I was hammered talking to Kyle Rudolph's father at the Christian Moerlein lager house in 2014. He said Bob Trumpy was the 2nd best tight end of all time. Samples nipping at his heels.
This might be the worst take I have ever seen. I can't tell if you're trolling or if this is a real take.
1. You're comparing the 2nd year (only) to the final 4 years of a player's career while cutting out his 4 Pro Bowl and 1 All-Pro season.
2. You're comparing collecting stats from 14 game seasons to 16 game seasons rather than rate stats.
3. Between 1974-1977 (the time you're arbitrarily using for Trumpy) the average NFL QB passed for about 2,100 yards per year. Meanwhile in 2020, the average QB is on pace to throw for 3,840 yards. That means Drew Sample would need to get ~83% more yards than Trumpy to be equal in workload.
Drew Sample couldn't carry Bob Trumpy's jock strap.
