He's a hell of a blocker, NFL ready in that area. Inconsistent hands but pretty good athleticism. Little bit of YAC ability. Great intensity and work ethic.
He has some potential in that Swiss army knife role.
Yes, announced a few days ago.He enterting?
I would like Freiermuth or Pitts. Because of the hype of the WR class, a couple of good/elite tight ends might slide down to Pats drafting position.
Pats suck at drafting WRs so the safer move is to spend FA money on WR and draft an elite TE and develop him if we go in that direction. Obviously RB is all set as we have a top 5 RB unit this past season.
Let's be honest. Keene barely qualifies as a warm body, no less a tight end. There's a reason he couldn't get much play even though the Pats had one of the worst TE productions in the entire NFL.after painfully watching Keene try to play tight end last year, I wonder if bb just moves him to delvin’s old position.
that would open a spot because us to draft a real tight end.

If we can't get a top 5 QB in round 1, I wouldn't mind us drafting elite TE round 1 and QB prospect round 2. Obviously I still believe QB is the most important position but it depends on where the talent falls. I'm still in favor of us moving up into top 10 to take the best QB prospect we can. But we shall see how BB values the talent.
which qb is worth trading up for?
I struggle to see bb trading up for any of these qb’s not named Lawrence.
Of course you struggle to see a QB outside of Lawrence. He's the easy consensus evaluation.
What is more challenging is finding the right QB with upside who could fit in our system.
Just look at Patrick Mahomes, he was evaluated as a 2nd round pick or even as late as a 4th round pick by PRO NFL scouts.
What chance do us armchair scouts stand when we haven't been to the games to watch these kids in live action games?
I'm just saying there's certainly a QB out there who will be overlooked. The challenge is finding that worthy QB prospect, making the tough call, and cashing it in.
It's easy to 'play safe', but it's not easy to spot a Russell Wilson or a Drew Brees, where other scouts are writing them off as 2nd/3rd round talents when in fact, after the benefits of hindsight, we can see they are clearly 1st round perennial pro bowl QB talents.
Tommy Tremble is one of my favorite picks in the entire draft. Second coming of Kittle. Rockstar blocker, great receiver. Future Pro Bowler.
If we're talking later rounds, Nick Eubanks has some talent to work with.
I wouldn't say he's stiff for a TE. Sure, he's stiffer than Chase Claypool, but that's fair.isn’t tremble a bit of a stiff athlete?
Tremble's pro day numbers:
Height: 6'3.3"
Weight: 241
9 1/4” hands
31 7/8” arms
78 1/2” wingspan
40: 4.59
Broad jump: 10'2"
Vert: 36.5"
Bench reps: 20
Not sure why he didn't participate in shuttles, but he's a solid athlete. Middle of the pack in terms of measurables, small hands, which probably contributed to some bad drops throughout his career. But he's got a lot of intangibles, work ethic and intensity. He looks for contact and blasts and moves guys rather than just stalk blocking you see from a lot of tight ends.
Yeah that's another downside, small catch radius.32 inch arms?
