Should the Browns be looking at another TE?
-
Dorsey just signed TE Gavin Escobar from the Cowboys.
FWIW, he was a 2nd rd pick in 2013
Tour called it. PS player with a chance to get on the roster
Second round pick who could only get on a Practice Squad in 5 years since being drafted? What's wrong with him?

"You know, a lot of people go to college for eight years!"
"Yeah, they are called doctors."

He did not just play on the PS. He has been in almost every Dallas game from 2013-2016. Actually has 8 TDs which is more than we can say for all for our TEs the last two seasons isn't it?

Not sure that's on our TEs.
Per wiki he was drafted by the 'Boys because they were disappointed with Martellus Bennett among other TEs. Turned out he could not win playing time over even lesser TEs. Most of his appearances were on STs.
Not feelin' this one... but hey... "Football guy".

Very likely a camp body. Will be surprised if he makes it through training camp. Njoku/Devalve/Telfer are very likely safe.
I would like to see a late rounder or a UDFA with some blocking skills brought in to compete for a spot.

Maybe a veteran to be used on STs.....something we were missing this past season. If he can play STs...and he is like on the bottom 3 of the roster...he could still help there.

News flash he played behind Jason Whitten who may have been to a few pro bowls

I think they need a primarily blocking TE before they need another pass catching TE. One that does both well is ideal of course, but how many times do those come around?

Agree they need a better blocking TE. We are set in the TE receiving dept.

Njoku is going to be outstanding, but what if he gets injured down the line? Maybe find this guy
in the second or third round? With 3 picks in the second round, would a top TE fit be a good idea?
-
12/30/17: Goedert was a dangerous receiving threat the past two seasons for South Dakota State. The senior amassed 72 receptions for 1,111 yards and seven touchdowns in 2017. He put up even better production as a junior with 92 receptions for 1,293 yards and 11 touchdowns. Goedert has good size and athletic ability. He could help himself with a big week at the Senior Bowl.

I'd say in the 4th round, look for a TE. We have far too many needs to pick a TE any sooner.

Hopefully both Njoku and DeValve improve to make taking a TE superfluous. If you need a blocking TE....I suspect a decent one can be had in free agency.
But I don't know....the Browns may still like Telfer. He is their candidate for the Walter Payton Man of the Year award...and that actually means a lot to NFL teams I think.
ERRR, actually, I guess they just did that with the signing of Escobar. Browns may be done at the TE spot.

I think Telfer might be done. But Njuko and Devalve are up and coming. 2nd year for Njuko and 3rd year for Devalve. I expect a lot from these guys.

If we do take a flier on a TE, I’d be excited if it was this guy. His highlights are ridiculous
