His greatest value came in the Red Zone with 13 touchdowns in 2015 and he likely had a good value on 3rd downs as I remember.

Eifert moving the chains and scoring Touchdowns was quite valuable plus his threat to Defenses down the seams and in the middle of the field to keep them honest.

Hoping Kroft can stay healthy and start to assume Eifert's production levels of 2015.

Durability seems to be our biggest problem at the Tight End position and I would bring in another young one next Draft in the 3rd or 4th round talent level range at a minimum with an emphasis on Red Zone presence. Being a mismatch on contested balls in the Red Zone & Key 3rd down situations.

If we were to draft another TE next year, would you want a traditional TE or a WR type TE? Honestly I think Kroft is a combination of the 2. The year before he was drafted,
Kroft put up pretty good #s receiving and now has learned to block.
