He’s got a few points against him I think in that he’s over 30, somewhat expensive at 17 APY. But he’s on a team that’s going nowhere and he’s shown he can produce. Unless there is some restructuring I think this is a long shot, but it just serves as an example of how complicated it is to get an impactful TE in our situation. You can maybe get one but it’s going to cost you and be in less than ideal financial/age circumstances.

I think that you just answered your own question.  Personally, I feel like his best days are behind him, and with no more than the Bengals utilized the TE as a featured weapon in plays it would be a bad ROI.  Large market teams with deep pockets can take those sort of risks, teams on a tight budget like the Bengals, not so much.
