Tre Flowers re-signed

[*TheLeonardLeap*]

I don't hate the signing, though I think they overpaid a bit and were likely bidding against themselves.

I'm not sure I get the whole "TE Killer" thing, though....
He played 6 snaps against the 49ers in Week 14 and George Kittle had 151 yards and a TD
He played 12 snaps against the Ravens in Week 16 and Mark Andrews had 126 yards and a TD.
He played 13 snaps against the Chiefs in Week 17 and sure Kelce only had 25 yards, but he also had a TD.
He played 21 snaps against the Raiders in the playoffs and Waller had 76 yards, 16 more than his per game average in 2021.
He played 9 snaps against the Chiefs in the playoffs and Kelce had 95 yards and a TD.

Against the best TEs the Bengals played at the end of the year, Flowers barely played and the TEs went off for 473 yards and 4 TDs in 5 games.

PFR has Flowers as allowing a 111.0 QB Rating in his coverage with the Bengals in 2021.
PFF has Flowers as a 51.3 grade.

All this hype seems to be around the fact that they held Kelce to 25 yards (and a TD) in one game... in a game where Flowers played 21% of the defensive snaps. There's no way he can live up to "TE Killer" expectations.
