We're set with Uzomah and Sample.
With takes like this, who needs talent evaluators?
We heard it first here. The bengals are set at TE with a bottom 25, wasted 2nd round, TE in Sample, and a backup TE coming off a torn Achilles.
Great insight
No way they would want to get better here.

Two biggest threads of late is Joe Burrow Injury and Drew Sample is a bum.

Now that you’re off suspension you gonna contribute something or just go around trashing other posters?

Sample and Uzomah are one of the weakest TE combos in the NFL, possibly the worst. (Especially with an already bad TE coming back after Achillies Tear - he should be cut)
They need to upgrade the position.
Is that better for for you?
Let me guess, you think they are great and bengals will be awesome at TE next year

You get the best FA guard. Take Sewell in the first, an End/DT (if you're giving up on Atkins) in the second and a top TE in the third or fourth.

You were so close up until your snotty little comments at the end.
I agree the TEs aren’t anything to write home about. However, there are other positions that have higher priority for upgrade (OL, DL, CB, LB) IMO.
If we can get a vet TE in free agency that’s prob our best bet... I wouldn’t bother drafting one this year though, especially not in the first 4 rounds... too many other needs to fill.

Priorities. TE isn’t really one right now.

In case anyone was wondering what a real 2nd round TE looks like it’s this...

He’ll come around when I’m proven correct.
They always do, even if they don’t wanna admit I’m right.

Sample is on pace for 44 receptions in his second season. I am sure I can find a lot more 2nd round TEs that did not hve that type of production that early in their career.

How many of those guys were 8th in the NFL in snaps, and played for an offense that was 3rd in the league in pass attempts?

I don't know. I don't think those numbers really matter that much with a TE who is not one of the first options on pass plays.
Some offensive schemes put much more emphasis on throwing to the TE. That is not the case here. I doubt Sample is hardly ever one of the top options on a pass play. It seems he does a lot of chip blocking and then runs short routes as a check down option.

Kinda harsh seeing as how he made a great block on our points of the day.

Great is a bit much, it was a decent block, but the TD only happened because the Miami DB took and absolutely terrible angle.

If we had a competent o line and o coordinator I think he would. Drew Sample is a very good TE. Not all pro but very good. People are going to hate

What evidence is there he’s “very good?” He was mediocre in college, and he’s been mediocre in the NFL. He can block. That’s it.

Not really.
That block is the single best play of Drew Sample’s career. I expect much more from a second round pick.
