I just can’t…
HOF vs not living up to first round pick
In style of play they're fairly similar. Both more inline TEs who can block, catch, good athletes but not elite speed guys. Obviously Greshman didn't have the career Witten did but he's not as bad as some act. His first 3 years were very similar but then he started having injuries and wasn't able to improve/stay consistent like Witten. If Gresham stayed healthy and saw the volume Witten did who knows what his career would have been though. But our offense was always more WR based.
In Wittens first 3 years he had 2100 yards, 13 touchdowns, and 2 PBs.
In Greshams first 3 years he had 1800 yards, 15 touchdowns, and 2 PBs.
If we get either of those first 3 seasons we are feeling good about that at pick 28.
