When Taylor sees Bowers catching everything on backers and safeties in one-on-one and seven-on-seven drills, he's going to know that we have a great weapon.
I also have to think that other coaches would be influencing him to use Bowers more.
We have - Tyler Eifert..
But that was with the old coaches. We'll see, but I'll still stand by the 3rd rounder. Most of the time the top tight end drafted isn't the best tight end in the NFL
It's kinda the chicken and the egg. Do we not use a tight end because we don't have one or do we not have one because we don't place a high level of importance on it? We had a major hole last year at TE and we still didn't draft one. I don't think this year is going to be the year when we have so many other needs and not so much at TE.
