He wasn’t needed in preseason (no vet is). This is a different injury. Those things happen. Do you want to get rid of Morse too? I know he played weeks 1 and 2, but I’m not sure who will be available for more games this year. Injuries happen, that’s why you need depth. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy is glass. Drop him in the offseason. Sad that they could have gotten Jesse James for the same amount of money just about. It is good they can get out of the deal, at this point just IR him and try and see if a TE could be had on the trade market. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Time to move on. Duke to the active roster. I guess you didn't see him in 2017 when he subbed in for an injured Eifert on the Bengals. He showed a lot of promise. 400 yards, 7 TDs, 9.6/rec, 67.7% catch rate. I hope he comes back strong. How many years have we been starved for one TE. Now we could have four TEs that deserve playing time. Think of what Daboll can do with that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lurker Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 This picture from today's Buffalo news caughtr my eye. It's Kroft and his spindly little ankles. No way do they look strong enough to support a 265 pound guy. I don't try to follow the croud and play doctor/lawyer/indian chief on TSW because I slept at Holiday Inn last night, but it makes me think his body was meant to be 200 pounds and just can't take the pounding from carrying all that extra weight... 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LSHMEAB Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 I think they scrambled a little bit early in FA'cy knowing they needed a tight end and made a poor decision.

JinxedBill Posted September 20, 2019 Share Posted September 20, 2019 That sucks because he has a chance at being a really good addition. Good thing we drafted a couple of rookies and have Lee Smith.
