Assuming our pass blocking is better some of those sacks, throw aways, incompletions from last year are going to be catches so there are some more catches across the board. We are also assuming no receiver gets hurt, which the reality is we were lucky last year and there will probably be some snaps lost to injury at some point. Our Red Zone scoring was awful so even if all an elite TE did was improve that he would be worth the price.
1. Since Uzo had a much better catch percentage and yards per target than Waller, Waller will have to have a lot more targets just to match what CJ did last year.
2. An elite TE is no more effective in the redzone that an elite WR. In fact elite WRs score more tds than elite TEs.
