The comparison I meant was how he fits in the team. Right now, he's the pass catching 3rd TE that Thomas and Fauria. Unless you think he's more like Watson?

Well, the draft is over and he was, indeed, the closest thing to a fullback that the team drafted.

Oh, well.

I think he'll be the perfect underneath compliment to Welker, and take the pressure off Welker in that anyone who wants to sit underneath to nail Welker will get torched by Hernandez. This all the more important because no matter which way we want to spin it, Welker will not be the Welker of old.

Hernandez can play split wide, coming out of the backfield or out of the slot. He won't be our third TE simply because he won't be used in the same way Crumpler and Gronk will. We have added an athletically gifted pass catcher who will be used everywhere in the field to create mismatches.

I like the TE situation better with two more fresh players, particularly these two. The three in the mix should give the team a different look; lots more options. Hernandez is supposed to be the better catcher; Grons can block and add that reach factor. If the latter stays healthy and learns to use that big frame well, he'll enjoy a very healthy relationship with his QB.

Between these three, there can be a lot of different looks here, particularly if a few of the WR prospects step up.
