You may be onto something.
Anyone have an idea what Kelly's TE' do in his system? How many are used?
The TE is very inconsistent under Kellys system, Ertz had some big games down the stretch, for the most part was a non factor and lost a lot of snaps to celek because he couldn't block.
From what I've read, Vance is a pretty solid blocker. So he should continue to get plenty of snaps. I just think Kaepernick's flat line drive passes don't help receivers like Vance and Vernon, when he was still with us.

How would u guys feel about Kellen Winslow? We can bring him in for cheap, and he's in great shape, been working on a comback this past year he wants to return next season. I'm all for it. 1yr 1mil what do we got to lose. He's talented, think he still has some left in the tank just needs motivation.

Not sure we need to go after over the hill prospects at TE.

We will pick one up somewhere, but other than Vance for blocking, I would say the jury is out on the others.

I think if Celek can stay healthy, he's smart and underrated. They need 2 good viable TE. McD still has chance to be the other. Bell hasn't shown anything to say either way. We need depth at this position because they work in physical areas and traffic. Tight end around the league usually missed a few game a year due to injuries.

I like Celek. But if we're talking "breakout" itd have to be Busta. Our TEs arent all that inpressive tho.

My guess is blake or busta. Frying pan hands would to have some epiphany on consentration to be a real factor and neither he or celek have proven to be that durable.
