it’s interesting

we have way more talent at WR and a good freshmen class with more experience.

I wouldnt be surprised to see more 2 TE sets but also I wouldnt be surprised to see us in 11 all the time like last year.

When you have TE’s, really good ones, Kelly wants to use them. In comparison, NFL teams like this option.

FYI: The top teams in the NFL in 12 personnel usage last year were Seattle (30%), Green Bay (30%) and Kansas City (28%), according to Football Outsiders. If you count both 12 and 13 personnel, the top “tight end” teams last year were Seattle (41%), Kansas City (38%) and Tennessee (38%).

A little of trivia. A few years back one college had 4 TE’s in NFL camps in the same year. That college, Rice University. Not really known as a TE factory.

Way more talent at WR? I would argue no you don’t. You have studs at TE. In all honesty this new TE we are getting is probably better than Arik.
