Not sure what they’re going to do if All is out for the year though. That TE room will be looking pretty grim. I’d imagine they don’t have much choice other than to activate Tanner McLachlan.

This is why they drafted McLachlan, in my opinion. They knew they were taking a moderate risk in drafting a guy who has already had 2 season ending surgeries in the 4th round, so when they saw value at TE in the 6th, they decided to double dip.

We'll have to see how McLachlan does in the role. I doubt he'll be anywhere near as good of a run blocker, but hopefully he can perform that role well enough to justify not giving Gesicki any run blocking snaps.

For what it's worth, his NFL draft profile does say that he has "Active hand work after contact to extend his block sustain," and he "puts in the work to get backside cut-offs and climb to the linebacker." So that's something :)

Yeah, he's clearly got more in the tank than I thought, which is a nice surprise.

Gesicki getting single coverage or no coverage at all like his one TD then he is the better option in most cases.

The only person on this team that might get double coverage off Chase and Tee is Gesicki. Feed the guy the rock till they stop doubling Chase and Tee then they can really eat, and we can really be a dangerous offense like we should be with these players. Burrow Chase Tee Gesicki. 

Burton needs to play I do not care if he kicks Zac's dog right before the game. Zac is the head coach...Zac calls the plays on offense....Zac will have direct influence on who is picked as skill position guys on offense. So, Zac basically drafted Burton he knew he was a headcase now deal with him he deserves 2 or 3 deep targets a game on go routes. He is the 4th best option and can give great production with very few targets that is a weapon we will need.

 


You cannot play a guy that no call, no shows a Saturday walk through.

Mike G looks like a large WR out there so we will miss Alls blocking ability as an all around option at TE. Maybe Tanner Mac can step in and show us why he was called "Baby Gronk" ?
Any news on All? Im worried hes out for a long stretch or for the yr

All I saw this morning was "feared torn ACL", but I'm not sure how reliable the source was.

Agreed, Gesicki is headed to free agency (I believe) and All, a player with a history of injuries, just suffered a serious injury. 

I suppose they could ignore the position in the draft and sign another TE in free agency to continue the rotating door at the position.

It's going to be a long time before another ball is thrown his way unless Browning is in. He's got a lot of nerve thinking he is going to sit next to Burrow anyway. Even Chase rarely sits with him during games.

I seen him sit right next to Burrow earlier this season while using a tablet he was not even getting snaps then.

Everyone got a hard look from Burrow today he was not a happy camper.

I hope they bring Hilton back.  He was undrafted coming out I believe, and that dude is great Nickle/slot.  I hope the FO do not let him walk too.  It would make me sick.

I thought I imagined that thanks! Joe even sat back down after Burton got up and left.

Seems to have filled a void.

He is no Travis Kelce but seems to be doing decently.

Still an ALL Jr fan but Gesicki has some hands for sure and makes for a large target.

At this stage of his career he is better than All or Sample....The Ravens up next and they over play the run so much, they are suckers for the TE pass.  We saw that our Super Bowl year. ...Gesicki is very good and could be a big play maker against Ravens.
