Seems wildly low risk for a guy that once was pretty good, isn't that old, and is playing on an offense that doesn't demand that anything crazy from their tight ends. Plus he wanted to be here which is a nice bonus
Another Greir special in the works. How many games does he play given past injuries and “retirement”. This has a greater chance to be a disaster more than a success I think.
I wouldn't call it a potential disaster. Granted, I'm not high on the move, but only a conditional sixth round pick was traded for him and the contract he signed is only worth up to $5 million. It's a pretty low risk.
Yeah but its not even that big of a deal if he never even plays. Would we actually feel better about trading a real asset for a year of Kyle Pitts?
Big target. Low risk, high reward. It's interesting that his best two seasons in Vegas...Frank Smith was the tight ends coach.
Agree on the Grier special, the guy loves to gamble. In some cases I agree with him in this case at least it’s low risk but not really inspiring. Maybe Tanner Connor or Julian Hill are the real deal, bad thing is they thought the same of Skylar Thompson last year, so I guess we’ll see…
I'm not concerned about the cost. Trading 6th and 7th round picks is fine. But I doubt that he pans out at all, and worry now that Grier feels like he's done and we're set at tight end, even though we likely have next to nothing at the position.
Even knowing the picks are as low as they are ... it still feels like an overpay for a dude who wanted to rap and diss his ex more than play football, hasn't been healthy in years and hasn't been good even longer than that. Tight end feels like the new guard for this team where we just don't seem to give an eff and refuse to spend money and are super happy with injury prone, one-dimensional or flat out bad players. Meh
Its low risk high reward… hell if he sucks he gets cut. if he pans out, there hasnt been a more wide open seam route for him with waddle and tyreek running go routes
