Like I keep saying, I think a receiving tight end from this draft will make our offense pretty unstoppable because Burrow's first read can be to the tight end, even if he's not technically his first choice, and it holds the safeties and backers, which then you go to Chase on the outside, and he's likely single covered, or Higgins or whoever is in our slot is single covered and I'll take those matchups any day of the week and twice on Sunday.
It doesn't really change that much for zone because a defender has to guard an area and they obviously have to move to cover receivers in their area because Burrow has a decent () arm!
I don't find Stover to be any more of a Receiver than Ben Sinnott or Theo Johnson. Quite a few options for the TE you are looking for honestly.
It would be really nice if we had a TE in here as a real weapon for the first time since Eifert. Pitcher said essentially the same thing, the reason
we are so WR heavy is they are our best weapons on Offense. If we had a playmaking TE we would use him which is why we went and got Mike
Gesicki. If we don't draft one of the TE's mentioned here just watch Gesicki have a monster year if he stays healthy.
That would kind of suck though as he would probably be going somewhere else after a big year and I don't know what the TE class looks like
next year. The one thing the Chiefs have I am jealous of has been Travis Kelce who I hope falls off this year after showing signs. The best TE in
the league is cheaper than the #2 WR's now a days. That is a major point to emphasize on.
