Trade candidates thread!

Transparently, I said, "WHO?!" after reading this.

But before responding, I did a bit of research.

What I liked:
- Seems like a decent receiver in spot opportunties
- Reports that he's a willing blocker even if not the best at it
- Did put up 31 rec for 302 yards in 13 games (4 starts) for Colts last year

What I didn't like:
- Quite small for a TE, built more like a FB (6'1.5", 242 lb)
- While his height and weight are about the same as Delanie Walker, he has shorter arms
- Not overly shifty on film/videos I just watched

While I'd be cool with him competing for TE3 duties with Asiasi, does he give enough optimism to think he could be an average-or-better guy if needing to fill in for Irv Smith? Is he good enough to get TE2 duties from Sample? Sample's already shown in the past he can be a 300-400 yard guy if needing to fill in.

I honestly wouldn't be too excited to see him added, as I would want someone who could be a good TE2 that could fill in adequately if Irv Smith underperforms and/or gets hurt.

I'd rather try to get OJ Howard from the Raiders, who is 3rd on the depth chart now that they drafted Mayer.
He's more of a prototypical athletic freak, has ideal size, has the requisite experience as both a blocker and receiver, and much more proven production in the NFL while still being under 30 years old. On top of that, Howard's contract is extremely friendly low.
Zac Taylor 2019-2020: 6 total wins
Zac Taylor 2021-2022: Double-digit wins each season, plus 5 postseason wins
Patience has paid off!

Sorry for Party Rocking!
