Good points on both accounts (fwd fumble and advancing a fumble).  I can see why this is diminishing Tyreek's value on the open market.  His role is limited to catching passes as a WR and scoring TDs.

Perhaps a better investment would be to sign Mike Gesicki and run a 4 TE set. Picture this:

Engram - Farrell - Morse - Gesiki - Strange

Then we really throw them a curve by running out Little and Harrison and lining them up as wingbacks

       Engram - Farrell - Morse - Gesiki - Strange
Little                        Lawrence                      Harrison

Then lineup BTj and Agnew Duvernay wide and Bigsby in the backfield

                        Engram - Farrell - Morse - Gesiki - Strange                  BTj
Duvernay    Little                       Lawrence                      Harrison

                                                   Tank

I think this should be our new base set, imagine the chaos created by linemen taking the Rooksi any of 4 different directions but the jet/end around/reverse options and a screen pass to Anton? Holy cow what an offense that would be!
