NO, not every thread as there are several where you just "self-flame" so our job is done before it gets started.

We don’t need an additional WRs on this team. We’re fine! I’m more concerned with TE since there isn’t anything behind the often injured Vance McDonald.

They better sign a veteran TE before the season starts. They are taking a huge risk with the current situation. McDonald has a long injury history and he's their only reliable guy. Grimble has worked his way up to mediocre.

Gentry is a stringbean TE who was playing QB a few years ago. He's a project. I didn't love this pick. They desperately needed at TE so at that point in the draft, almost any TE was a good pick but I can't see Gentry ever becoming a complete player. He might become a good receiver but i doubt he'll ever be a blocker.

It's tougher for guys that tall to be good run blockers. It took James a few years to become a good blocker and he was much stronger than Gentry when he entered the league.

I'd like to see a backup OT get some reps at TE. Max Starks played TE in short yardage before he became the starting RT.

They used some jumbo packages with Chuks as a 3rd TE last season, but I'm with you, I think they need to pick up a decent blocking TE with the current lack of depth at the position.

Dez is a tall receiver with bad hands, who lost a step, or 3 with that injury last year. No one wanted him for Months before signing with NO. Now NO doesn't even want him back. That says something right now. He's done.

Was gonna say, I don't know how much he has left in the tank. Also I really don't think we need him.

Um, hell no! I am more than happy to see how our WR stable works out. I think we will be pleasantly surprised at how well they do. No need for another AB type on the team.

Agreed, specifically I think Moncrief will blow up with Ben as his QB, not saying he'll have AB numbers but he's going to shine especially early in the season if teams try to double ju ju before they learn that won't work

I like the Moncrief pick up. I think he will be very valuable on the team and will get another contract from us.
 
Just in case anyone forgot, Dez’s mom is a crack-dealing ***** and his dad is a pimp. That’s the life he grew up in.
