IF we are gonna go TE in Rd1 he really needs to be an impact guy. We are gonna want a guy who can line up in-line rather than split. I'd much rather take a speedy WR (Hyatt, Flowers) than a weak-blocking TE who splits out (Kincaid). Maybe if the line was better, I'd change my tune. If we want a catch inly guy, take Mallory later on.
I'd also want the TE to be really strong in one aspect. And while I think guys like Mayer, Musgrave, Kraft, LaPorta, Whyle, to be good all around players, they don't blow me away me in any one skill.
Washington's blocking does. It's almost like adding a RT as well as a TE. And he woukd fit well with Hurst. TE2 plays a lot for us. While washington is a better blocker than receiver, and Hurst the opposite, they both can do both. When Wilcox, Sample, or Asiasi are in, they are zero threat receiving and we almost are giving the play away via personnel.
I remain TE skeptical in Rd1, but if we do it, Washington would be my guy.
