I like what I saw from Dwelley last year, and by many reports, he's the second-best TE on the field in camp. His biggest weakness was blocking. Hopefully, that's improved. Dude is already a solid receiver.

Kittle says Dwelley, who is No. 2 on the #49ers depth chart right now, is making big strides in his second season. https://t.co/lQedEOeVvf

With you on this. Like Dwelley and Toilolo as 2 and 3 with Celek off the team and Smith to the PS

I don't think Kaden would last long on the PS

This. I'll be shocked if Dwelley makes the team.

I see you, Dwelley. 👀

QB Nick Mullens was solid again and had a nice touchdown pass to TE Ross Dwelley in red zone. Mullens read the coverage and threw Dwelley open, letting it go just before he came out of his break. The type of anticipation and throw that can go a long way in tight quarters like RZ.

If the reports out of camp are true and he is developing into a consistent TE, he could have a big year. Anticipating teams having a safety over the top watching kittle, he will get consistent coverage by a LB. He should win that every time. This TE combo could grow into the Hernandez and Gronkowski tandem. I know I'm being optimistic, but to have two good pass catching TE's would be awesome and open up so much.

According to what Matt Barrows said yesterday, Smith is pushing Dwelley for the #2 TE spot.

Cohn is lusting over Dwelley right now. LOL

Question though for all. The #2 TE in this offense is usually primarily a blocker. Celek. Toilolo. Does anyone think Kyle might start using a 2nd TE more as a receiver?

I don't see why anyone would want to keep Kittle the receiver off the field. Toilolo was graded the best blocking TE in the NFL if I remember correctly, so he seems like the perfect TE2 to give Kittle a breather.

My thoughts too but from MB to Biderman to Cohnhead, they all seem to be focusing on the pass catchers. Huh...
