Which current 49ers Tight end will have a breakout 2016?

Agreed ...there's no excuse why he shouldn't produce next year , he better get a lot of work with the Jugs machine during the off season , his blocking is solid, hopefully Nixon can improve his route running and skills getting YAC

Bell. He transitioned from QB to TE in a run first pistol offense. Still learning. Good athlete.

I would hope so but the fact that he can't catch a cold after this long doesn't fill me with hope. He had tons of time to work with the jugs machine since he was drafted.
If he learns to catch, he will be great.

Don't know but this...

#49ers and TE Garrett Celek are close to finalizing long term deal, source said.

Works for me. He is a solid #2 TE. If McDonald steps up and Bell continues to develop, they'll be pretty set at the position.

Celek was the only #49ers TE last year with a positive overall grade (+0.8).

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.

The key is that both TE's have to be able to block if youre going to have them on the field in a high tempo offense. Ertz is a s**tty blocker. Philly Celek isnt as good a receiver but a very good blocker.


I can see McDonald and SF Celek getting a lot of snaps due to their blocking ability. McDonald has the outstanding athleticism but needs to improve his concentration when it comes to catching the ball. He is a natural hands catcher but has s**t focus at times. Dude needs to talk to a sports therapist and hash his issues out.

Generic VANCE narrative expletive etc etc

Totally!

butthole vance should just quit

Celek. The guy catches everything thrown at him and he gets open.

Oj Howard...he will be perfect for our offense

How about they play a full season without injuries first.

Blake bell is going to be a star

I hope we use a higher draft pick on one.

No more clowning around at TE. We need a legit redzone threat. Vance is the best physcially but his hands are s**t. Bell still needs to develop and Celek is just ok.
