Matt Jones from Arkansas could be a sleeper TE/WR/HB/FB/RB tweener that could become a special player in the right offense. Maybe ours?

Just like Cooley...

skinsfanthru&thru 01-26-2005 10:48 PM

is it just me or do any of u all have the joy of a royal td ruined a little by his "special" dancing skillz? and I'm sure Gibbs and Bugel can find another young late round or undrafted te that could produce in a year or 2 in multiple ways.

Hey guys - Don't get too excited. He was a Spurrier pick in the draft!

I believe last year he made one or two really great catches. As far as size and blocking goes, he's below the average. I'd like to see us get another TE, even though I think Royal has a large upside, we need a larger, blocking TE. Double TE sets you could run Royal out as a receiver, or keep him at the line. I think that's where he'd be most dangerous. I'd like to see some films of how well he's able to release defenders and get up the seam.

Ok I might be wrong but don't we have 5 TE now? Royal and Cooley at the top. If both bulked up then we could have some serious playing going on there.

MTK 01-27-2005 10:28 AM

I see people saying Royal needs to "bulk up", the guy goes 6'4 260 how much more weight should the guy put on?? If he puts on more weight he'll probably lose what decent speed he has.

rdsknfn2003 01-27-2005 10:32 AM

The thing is. Is that he doesnt look 260 now does he? He looks more like 230

rdsknfn2003 01-27-2005 10:33 AM

But then I am blind.........lol

MTK 01-27-2005 10:44 AM

Well he is 6'4 so that's probably why he doesn't look 260

rdsknfn2003 01-27-2005 10:51 AM

My brother is 6'4 and he looks verymuch like he is 260 and he works out like a football player. he's huge.

Daseal 01-27-2005 10:52 AM

Cooley is an Hback - which means we normally have Hback and one TE in at the same time. We have to pull Cooley out for 2 TE sets, extra WRs etc

rdsknfn2003 01-27-2005 11:07 AM

I understand that but didnt he play in the TE spot. Isn't that what Biggs said what Cooley would do. Be versitile.

Daseal 01-27-2005 11:36 AM

Either way, I want a blocking TE, Cooley nor Royal fit that description.

TheMalcolmConnection 01-27-2005 11:49 AM

Who do you think would be the best blocking TE we could pick up? I haven't looked too much at the draft charts for TEs.

rdsknfn2003 01-27-2005 11:51 AM

There isn't many TE comming out not good ones anyway.
