With our ball control throw underneath the D long drives this year the YPC went down but the 1st downs went up I would guess. Handen hands are much better than CJ as well. But if we got an extra draft pick and the right player is there I am all for getting a better TE prospect to develop.
Actually didn't...
Hayden Hurst 2022
76.5% catch rate
50.0% 1st down rate
CJ Uzomah 2021
77.8% catch rate
63.3% 1st down rate
...that's not an endorsement of Uzomah or trying to make it into a fight between the two. I would still take Hurst at 1yr/$3.5m over Uzomah at 3yr/$24m all 100/100 times, but Hurst is meh.
