His strength is blocking and he will catch those balls that Royal dropped. Cooley and Fauria are completely different.

Yea, he had only 8 catches last year (57 yds). He would basically be another lineman and redzone threat (hopefully). Downside is he is 34 years old.

he only had 8 catches cause he was the #3 on a two TE team.
he's a great all around TE, but he's old. however i'd love to have him for a year or two. he might be better than campbell for a year, but obviously campbell would be a much longer term solution.
