Is Zac Really Happy With Irv Smith & Drew Sample

I think Zac maybe would have thought about drafting one of them, if they’d fallen to them in the draft.  But, they didn’t.  And, they certainly weren’t going to reach for one.

If they had viewed TE position differently, they would have resigned Uzoma or Hurst.  They let both walk.

They don't want to have to change to continuity of their pass protection or run blocking every year like they have been. They've said they have been looking in the draft the last two years but the value just hasn't been there at their pick and are not gonna reach.
