Irv Smith is quite short for a TE (6'2") and not sure what we get out of him. Competition at that spot, and someone for two-TE sets, would be valuable.
And regarding RB, the Bengals lost RB2 and Mixon is a liability in pass pro. Not to mention our RBs last year were frustrating when we had 3rd and short because they couldn't move defenders the yard needed.
There are still RBs and TEs available who could contribute on special teams and maybe give some competition for playing time. Maybe hit on someone like KC did with Pacheco.
Yes, he's 6'2" but he has tremendous hands and gets in and out of his cuts very quickly. He's a TE with some wiggle. It may not be straight-line speed, but it is football speed. I like the Mallory kid as well and I'm sure they are going to grab a guy as they should.
