I'm happy to have James O back in the fold. I agree that he is an very good blocking TE and when thrown to he's a good pass catcher as well. The Jaguars let him taste FA and got him back at an bargain price I'd imagine. Good resigning.

O'Shaughnessy is good depth.  He's versatile at the TE position, and can contribute in ST.

Neither Swaim or O'Shaughnessy are going to prevent the Jags from drafting a TE.

I Concur. I too feel that we need to draft an pass catching TE but I now feel that it probably won't be at the #7 pick. The position is deep this year w/quality players to pick from in my opinion. If/when we select at that position he'll have to be an difference maker to say the least.

Welllll...as of right now he's the best tight end on the roster.

I agree, he's on the bottom tier of the roster but there's nothing wrong with wanting those guys to be productive too when they get the chance. He seemed like a good special teams player.

I'm condescending. That means I talk down to you.

Hock, James O, Swaim, Koyack?

Not bad.

However..... If James O is a really good blocker, perhaps they take the more talented receiving type in Fant over Hock?
I prefer Hock... just spit balling.

If Fant is the more talented receiver why did he have more than 200 less yards?  Fant is faster but I dont think he is the better reciever.  James O is nowhere near the blocker Hockenson is.  Some stats from pff you can take with a grain of salt.

I was comparing Swaim and O'Shaughnessy as prospects (2014 and 2013 respectively) and they were actually almost identical on paper.

O'Shaughnessy went in the 5th and Swaim in the 7th. 


Eerily similar pro day numbers (since it's draft season):

I do think Swaim may have a bit of an edge in the hands category at this point in their careers. 
Regardless, they are good tight ends to round out the position group (assuming this front office intends to draft a higher rated prospect 4 1/2 weeks from now.)

Let's not look past Swaim. He may be the better of the two at this point in their careers.

Decent role player. He may heavily improve just for the fact of the QB behind center. Foles loves his tight ends and can be very accurate.

The Cowboys might have the 2nd worst TE corps in the league after us, and they showed no interest in keeping Swaim.

Yeah atm it's still a bottom 5 unit in the NFL , I'd still be up for bringing ASJ back. Not that I think he or the team would wanna do that

---

I agree with some of the others, I hope we draft 2 TEs

I understand Dallas's circumstances at the position because both of their starting TEs retired last season w/Written being the best of them. If they didn't show interest as you've eluded to, it's probably due to being placed on IR for various injuries each of the past three years.

Actually the Cowboys have Witten again (unretired) and Blake Jarwin. Jarwin is essentially just like Swaim, maybe a tiny bit better. They also are in position to snag a good TE in the draft with picks at 27, 58 and 91. 

They simply didn't need to pay Swaim when they can draft a guy to round out their corps. The injuries surely didn't help his chances of sticking around either.

Not super impressed with the moves, but at least they are addressing the right positions. Lets pray that they still get a TE with an early pick.

Now go re-sign Corey Grant.

No pain, no gain.
