If he nabs 40-50 catches this year our offense gonna be humming

It won’t be this season. He’s going to need a year on the practice squad. Sounds like he has the mental makeup to handle what’s going to be thrown at him.

Sounds a bit high for me
Going to be hard just making the squad. I could see a normal NFL red shirt first year on IR upcoming.

Idk. Maybe this guy cracks the 53 and starts producing. Wouldn't be the first time fellas.

This is true. Nobody was talking about some Colston guy making the squad some dozen years ago.

He can probably make the roster. He needs work blocking but catching and route running he seems to have those skills. Would not be the first time a TE made this roster that was a poor blocker.

So he's better than Boo Williams?
