Plus Coach hayes doesnt have much of a track record improving a TE once there are here.
Eifert is our most experienced with 1 year and 7? snaps.
Potential wise we are fine... but as we know all too well that doesnt always translate.
You realize Eifert wasn't a rookie last year, right? Eifert had 673 snaps as a rookie and is going into his 3rd year with the team.
I'd be fine with bringing in a guy like Zach Miller as a 3rd TE with experience, but I'm not too worried if they don't.
If Kroft struggles in camp, I'd think they'd bring in some veteran insurance. If they don't, I would assume that Kroft is doing well.

I know he was a rookie before and only played 7 snaps last year before going to the IR... so last year is lost no experience gained.
From what i hear one of the UDFA's is outshining all the TEs in camp (or maybe it was the guy from our PS)

10 teams put in a claim on Wright, so it's safe to say he's pretty well regarded around the league. You rarely see that many claims on a player. He would've been our most experienced TE with his 10 starts and 82 catches, but as I said last week, we have a lot of young talent and I think they'll be fine. I'm not a big fan of Hayes, but this team's rookies usually produce.
Just look at Gresh and Eifert as rookies.
