I really love Gesicki but is he worth the big bucks?

I would actually want another good WR in his place(Ford who I like is not a #3) Wilson has been underwhelming.

Smythe is actually the better complete TE and Tua does seem to be comfortable with him as well.

Id rather make sure Ogbah stays. I like Gesicki but if cap space is tight (i dont know if it is) i feel we could live without him. He's slightly overrated IMO - as in really good, not elite.

it isn't.

we have practically the most cap space in the league next year.

upwards of 60 or 70 million dollars (guessing).

whoever is running the cap really knows what they are doing.

we can do whatever we want to do this offseason.

Nice - in that case, pay the man!
 
I think considering our cap situation you pay Gesicki because he's one of the biggest TE mismatches in the game right now. We can't be jettisoning playmakers unless some other team goes out of their mind in what they're willing to pay him. If that's the case, tag him and trade him to them for a bunch of picks.
 
I'm probably in the minority but I am not sure I am committing to him long term this off-season. They can franchise him and it would be less money than signing him LT. I like Sicki, but not sure I love him. He doesn't run great routes, get's zero separation, and while he's gotten better, he's still a bad blocking TE. He will make the spectacular catch which stands out, but he will miss many he should make. He also gets little YAC yards due to the lack of separation and not great route running.

Miami will have $75m or more, but they should resign Ogbah and they only have 26 players under contract for 2022. They will also need to address Howard. That's $75m is going to go quick.

The bottom line is we suck at using him.


He's worth every penny, but not if we can't use him correctly.

I’ve been in the minority about this, but tell me what he does that would require big money?

He’s a slot receiver that doesn’t create much separation, doesn’t break tackles(although he finally broke one last night), doesn’t run after the catch well, he’s just a big target. We have to stop labeling him as a TE, because he’s not, he doesn’t bring that value to the table.
