Jordan Whittington

Arroyo is solid. His frame and strength should make him formidable TE in the league. If they can snag him in the 3rd, that would be great!

That injury history might make him available then.

That injury history might make him available then.

My hopes are that he's healthy as a Ram or injured on another team (not horrific just not available most of the time).

Not sure I agree that he'd replace Higbee inline in any grouping... but I love the kid. It's his health that scares me. And then getting that knee injury at the Senior Bowl. Ugh.

The difference in the two in the pass game are night and day. He is much more smooth and athletic and would relegate Higs to the inline option who occasionally beats a defense because they don't expect it, which is what his usage should be.

Depends what you are trying to see in the numbers I guess.....
Nabers being the focus of a bad offense (being given a lot of opps) vs Whittington being the 4/5th WR on a blah offense....fewer opps.
The numbers only show so much.
A rookie coming and putting up non eye popping numbers is to be expected.
Is he a bust?
Is Corbin a bust?
Small sample size is the key thing there I think.

@Corbin is definitely a bust

One skill that Whittington has that I love is his acceleration. You can see he was a former RB.

 

[Corbin]

@Corbin is definitely a bust

But I can not produce and sign a contract for 10 million guaranteed after

Won't get much chance with Tutu now being an apparent focus of the offense. Too bad I like his tool set a lot more as do most around here or did until Tutu was given all that cheddar.

He will be 4th or 5th on depth chart and special teams seems like they wanna switch the offense up I like it
