This is part of the reason why our defense is so quick.wha? i thought TE's were generally slow.. i figured they would take LB's, beef them up and make them DE's.. and Safeties, beef them up and make them LB's.. and CB's, beef them up and make them Safeties, etc.I think slow is relative.. TE are slow compared to WR and RBs, but I would think TE are faster than DE's on average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Word is that the staff thinks we will have the full 25 available. Throw in a few greyshirts and/or non-qualifiers, and we may be looking at signing close to 30 guys again. So we still have a ways to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
