IMO the need for a receiving TE is lesser than what it was before we traded for Julio, and the other no name receivers stepped up in camp.
Hence, Firkser and 2 blocking TE's might be the way we go.
I know this may be a dead horse subject, but given that the team is 8-2 with the offense looking out of sorts for most of the season, and given it will be aa while before we get Henry and Julio back, I wonder if the team should reach out to Walker. We have 7 Games left in the regular season, and Julio is out at least 3 weeks. While Delanie may not be the machine he once was, he was a Pro Bowl MVP and had great hands. Two years removed from his injury- if he's healthy he would be a bigger threat than our current tight end crew. We haven't been in this position since 2008. The guy wants a Super Bowl, and I think he still could contribute in a way that's meaningful down the stretch. Thoughts?

DW82 trying to have it 3 ways, not surprising
first he was a damn BU TE in his first contract...
second he signed with the Titans who throw to TEs way more than average and he was the starter getting majority of snaps/targets
third he wants to play in a 'big market' but he would use his stats from Tennessee to make his case for HoF

Pruitt is having a better year than his last couple, Firkser has been a disappointmentFirk and Pruitt were fine last year, Downing just doesn't know how to use them
I think we probably draft a mid round TE this coming draft?So the team averaged 5.8 TE receptions per game last year. With Jonnu, who is a total mismatch every passing play.
This year, the team averages 4.4 TE receptions per game. Given that we didn't replace Jonnu and Firkser is a bum this year, that isn't bad. I doubt anyone would have predicted that Swaim and Pruitt would average 3 catches a game and have 5 TD's in the first 10.

I was thinking with no 2nd round pick, a RB may be a bigger need in 3 with Evans probably goneNot sure if mid round makes the most sense unless there is a sleeper there and often that is where the best comes come from. Might be a little more aggressive and pick one earlier if the value is right. I believe Jannu was a 3rd round pick.
