Age is of zero concern to me as I am happy with our future at TE. As you say we have options. Hell Chris Cooley is trying to come back.
Meh. The Pats haven't had anyone produce as a 2nd TE since the murderer. Age is a slight concern to me, because Daniels is at an age where he could have a steep decline at any point. Plus if we like what we see in Wright, we could hang on to him instead of say...Uzomah.
Fwiw, I'd say Chris Cooley is completely washed up. He has 9 catches since 2010 and hasn't played at all since 2012. He's a nice guy but he probably needs to move on. Daniels and Wright are definitely the best available options.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
