I think Falk's ceiling is a career backup. As far as Dwayne Allen he's the best blocking TE we have on the roster now.
The Dolphins aren't tanking.
I actually have no problem with the signing I just don’t understand it based on the offseason noise. I’m hoping they plan on using O’Leary as the FB and just needed another blocking TE.
I like the signing but I just feel like it's pointless unless they want him for our future but by then he will be kind of old. Signing this guy probably wont help us win a extra game but it will make the team better. So are we tanking or rebuilding ? A bit confused.
Because there has never been a team that that plans to tank. The Colts did not tank for Luck. They made some roster decisions that had a high probability of leading to a poor season, but they still tried to win every game.
I've been saying this all along to the posters that are down on him already. We didn't draft him to block, we drafted him to outrun the linebackers down the seam. Until we do that, he's going to continue to look pedestrian. Gase did not use him enough properly.The problem we had last year in the TE position is that we drafted Gesicki and tried to play him like Goedert. I would hope that this means we start to use Mike for what he was supposed to be used for instead of as an inline blocker. It also allows Smythe to learn from Allen as I dont think they have a lot in common from a football standpoint.
We need to start using Mike like Jimmy Graham and this may be a step in that direction.
