Juwan is fine, but after that... Lucas Krull? Do NOT say Taysom. Any good free agents still looking for a spot? Shame about Foster Moreau, he could've slid right in.

We did grab up a four year TE from Alabama as a blocker so maybe not all is lost LoL.

Not many options now but plenty when camp cuts start.

I think thats the plan for depth unless they know something we all don't.

Don't count Moreau out just yet.

Lots of time to figure that out.

He has stage 2 cancer. It’s treatable, but VERY unlikely he could have treated in enough time to be ready to play a NFL season. He’s got far more to focus on than playing football this year

Think Moreau probably plays the second half of the season.

Cameron Brate can probably be signed in the meantime

There’s many a dude on the free agent market that can replace / improve over trautman.
Woulda been great to add some talent at TE.
Trading trautman is probably addition bh subtraction in terms of roster depth.

From personal experience, the treatments are often very rough and can have quite an effect. Of course, everyone's body reacts differently. Hopefully his is not bad.

Could be hearing the ref say whatever # Saldiveri is is eligible, a lot.

I don't think the officials will give the same penalty benefits to the Saints the way they gave the Vikings, in the playoff loss a few years ago. ( Rudolph pushoff)

Besides he is older, I don't think he has much left in the tank

Not anymore, he applied for and was accepted by the AARP.

The Pats just signed Gesicki...maybe see if Hunter Henry is available? Maybe we could get Tyler Higbee or Tyler Conklin, but I don't think they are much of an upgrade.

If they think Moreau has a chance to play at all this year, they could sign Vannett back to compete for a spot as a blocking TE.

if nothing else works out, we can get a player equal to or better than troutman was from the players cut from other teams after the final cuts are made

We need to sign a vet for sure, but we did sign 2 UDFAs. I literally know nothing about either—could 1 emerge as the 4th TE? 3rd in a pinch if somebody gets injured?
