Monster size for a TE. Rams to Buffalo pipeline is becoming a thing these days, too.

 

We can keep that going and help them win the Caleb Williams sweepstakes by taking Cooper Kupp off their hands for next year's 3rd pick.

Thinking they want a usable tight end on the practice squad.

To look a little more deeply, perhaps they're aware that blocking is not the strong suit of any of the three tight ends on their roster, and want to have one who IS a blocking specialist, should they feel the need to call him up for a particular week to execute a certain gameplan. Perhaps we'd see a week where Quintin Morris is inactive but Blanton gets called up, and they use him as an extra blocker in the run and/or pass game.

Interesting.  He's a big bodied TE who should be able to block.  Prior to the combine he was thought to be fast for a big guy and to run the 40 in the 4.6 range.  At the combine, however, he ran a very disappointing 4.95.  I have no idea why the expectations different from the results, but at least he gave the indication thaty he might be a receiving threat as a pro.
