    Agreed. This is camp fodder, not a potential replacement for TG.

    I never meant this post as saying he was a replacement for Tony, thats insane to say that, Cottam has the spot locked for now if Tony is gone.

    What this post was meant for is examining why bringing in extra depth to the TE spot might signify a possible trade situation come Saturday. This way if Tony is gone, we will not be left with only 1 tight end and have to draft 2. It makes perfect sense of Pioli to do this....

    I think this is Pioli adding some depth to the TE Slot just in case a late trade offer comes through for Tony Gonzales on or before Draft day, which I highly expect will happen. This is a very smart move, and with this move I highly suspect that Pioli is expecting a good trade offer for Tony before the draft starts....
