He's a vertical weapon. He has the ability to get deep fast and has a huge catch radius.
He's shown the ability to do more than Gresh as a receiver.
Hopefully the playcalling will be to Eifert's strengths. I felt that Gresham was more than capable up in the middle of the field, yet the playcalling rarely sent the ball to him there. Our TEs almost always seemed to be used as low yardage safety nets for Andy instead of more downfield targets.
I do believe Eifert can be a special TE in the league, but I don't know how much our coaches like to use TEs in the manner which he would really shine. We'll see soon enough, it's about time for some football. This offseason has felt like it has taken forever.
