I guessed Uzo. Sample isn't too surprising (though he wouldn't have been my 2nd pick either). It is still telling that he wasn't targeted much, presumably because he wasn't open.
Still, at its heart, football is a lot like the old playground game of "keepaway". You don't have to throw the ball far. If you get it over the passrush it keeps you from taking a sack while getting positive yards. You only need 10 yards over 3 (or 4) downs to get a first down so a reliable short yardage TE can be very helpful. Think of him almost like a running back -- keeps the pass rush at bay while grinding towards your goal.
