Free agent scenarios for the 2017 draft class

Jonnu had the 3rd highest catch rate, 4th highest YAC per reception of all WR s or TEs in the league last year. Opportunity is the only thing keeping him from being a top TE.

 

I like Jonnu, he's going to have a big year.

Ebron? The only decent year he had was with Luck at QB..I'd rather have Jonnu.

 

What says we want Corey Davis back? And believe me, I hope he does, but he has to give us a reason to pick up his option.

 

I doubt he does much to do that this off- season.

 

Ah. I was under the impression we had to after this season to make a decision on that. My mistake.

Then it should definitely not be picked up, based on what we’ve seen.

 

I am not sure there is anything that could make us pick up his option. He can play his was 2 a good deal though I think. Even if it is a long shot.

 

Ebron averaged 62 receptions and 696 yards from 2015-2018. Jonnu hasn't sniffed those type of numbers yet.

That isn't to say I'd rather have Ebron. I just think they are the same type of TE. Good, not great pass catching tight end that is a liability as a blocker. You could also use Njoku or Cook as a comparison.

 

I am not sure but I bet jonnu likely had less than 62 targets and that was because of the offense. Not him. He is also a solid blocker. He was crap to start with but he is not any more. He is not great but he is a good all around te.

I will go as far to say that if there was a trade involving the 2. I would want ebron and a 3rd at the minimum for jonnu.

 

trade Davis. Just didn’t work out here. Never got any chemistry going- too many drops also. An early 3rd or better would be ok by me. He’s gone after his contract.

 

Trade to NE for a 3rd
