Unless Royal aced classes at the Donnie Warren school for big time blocking for TEs this offseason I don't expect him to be on the field a whole lot this year.

I think with a couple hypnosis sessions you will think he is heath miller in no time. I am really getting concerned and think you need to seek help.

Im sure we can get a nice TE in the draft for the pick we get for Ramsey or our second rounder, whichever is higher.

I don't think TE's are worth such high draft picks.

I agree, especially blocking tight ends. Blocking is a skill that can be taught so I don't see why royal couldn't become a good blocker, and he has shown himself to be an effective pass catcher in the redzone.

imo there is very little emphasis in college to develop blocking tight ends. Pass catching tight ends are the hot thing and even in the last draft you will find that all the top tight ends had an emphasis on pass catching. I think the coaching staff just needs to teach the guys we got how to block. These days we put too much emphasis on getting finished products from the draft, we have the best coaching staff in the league I don't understand why skills like blocking can't just be developed.

Or draft a guard/tackle.

Royal is a good redzone target, we can alternate between him and serllers when they are needed....

LMAO!!! We should all pitch in and give CNY a Heath Miller jersey.

I'm a big Royal fan... in fact I am a fan of anyone the coaches feel should be on the team. the name on the front of the jersey is a heck of a lot more important than the name on the back.
