That's not his game.
That's not his style of football.
But he can make himself available to the quarterback.
He can use his coverage awareness to find open grass and sit down between zone defenders and move the steps.
I think that's what he's going to be.
Someone who works underneath and intermediate levels of the field.
who has size at the point of attack, that is still going to make defensive backs tackle him in the open field.
He is not the receiver of Loveland.
He is not the receiver of Komet.
But he does add value to your team right now.
It's your point, Lawrence.
A year from now, we could be talking about him as the number two tight end in Chicago.
I think he will.
I think you'll see him in line, but I think he will not be at the point of attack at a high rate in the run game.
And that's fine because you are really essentially paying him to stress defenses in the pass game.
So it's your point, Speeds.
If you have 13 personnel on the field, you can make it look like 12 personnel now.
With Colson Loving, you can make it look like 11 personnel now with Cole Clement in the slot.

I think you are drafting a future starter, someone who might start this year.
