Isn't Barnidge more of a blocking TE?

He does both well. He had over 1,000 yards receiving in 2015 and around 600 last year even with the lack of decent Quarterback play in Cleveland. He'd be great here; just the type of player Payton likes at that position. I feel like he's an upgrade over Fleener, but his addition also opens up the opportunity for a lot of two TE sets with AP in the backfield. We can go with a heavy I-Formation with Michael Thomas as the lone receiver.
