Is a tight end who can't block a tight end?

I think it depends more on the base package... You have TEs that motion into fullback, vice versa, WRs who motion into RBs (end-arounds), RBs who motion into the slot, HBs who motion into QBs, vice versa... it's not clear anymore, prime reason why the presumably "clear-as-mud" rules of the franchise tag need to be completely overhauled. Until then you will have players being overpaid for positions they don't earnestly play.

Eta: and no, I am not saying that I think Graham is not worth a hybrid TE/WR paycheck, I am saying he is not worth WR tag money ($12.3M Base). Neither in short-term nor in a contract.
