Dude deserves a thread and this article is good reason to start one:

Important note here -
Dede curiously plays quite a bit from the F spot in Flip's offense. Knowing that elements of Flip's offense are derived from Pederson's in philly - that means Dede is running routes and playing roles similar to what Ertz would be doing in the philly version.
F is your "move" tight end typically and can be placed in a variety of positions formationally, but are often tasked with catching balls over the middle in traffic.

The first guy never gets him down... that says a lot with how small he is.
The description of the position has me wondering if Oliver might be taking over some of those reps.

Very possible.
(they can always work Westbrook easily at slot or Z if they wish to keep his snaps up)
I like DeDe, but if he wants to maintain a career in the The NFL he needs to gain 10-15 lbs. dude weighs less than me.
I do feel De Filippo has been seeing what he has to a degree early on this year. The WR group is very good but who works best in which position, who can do this, who can't do that.
I think that's the best thing we can give him though, options. We aren't dependent on one guy and have to get him open. If a team doubles Dede, you can move him with say Chark or that leaves other WRs in single coverage and take advantage like that. I look at what De Filippo did in Minnesota with Diggs and Thielen, they weren't top WRs before him, I think he can do the same here.

That also explains why he and Foles seemed to have such a great connection in camp. Hopefully Oliver can begin taking over some of those reps.
