So were LaFleurs. You ever attended games he played or seen him in the NFL?
With him, no, but I remember seeing him as a kid. I'm not denying he was great. You seem anal about busting my balls when all I was doing was stressing how good TG is, so it wouldn't affect viewing our other TEs as being labeled "not good". I know Lafleur was a wonderful TE. You don't have to beat home the point.

I hate the term best of anything because it takes all 11. It bothers me when people say Fournette was gOAT RB not ever watching all the great backs I’ve seen play there. Judging him vs Alexander or Dalton Hilliard is almost discrediting what those men did and who they were.
Jerry Stovall was a GREAT BACK. Casanova would have been an all
Timer had he stayed at RB. Dalton Hilliard was the best I’ve seen in the hole and had incredible balance. Ask Ronnie Lott how hard he was to tackle in the NFL.
To be a complete TE requires everything you
Mentioned about Great hands, speedand a Great blocker which David LaFleur ran a 4.84 at 6’7 1/8” 280 lbs at the combine was all that in a package. The Cowboys moved up to get him because of his blocking skills. That’s why I was hoping JD was like his dad because he was the most complete TE I’ve ever seen in P&G.

Brian Kichen was a really good RB at UHigh carried them to a state title and ended up an all SEC TE for LSU. Another one that is rarely mentioned on here. Todd Kinchen was an electric player as I’ve seen with the ball in his hands. Skyler green Reminded me of him on punt and kick returns.

In my original post, I said he MIGHT BE. Do you know whst might means? I never once used the term "GOAT". It's a weird hardon you have for Lafleur. I already agreed that he's a wonderful player. Can you drop it now? It amazes me what some of you bitch about. Go find a hobby.

No idea why the flurry of down votes.

I would think most of our TEs have some strengths and are capable but lack experience. I doubt any come close to TDG in the passing game but I would think some could block as well as he could.

While Trey'Dez is out this is a great opportunity for someone.

Green may be the best TE in the nation. If you expect to have another of the same talent level sitting on the bench you are beyond hope.

Lane namedropped him in a presser the other day. Noticed he was in on the last drive.
