I think JP was suggesting bringing in Barnidge in addition to Fleener. We have carried as many as three TE's in the past. Cutting or trading Fleener isn't an option.

Exactly. Cap room is there and why not ensure we have that position locked down?

We only have one big reliable receiver in Thomas, why not have some big targets for the red-zone who could be a dual threat - block and catch?

Could you imagine lining up in a 12 package with Fleener and Barnidge capping the line with Snead and Thomas out and Kamara in the backfield? Talk about total mismatches everywhere.

Gives me goosebumps.

Last year Coleman looked much better making those plays between the 20's. He did manage three TD's, but you would expect more than that if he was going to be playing the "big receiver" role. Look at the numbers Graham and Colston put up. I know. They aren't those two, but the point is that we do need another true red zone threat besides Thomas as far as those "throw it where only they can catch it" passes that Brees is famous for.

I think the Gif meant something along the lines of "cheer up"

In that episode of spongebob, Squidward just won't accept anyone trying to brighten his day so Spongebob stands there throwing rose pettles in his face in an attempt to make him smile.
