Not a chance in hell
I think that he’s going to be huge and games this year, but not in his first game and not against the Jets

 

People need to temper their expectations a little bit

 

Why do people need to temper their expectations?  I have high expectations for Kincaid, and I expect he will have a long nfl career.   My expectations aren't going to help or hinder his ability to achieve them aim high and if you fall short you can still fall under expectation but very close to them and xour still doing well.  Have low expectations and  fail I would question the lack of effort to even achieve a low expecation and that is unacceptable to me.

Wouldn’t surprise me…. I think he will blow peoples minds on Monday. If the Jets decide to Blitz Josh he will find Kincaid all day in the middle. Swollen Beasley will be on display! If they go Zone Josh will carve them up. 

I think it's Swole Beasley, Swollen Beasley makes it sound like Cole had an allergic reaction.

Physical presence, I guess.

Travis Kelce is 6'5", 256 lbs and ran a 4.61 40.
Dalton Kincaid is 6'4", 240 lbs and ran a 4.71 40.

I think that what makes Kincaid special is his brain and, as you said, his spatial awareness. I see him making a living making 8 yard catches in 3rd and 7, the way Ertz has for years. I DON'T see him regularly making huge downfield catches, being a RAC monster, or generally being the physical freak that it seems like Kelce/Gronk are/were.

This is only my opinion. I think he'll be a very good player, but I see him more as a technician and security blanket than as a gamebreaking big play threat. 

Do you really believe Kincaid can’t run better than a 4.71?  That’s your reasoning?  Strange.
 

Josh allen ran a poor 40, but he can move.  Kincaid can move.  You can see it.  In most cases in which people bring up his speed they usually say he looks like 4.5’s.  
 

Kincaid is a smoother mover and route runner than Kelce.  Is a better athlete and a more explosive mover.  His hand are also almost 3/4 of an inch bigger 

 

the only things we should be worried about with him is injury and Dorsey.

That’s the best.  Fans “need to temper expectations”.   Had someone telling me I had to temper expectations because if he doesn’t do well, I’ll blame Dorsey and unfairly call for his job.  🤣 as if that will have an impact on anyone other than my wife

I feel like people seem offended that I said he's not gonna be Travis Kelce. Zach Ertz is/was still a HELL of an NFL tight end. 

I conceded that I think he'll be very good or great, and that I'm excited to see him play. I just don't see him as the physical presence/alien freak show that Gronk and Kelce are/were.

I could very well be wrong in my prediction, but saying "I don't think he'll be Kelce" -- a guy who may go down as the GOAT TE -- isn't meant to be disparaging. Players can win in lots of different ways. Kincaid being a smooth, brainy technician instead of a physical freak doesn't mean he can't still be highly effective.

Kincaid, the rookie who hasn’t played a single snap in the regular season? This is a god awful take.  Kelce is a top 5 TE OAT still in his prime and he’s a worse route runner, lesser athlete, and is also less explosive than DK? 😂 

 

Full disclosure, I loved the DK selection and think he will be awesome in this offense, but this is just silly.

The water has broken and we are being rushed to the hospital!  The baby is finally here. 
 

The reason why I think this is the year simply comes down to 1 person. Dalton Kincaid. The difference maker. We have lacked that one person on offense to draw attention away from Diggs that can reliably get open underneath and over the middle. He’s going to be a problem to cover. To fast and fluid for most linebackers. He will completely change the offensive dynamic this year where teams just can’t focus on Diggs. Having him play from the slot also helps open up the running game because he will help clear out some space in the box. 
This isn’t even including how I think our defense actually got better and healthier. 
 

We finally get our Super Bowl win everyone! 
 

 

Everyone will know who Dalton Kincaid is after this year is done.

I’m only offended that you used a 4.71 40 time to support your thoughts.  As if his speed is one of the reasons he isn’t Kelce.    Watch him run.  He’s plenty fast.  

 

I didn’t call him Kelce- just a future HoFer 😉

Lol…..another typical “you” take.

 

Please show me where I called him a “worse route runner”.  I didn’t.  I save you the time.  I said he was a smoother route runner.  There’s more to route running than being smooth. 
 

Yes, I think Kincaid is a more explosive mover and a more fluid athlete. 
 

Kelce is obviously the better TE by a MILE at the moment.  I’m just talking about some physical attributes.

Can only assume he is mocking this thread

 

 

He was actually very complimentary!
