He's the H Back, not a true TE.

They use him in the passing game like the TE though. He only works out of the backfield on occasion. He usually motions out of it. He is our good TE.

In Gibbs offense, they're isn't a need for a "Tony Gonzales"....the pass catcher,in other words, is the H-Back. While the TE is primarly used for pass protection and run-blocking. (in a perfect world)

I guess I should have added the winking smiley to the end of my statement, but I was kind of joking during that post. I know he pretty much plays the role of the TE, but a lot of people were complaining about Robert Royal and saying that we needed a TE. People were saying that we should have drafted Heath Miller because Cooley's an H Back. It was a joke, I know his role in the O.

Didn't mean to beat you up

I think Royal will be back next year, BTW.

Royal had a couple of bad games, but he really bounced back towards the end. I think he convinced the staff that he deserved to be here. He'll definitely be back.....at least I hope.
