Split from another thread. This guy clearly has not lived up to his billing as a first round pick. He's flashed potential in games but has finished every season on IR. This year, he's had a chance to step up in Gronk's absence and has failed to do so. His rookie contract is up at the end of this year.
The question is, do you bring him back at a decent salary or move on from him? I say move on. Brady has maybe one more year left after this and I can see Gronk coming back for that one more year. Brate is a solid #2. The beauty is the 2022 draft class is deep with tight ends, and I mean DEEP. The Bucs could snag a Pro Bowl caliber tight end in the third or even fourth round to learn under Gronk next year then unleash in 2023.
