He's proved he can beat you in a lot of ways since his freshman year

Even if you just had to go tight end because all the cool kids are doing it, Orson Charles was still on the damn board.

Don't want to be rude but they like E-Rod better. Talked about his versatility. I thought Charles was overhyped.

Not suggesting he comes in with same tools, but new TE Evan Rodriguez had official 40 time of 4.53 at combine. Greg Olsen ran a 4.51.


People were talking about a need to build some depth at TE, for some reason. So I guess that is achieved.

Sure Charles was overhyped. That's why he fell to the fourth round. He's still a much more talented all-around player.

I think this guy will surprise. H-Back city...

When Tice was in Minny - Jimmy Kleinsasser was brought in.

This guy is a more athletic version of Kleinsasser.

It also probably means the end of the Tyler Clutts era. We'll see.

One of the knocks on this guy is his height. Aaron Hernandez is 6'2".

The kid can fly, so maybe he will be an added weapon for Jay.

Grid nailed it, turns out he will be an H-Back, not a true TE. Bears love this kid, apparently.

watch his tapes, blocks on runs most of the time.

And I am OK if he is really like Hernandez, but Hernandez is a WR, despite what the position says. He catches the ball in his hands, without his body, he runs WR routes, he is not in to block.
