted an Air Force player (Chad Hennings) they won 3 SB's!

We are picking one, Mike loves tight ends...

Well who doesn't?

They want more playmakers on offense.

NFL.com comps:

Mayer = Witten
Kincaid = Zach Ertz
Musgrave= Goeddert
Washington = Darren Fells

Take it with a grain of salt. But since I don’t see a Gronk or Kelce comp I’m not sold on any in the first.

Inexpensive apparently

 

[Teague31]

Give me Darnell.

 

[reddyuta]

To me YAC is the most important,this is how modern TE greats have made a living.

 

[bigdnlaca]

Someone that can go forward when he goes out of bounds.

Just look at the TE’s they have in KC and San Francisco. I’m looking for someone similar to that. These days you win with the passing game and most of the top offenses have a playmaking TE. Travis Kelce led KC in receiving in the Super Bowl. One of the game changing plays against the Cowboys in the playoffs was Kittle’s acrobatic catch. I like the potential of our young TE’s but we need to cover ourselves with a veteran heading into the season just in case.

Washington is Mercedes Lewis
