One of my favorite players. He hasn't been targeted much, but has shown the ability to both go up high and to lay-out for receptions. He comes back to help-out the QB in busted plays, and he blocks unselfishly. I hope that we open-up a little bit in our passing strategy to allow both he and Jeaune to get more targets this year.
