Are We Moving Away From Two-TE Sets?

to block for Hill and be a relief valve for Dalton at H-back. We have lots of weapons with Green, MLJ, Sanu,
Moore, Wright and our RB's. And Kroft and our other TE's are all pretty much rookies.

I don't find it to be a good time to run a primarily 2 TE set until we know what we have with all the TE's.

We can find out what we have in Kroft in OTAs, training camp, preseason games, etc..

The transition from college to the NFL is much quicker now, especially since we had Kroft as our #1 tight end on our draft board.

Just seems like a waste to not use him from the get-go.  

I get what you're saying about already having enough weapons, but it would be so hard for defenses to cover both tight ends up the seams and both receivers out wide, not to mention that Hill wouldn't be a bad safety valve himself if no receivers are open (which would be unlikely, and I know that Hill would have a lot of blocking responsibilities, but if a play is taking that long and blocking breaks down, he would obviously realize something is up and turn and look for the ball.  Not to mention that, if they have that defenders covering, there likely wouldn't be enough pass rushers for Hill to have anyone to block).
