    Default Julius Thomas???

    He is more than likely gonna reach free agency, so could we sign him imagine Julius Thomas and Travis Kelce plus we would be hurting Denver

    Ha. Not happening. Let's focus on finding a serviceable receiver.

    I don't think he is an elite TE outside of the Manning system. I'm always a little skeptical of receivers (and TEs) that come from an elite QB (Manning, Brees, Rodgers, Brady). Those QBs make their WRs look better than they actually are. Same reason I'm not too high no Cobb.

    I doubt it would happen but if we could get him out of Denver that alone would be a big help. He would be an upgrade from Fasono nothing against Fasano but Thomas is just better
    TopekaRoy is my hero!

    I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss Randall Cobb. If you watched Cobb in college, he didn't have an elite QB throwing to him, and yet, he tore up SEC defenses on a weekly basis. But then again, I don't believe Dorsey will pay him top dollar and would prefer to draft a comparable player.

    I don't see why not. The receiver position is over rated in this offense anyway. Alex looks for his TE and running backs 75% of the time vs a Receiver. Line up in some more of those Triple TE packages and force teams to put in run packages and get in mismatched situations.

    Seriously, the chiefs/Alex seems to use the Receiver as their third progression or decoys just to clear out the secondary.

    Eh, he grew up a Raiders fan, so i think he's going to Oakland, plus he can't block. If you just want a catching TE then yeah you bring him in, which is good for Alex, he likes to target TEs
