[QUOTE="CountryFrog, post: 2726989, member: 70667"] I have no doubt there staff WANTS a really good TE and are trying to get one. My assumption is that they want really good players at every position. The TE's who have hurt us have been really good players. We play plenty of teams with TE's who do nothing against us because those teams don't have really good players at that position. It seems like some people on here (not necessarily you because I don't know your personal take on this) act as if there's some magical quality about throwing to a TE. That if we could just start throwing lots of passes to a TE then our offense will take the next step. I'm not sure where that idea comes from. There's no doubt that it's better to have a really good TE than not but ultimately as long as you have really good receivers then it doesn't make a whole lot of difference. Especially in college. I'm sure if we had a special talent at the position then we would throw them the ball a lot. We haven't had that, though, so we have used TE's as blockers and not much more as a result. We had a TE who almost cost us a game last year with his very limited targets in that game so I certainly had no desire to see MORE passes to that position in 2018. [/QUOTE]
