Competition for Smythe Looks like..

I don't think so. Judging from his build, and combine numbers, he is more in the MG mold.

Probably more depth as a receiving TE, than as a blocker.

Unless it's goal line don't expect our TEs to be blocking as much in a spread system. At least not solo blocking DEs and OLBs more chips and get out in space. This is more of a backup plan in case Roberts is not healthy

Dolphins need go get all in one te next year draft and stop bs around w te position....

Baby Gronk when he was coming out

Hasn’t amount to much of anything tho

Perhaps Miami is looking to keep 4 TE's on the roster?

 

[Hargitt01]

Another potential tool for the tool box. Let see if he can do something in camp. If anything it promotes competition for the other TE's not name Mike Gesicki. I'm all for it. Cost is minimal, still Ina rookie contract, something to prove. Come on down.

Dolphins Acquire Tight End from Bears

The Miami Dolphins bolstered their tight end corps with the reported trade for former Chicago Bears draft pick Adam Shaheen

www.si.com

"Talk about a Cinderella story. Shaheen was an all-conference pick in basketball and football in Galena, Ohio, and signed with Division II Pittsburgh-Johnstown to play hoops (5.5 pts, 3.1 reb per game in 2013-2014). He then transferred to Ashland to play football, which turned out to be the right move. Shaheen caught two passes for 85 yards as the team's No. 3 tight end in 2014. He then took over the starting job the next year, catching 70 passes (for 803 yards and 10 TDs), a Division II record for tight ends. The two-time AFCA All-American and first-team All-Great Lakes Intercollegiate Athletic Conference pick had another great year in 2016, setting a school record with 16 touchdowns among his 57 receptions for 867 yards."

This will end up being a superb trade for Miami.

Everyone named Adam I know is a LeBron James level of athlete, Einstein level of intelligence, and Brad Pitt level of good looks.

Those guys that excell in both phases are rare in today's game.

Usually players with the build to be dominant in a power running game are not athletic enough to scare defenses as a reciever.

Where does that buffoon Gase fit in that scenario?
