I don't need any convincing about Brevin Jordan, I was literally the first person to ever post on him on this Board.I don't either, but if Irvin gets kicked out we'd be left with Polendey & walk-on Malik Curry as the only real TE's on the roster.In the spring is time for POLENDY, PATCHAN to get alot of reps.
**** not sure if Irving would be a grades casualty then...so lets see. Dont think we need another te in the class though
I'm not sold on Patchan being a legit TE, so they should at least look at a Grad Transfer next year, wouldn't affect the scholly count.
Jordan and Mallory won't show up on campus til June/July 2018, a Grad Transfer would provide solid veteran Depth until Fall camp.
El, I'd be straight with cross training Langham to be a Njoku WR/TE hybrid and rolling with Polendey and Curry just until the Fall. Brevin is GAME READY and will be a Day 1 starter. Why waste an 85 ship on a spring practice Greentree body?
Langham ain't moving to TE, and a Grad Transfer doesn't take up a scholly & he wouldn't be just a Greentree body.
The reason for it would be as a contingency plan, also adds a Senior TE who can provide depth & solid blocking.
I'm not arguing that someone should be brought in to start over Jordan or Mallory, I'm saying we could use another guy for depth, just like we could have at RB this year.
Brock was the same one championing our unproven depth at RB during the offseason. Everyone knew what we had with Walton and that Homer had high upside, but after that we had crap. When fans voiced their concerns, he thought we were good. Now, we've had to revamp our whole offseason because Walton actually went down. With this situation at TE - its rinse and repeat.
