rudy speaking out

Post by slapnut19 »

i agree with what he's saying. in the fantasy football world we live in now tight ends are judged by their stats, not by what they bring to the offense as a whole.

That said, he's far from the best in either role.

I would say he's up there when it comes to catching the ball but thats about it. He definitely has a solid pair of mits

He isn't bad at blocking, but I think there are better options. He reminds me opf a faster Jermaine Wiggins.

You don't pay a guy $7 million per year to be a good blocker.

Ruldolf blew two Td's last season(Oakland Raiders wide open)

The chargers TD was a little behind but IMO; any TE that considers himself in top tier
rankings, should have caught the pass. In fact the very next play in the Oakland game Teddy threw
a pick, in the end zone. IMO I would ask Rudolf to take a big pay cut and throw in some
incentives. If he refused I would trade, or cut him from the Vikings.
