You keep saying he will be blocking more here. Unless we change our entire offense and become a ground and pound team that's just not true.No, it's not that I dislike him. I just openly voiced some concerns (where I actually used the term "minor") about his role here, and the fact that he may be seeing the ball less and blocking more than he's used to if we go to 2 TE sets more, like I assume they will. That exchange was hashed out with Deus in a response or two.
The fact that I pointed out some attitude issues and deemed him the "anti-Patriot" thus far in his career for various reasons is irrelevant for why this should still be a successful trade. It's low risk, didn't cost much aside from the last year of his salary, and he's shown great talent on the field at times. The reality is that this is certainly a year to year move, though, and should be seen as such.
TEs block. They do it here and on every team in the NFL. Bennett played TE in Chicago and blocked just as much as he will here.
