It will be interesting to see if a deal can be agreed to before Keller hits free agency. Other free agent TEs include Jared Cook and Fred Davis. _________________

I'm 50/50 on Keller. I really like him and think the bad QB play & offensive play calling has been killing him lately. But I also would like to see us go for a 6'5+ redzone type of TE.
So I'll be happy if we sign him. If not, I would expect a FA or us to draft one within the first 4 rounds. _________________

If he's looking for top 5 TE money he can go on his way. He's not worth it.
Hopefully his bad year helps him come cheap cause he's a fringe top 10 TE at best. _________________

I'm also hit or miss on Keller. I'm curious to see what type of money he wants.
He's always banged up and he can't block very well.
Having said that, he's obviously been underutilized. But I wouldn't be upset to save the money if he's asking too much and platoon the TE position. Cumberland played well and I think there are a bunch of 2nd day TE's that could play in the NFL.
While he may not even get drafted, I'm big on Phil Lutzenkirchen from Auburn as a guy I'd like to see in the rotation. _________________ “You don’t burn out from going too fast. You burn out from going too slow and getting bored.”

| Let him walk and draft Dion Sims in the 4th. Sign a vet who will come relatively cheap. |

Cook is going to get the Franchise Tag from the info. I have read. |

I'm not trusting any TE in this draft to turn better than Keller. I would be surprised if any do. _________________

They should not sign keller, sign Cumberland and draft Escobar in the 3rd or 4th. _________________

I would bring him back, he had a awful QB throwing to him for his career and he fits into Marty's system well. plus we don't need to create another hole on offense. _________________

Cook wont make FA. They will tag him. Keller is the 3rd best TE on the market. If he makes it he is gone. I wouldn't be surprised if he went to the rams. Schotty loved to call his number. _________________

| I have no real use for Keller, especially for the money he is going to ask for. |

| Fasano will be a better pick due to money and bring Cumberland back. Keller isnt that much better then Cumberland. |
