They used a 6th on him and could have just traded that for a 2017 5th instead of drafting. They broke even and wasted two years on someone elses player.
Not just the TE's . We have been quite lucky with injuries so far. But we saw last yr what happened when edelman went down. We dont have decent wR depth either although to get one via a trade into this system is difficult.Maybe its Reece, but just maybe that 3rd guy is someone who is already here. James Devlin. He can block. We know that. He also has very good hands. We know that too. What we DON'T know is how well he can run TE routes. But we do know that he works out with the TEs every day and is in that meeting room.
All I know is that I don't like having only 2 TE's on this team. Too risky
Boy, and I thought the Van Noy trade was odd. So basically we add a player where we seem to have some depth and subtract a player in an area where we are now very thin. Bill certainly moves in mysterious ways, his wonders to behold..
I liked Derby as a developmental project behind Bennett and Gronk, but clearly BB has soured on him for some reason, and decided to get at least SOME value for him before he was forced to just release him and watch him get picked up on the waiver wire.
Clearly the choice of WHERE to trade him was odd to say the least. We still have an open roster spot. I don't think he's done yet. In the mean time we still better get another TE.
If he performs well for the Broncos then we will get a high pick is my guess. Probably a 4th rounder...
But I just don't like the fact we are trading people to Broncos...I don't want to help them.
Not really a matter of trust....I think BB trusts Bennett and Gronk to make it through the whole season.

Of course mysterious Mr. Scruggs could be returning in one month ..
I thought Scruggs was on IR, which means he's out til next season.
Harbor was waived and is on DET now.Harbor is the 3rd TE...no need to get all twisted because we traded Derby. He hasn't done anything and we get a 5th rd pick.
