You fellas would be bitching if Sample missed the block and got Burrow killed. TJ can't block and then go down field and catch a long TD pass either?????????
I wanted Ertz, he is a true pass catcher and blocker to replace Wilcox. But, we have Sample. The coaching staff's job is to maximize the strengths of each player so ZT using Sample as a run and pass blocker is a smart move in my humble opinion. Sorry, Sample won't be a fantasy TE and likely never a pass catcher. As for draft position who cares. As long a s a player does his job whether round one or 7 or a FA, each player has a job to do.
As they say, just "do your job".
I am so ready for 2024 season. I love pro football and hoping for a great Bengals year. Regardless, always remember it is a game and entertainment.
