Kroft 2016: 14 games(11 starts), 10 catches/92 yards/0 TD
Hewitt 2016: 16 games(11 starts), 2 catches/13 yards/0 TD
CJ Uzomah 2016: 10 games(8 starts), 25 catches/234 yards/0 TD
Tyler Eifert 2016: 8 games(2 starts), 29 catches/394 yards/5 TD

Schreck: A 2017 PS player.

The only person who is better on that list than Barnidge is Eifert, and Eifert is only better if he's healthy, which thus far is extremely unlikely to be for an entire season.

Last I checked, the Bengals were trying to get BETTER, not younger.

oK.. So how do you know our TE wont be better.. and how do you know Barnidge will maintain.. in football most players in their 30s start to slide.. players in their 2/3 year do improve..

My point continues to be some of you just assume players wont be good or improve... and those that played well , will just keep playing well..

It seems if some of you were GMs.. you would just turn the team over every two years..
