I think you undervalue roster spots. It’s hurts your chances of improving when guys who could never crack the startling lineup are here. Guys like EQ, Feeney, Tonyan and Lewis need to go. I’d much rather roll the dice on a UDFA blocking TE in that Lewis spot.
Those veterans ought to be depth on an established roster. Not on a team in a youth movement.
Who’s Lewis stealing time from? He’s just an excellent blocker still that costs little to nothing. A lot of these guys could be signed for very little guaranteed and we don’t need to be blowing holes on our roster for the sake of potentially developing UDFAs. I think you’re undervaluing depth.
This year nobody. Next year, hopefully it’s a rookie inline TE with a little more long term potential.
You undervalue depth and situational players. EQ is a great blocker. Feeney is versatile. Lewis is extremely good at setting the edge.
Just because a player isn’t a starter doesn’t mean they don’t help the team in significant ways
On a good team, yes. You need those guys. On a bad team, you need opportunities for players to break out.
