The 2018 Rams threw for over 4500 yards and their leading TE, Gerald Everett, just had 320 yards. 

Do you mean Sean McVay's system?  (Let's be fair, I haven't heard anyone call this Dan Pitcher's system.)

Also, they had 3 legitimate weapons in Robert Woods, Brandin Cooks, and Cooper Cupp.  Not to mention they had one of the better receiving backs in the league at the time, with a healthy Todd Gurley.  That's going to limit TE use.

We have on the other hand, only 2 legitimate weapons in Boyd and Higgins, and don't use the RB in the pass game a whole lot.  That should allow for more TE use.

Let's just assume Taylor system is McVay's, and it's by design we don't use the TE.  Then why draft one in the 2nd round?  Why not say to your scouts or GM's, "Guys, in my system we use the TE to block and to check down to once or twice a game".

It's complete idiocy to draft a TE there to produce in this way.
