Some posters think the guy is Kelce with his 39 catches for less than a 10 yd average.  His future is this season and maybe next with the Bengals.

The only TE in the Zac Taylor era to have 10+ YPR has been Uzomah, and only at 10.1 YPR.
Hudson had higher YPR than Hayden Hurst, Irv Smith, and Drew Sample.
So he's about the equivalent of a low-end starter.

If McLachlan can perform about as well as Hudson, I agree to go with the guy on a 6th round draft pick contract and 4 years under contract.
But I do think there's value to have a guy who could potentially start if the starter is injured/underperforms and do ok like Hudson did.
