Besides craving a receiver with the speed to beat defenses deep, Miami will target players that also have the elusiveness to create more yards after catch on intermediate routes. Anthony Fasano’s 2.2 YAC average was worst among starting tight ends, 60th of 62 overall. Brian Hartline is a keeper, but his 3.4 YAC average was better than only four receivers that played even nearly as much.
Incidentally, the Colts’ T.Y. Hilton, whom Miami passed up to take Michael Egnew, had a 7.7 YAC average – fifth in the league – mostly from the long TD passes that were missing from Miami’s offense.

As I've said, Te really is our issue, moreso than Wr imo
Harder position to learn in the NFLdjphinfan likes this. -
Good to see that they are quite aware of issues with short yardage and the ability to break tackles. Wonder if this might bring someone like Eddie Lacy into play if he's around in round 2 or maybe even a Shonn Greene if the contract fits.

Thing is, even a mediocre blocking Te still has to learn the routes and the blocking system.

this is all the more reason I want the idiot Ireland fired . in years past I could comfort myself with some hope but I just dont see any rebounding until Ireland is gone.
Now if Miami should sign some really good Players I shall retract my comments and for our sake I hope to be able to take back these comments but knowing the sorry *** gm I have a bad ,bad feling we will be saying the same things next year.
