Yet, have one player that might miss a couple of games and many act as if that player was the one our entire offense is centered around. We have Kroft, Hewitt, and three others to provide enough quality snaps at TE. Nothing to panic about, especially if you look at who we have at other skill positions. 

This isn't about a missing player to me. It's about how coaching will use what we have. And we have a lot from which to choose.

We still have a couple solid RBs and a top 10 QB who can still throw at guys like AJ Green, LaFell, Gio, Boyd (2nd round pick) and Kroft (3rd round pick).

Maybe it's just me, but it doesn't seem like people are all that excited about Boyd or Kroft and I'm not sure why. Both look like fine prospects and it's not like they were some late round nobodies. If Eifert is out for a couple games, I'll actually look forward to seeing Kroft on the field. He looked capable when Eifert went down last year.

Either way, we have plenty of targets and this is still a team that's stacked with talent on both sides.

Thanks guys, made me feel better.

Plus i think even if our Offense is stagnant which i don't think it will be our Defense can carry us especially with the
additions of Dansby, maybe Freeney and the rest of the guys. Sure Burfict will be out the first 3 games but i think
with Geno, Dunlap, Dansby, Adam, George and company we will be fine on Defense.

Plus, who is going to cover Green, Lafell, Boyd, Kroft, Gio and company? Plus Dalton is looking like he is coming into
his own with his accuracy and ability to call plays.

Still could be a great Offense.
