We needed this....we needed this big-time.  

Now, if we can get Core or Ross, or both of them stretching the field, we may have something.

Kroft stepped up and showed the hands and desire that got him selected in the 3rd round.  It was proof of something I have been saying for some time.  You don't have to be WIDE OPEN as TE on our team.  The matchups favor a lot of chain-moving receptions as well as some red zone targets.  Eifert may be faster and can make a bigger play, but how many times has that happened in his career?  Twice?  We need solid, not spectacular play our of our TEs and Kroft gave us exactly that today.

Now, come on Uzomah....I know it is there.  If we had TWO TEs that showed that kind of heart....
