If he is just a pass-catching TE, we already have several of those...they need a guy that is a bit more versatile.
They can get a later round selection here, and go for a great blocker. They only need him to get 10 yards and move the sticks. The TE doesn't need to score every time he gets the ball, rather, he needs to be able to help in the running game and be an outlet on third down.
This OC isn't running an offense that features a lot of plays designed for TEs as the primary weapon anyway. That is a part of the reason Eifert took so many shots...the defense knew where he would be when he was in a pattern. It wasn't fooling anyone.
Not only the things you listed, but one might also question how often he was open because defenders were distracted by watching to see if Jackson was going to take off running?

Volson is meh, but I like him, and he has far exceeded my expectations
