TE

[Cheesehead Craig]

I'm a bit old school when it comes to TEs. I'd rather have a Jason Witten-type who just catches the ball and can get you 7-12 yds when you need it and can block pretty well, than the Jimmy Grahmn-type guy. I get the benefits Jimmy brings to the table, but it's a preference thing.

So I'm on board with pb at this point. Let's get a guy out there who may not be able to stretch the field, but he's not going to eff things up and makes solid plays.

That is precisely my point. I would be fine with the receiving half of Franks' game. The TEs weren't lights out blocking for Lacy last year either. Packers need a passing game in the middle and short areas of the field to worry those deep safeties.

The receiving half of Finley's game alone is enough to make an NFL roster but I'm not so sure about Franks'. Really I'd just like to see our guys do something our WR's can't do whether its block a DE or out-jump a safety. Otherwise I don't get the point of even using them.

Not many teams use a WR to block inside. A lot of teams use an TE to block inside even if he is just waving at opponents. I think both Bostick and Rodgers can beat a safety to the ball.
