SCBills Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) Knox is the guy, like other guys they’ve drafted, they believe in him, and if he makes a second year jump, will be a serious weapon. Not in love with the other 4, but unless y’all want to be the Ravens offense, it doesn’t make a ton of sense to bring in a high priced FA or use a high pick on a guy to be our #2 behind Knox. Kroft is the wild card. After him we have a blocking TE, a developmental TE and then whatever Croom is. If Kroft is healthy, big if, then this group is middle of the pack in the NFL, with potential to be more based on youth (Knox) and health (Kroft). I’ll take that as long as our OL and QB make expected jumps and we upgrade RB and WR. Edited March 14, 2020 by SCBills 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alphadawg7 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I don’t hate this. I think he’s a potential depth guy and now will be healthy for camp and again. He either makes a case to make the roster, or easy cut still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bob in STL Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 If Knox and Sweeney improve,and Kroft stays healthy, then the whole group improves regardless who else makes it. Smith and Croom come to camp but I expect more competition to be brought in too. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Call_Of_Ktulu Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 This is the type of thing that destroys the good thing that we have going with Beanie and McD. If Croom was forced on them to take up a roster spot and get playing time then we are heading for turmoil. If we released Croom right now I highly doubt he would get signed with another team.

Can’t count on Kroft to be healthy, given his history, but I do think it’s reasonable to expect Knox to make a jump. He’s clearly got top end talent, just needs to mature and develop.

There are WR’s that block 100 times better than him. He runs some of the worst routs that I have ever seen. His hands are questionable at best. He has trouble holding on to the football. He can’t play special team for *****. This is just a bad move all around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoPoy88 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 (edited) Gross. I suppose Croom is going to be there to press Sweeney in camp and the better of the two will stay. Obviously i’m rooting for the BC guy in that scenario. Problem is Kroft sucks and Knox has a drop rate damn near 20%. I don’t see another kittle or kelce emerging out of this group. and the less said about lee the better. Edited March 14, 2020 by JoPoy88 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rochesterfan Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 1 hour ago, BeastMaster said: This tells me they are really gonna go after some wideouts and probably a RB also. We were told they were gonna upgrade the offense, and so far it's been keeping the same cast of characters. Terrible take - what should they have done so far to upgrade the offense? FA has not started. The draft has not occurred. There have not been a huge amount of star WRs, OL, RBs, and TEs released to sign. They have so far done exactly as Beane has stated - they have signed their own and as he has in the past - filled as many holes as possible - so they are free to move around in the draft to get what they want. To act like they are done and he broke a promise because they re-signed a back-up TE and their starting and back-up OL is insane. Enjoy what they have done before FA has even started. They are positioning themselves to have another stellar offseason leading to another great year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could definitely do worse than: Knox, Kroft, Croom, Smith, Sweeney... although one of these guys might get cut. Solid "B" imo Knox can't catch. Kroft can't stay healthy. Smith can't get open. Croom hasn't done much in his short career and Sweeney has done even less. I'm agreement with everyone who says we need another TE option. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
