Overall good post. It is hard to make your case than to tear someone else's down so try not to take the nay saying so hard. That said I have a bit of nay saying to make.
This is about a lot of the board though and not just you. A lot of people here talk about Scott Chandler - TE and how he is a no brainer pick up for his price. Well this might be true that he would be a good pick up I don't think he is going to matter that much. This kid might be a serviceable backup but he is no difference maker by a long shot. I don't think adding him will solve anything at the TE position.
Sure he is a better pass catching back up then the guys we currently have but really it is just putting us in the position where we need to rely on Gronk staying healthy yet again and really doesn't change much.
Now if you want to say your improvements to the D will make a big enough difference to make not addressing the TE need in a truly serious way not matter I would say you can make that case. But don't tell me Scott Chandler fixes our problem at that position cause he absolutely does not.
