Good point. After careful analysis and much thought, I came to the conclusion that about half of a TEs value comes from his blocking ability, his most vital asset.
Feel free to disagree though. I suppose a good case could be made that all TEs block similarly, and that the only value of a TE is in his pass catching ability. I just don't think the position has evolved all that much.
