Also why is it a surprise that Gresham, the Cardinals #1 TE has outperformed our 2nd and 3rd string TE? A #2 TE spot we use mostly for blocking btw.
ONE more point on your "Gresham has outproduced Kroft and Uzomah combined this year, FYI.". Uzomah has 193 yards in 6 games, Gresham has 351 yards in 14 games. If he kept that pace up he already has 30 more yards in 12 games and would easily outproduce him at 14.
So in conclusion the Cardinals #1 option at TE has more yards than our #2 TE and our #3 TE that has only played 6 games and was on pace to outperform Gresham easily. But sure lets all miss Gresham.
I'm just saying we could have used those picks for better things than TEs who require a paragraph long narrative to explain why they have less yards and TDs than a guy we consider to be a giant detriment, is all. I guess I just think back to the off-season where Eiferts injury was going to be a blessing because we were going to get 2 awesome TEs on the field.
Didn't we all expect more out of these guys?
