Then if they let Gesicki go we're hurting bad for receivers! Iosavis has made some plays but I think he tops out about a #4/part time #3 level player and would put Chase back to being doubled every snap again.
Egbuka may be the most plug and play ready WR in the draft. He sure appears to just "have it". And just depending on how this thing unfolds it could be a really good option at 17.
Could be correct. I am just going off of what Joe said. To him Tee is a need and he said he would do whatever needed to bring him back.
But as you say, this isn't a slam dunk either. Egbuka is like you say the most polished, ready to play WR in this Draft. I bet he would come in
and just move the chains ala Housh for us.

Yes, the latter two are TEs, but I think both of these dudes can be good 2nd options in an offense (if used right).
I would also consider trading a late pick for Kyle Pitts instead.
Always liked Warren and we will need a TE especially if Gesicki leaves, but we need one anyway with All hurt. Burrow shown he likes to use
the TE's this last season.
