We all know JC seems more comfortable throwing to TE's too. Since I'm bored too, i'll say 5 TD's, 500 yards. I'd say Thomas would be a close 2nd.

5 TDs and 500 yards is an awful lot of production for a #2 TE. Supposing Campbell throws for 3,300 yards and 20 TDs (a good year), Moss should at least put up 900 yards, ARE should at least get another 400, Cooley another 700, and Portis (who Zorn wants to get even more involved in the passing game) another 400. That leaves us with 900 yards between Thomas, Kelly and Davis. I'd be surprised if Davis had more than 250 yards and 3 TDs.
