The tight end

[Peppermint9030]

Everyone said ok now we got moose he will free up smitty, no more triple coverages. Ok true but our passing game and play calling and routes are straight from the 70's. There is no reason that when we come out in a 4 wr set we have smitty and moose on opposite sides and king and rosario in the slots. What can king and roasrio possibly do to be a down field threat? We need jarrett, smith, moose and a playmaking te out there, a gates, a winslow a gonzalez thats why I was pissed we didnt jump on it when kc was trading gonzo. A TE of that caliber adds so much to your bunch sets and iforms just carve up the middle of the field on streaks, fades etc. A lb can cover king or rosario 1 on 1, they cant cover a great TE like gates, winslow or gonzo 1 on 1 forcing a safety up top, which by its self frees up smitty (cant keep rodgers down low and rolle up top the whole game on smit) and the run game than you look at moose on the other side. I just dont get it why we always have to have these full back/ tes out there for run blocking (yes good at it) but they cant make plays on the recieving end or seperate from anyone. Our only downfield threat is smith and thats it. Id love for us to invest on the TE position its a whole new dimension.

Draft Jared Cook, TE, South Carolina

Guys like Winslow, Gates, and TG don't come around very often. That's why you could only name 3. Less than 10% of teams have that type of playmaking TE. We need tight ends who can block. That's what we got.

They're good at it.

Don't tell me, either, that "well we can bring King and Rosario to block, too." And you think we're predictable now? Everytime a team saw that our superstar, hall-of-fame-bound tight end was subbing out for King or Rosario......RUN!!!

[Peppermint9030]

yea but whos looking to be shipped? gonzo and winslow. And no I dont think we would be more predictable, because even if we show run and than pass with king and rosario its ineffective. Put king and TG out there and see how much more effective our passing game is from the iform, strong i etc.

Dwayne Jarrett is the answer to your problems.

We have the TEs already we just have to use them(FOX). However Rosario was open on several occasions last night and Jake didn't throw to him.
