It goes without saying that these two have improved but, there is reason to believe that both will have much larger roles in Grizz’s offense come September.  There were times last season when it felt like we should be getting Tucker more involved in the offense to close out some games. I think he becomes a closer of sorts for our offense next season.  Certainly not like Alstott but, just someone we use in 3rd/4th and short to wear defenses down late. 

Culp, he is rangy and athletic and seems to have some fight in him.  Not sure what kind of pass blocker he is but, I think he starts to emerge as well.

Would be difficult to do but I do think we could potentially be a better offense in 2025.  Our schedule is a smidge easier than last season and we have young guys ready to step up.

i don’t know. They seem like roster fillers to me

sure they had some good plays and glimpses in 2024 but would anyone be surprised if these guys weren’t on the roster in 2025

Right now, of course, but let’s see what positions are taken in the draft. 

tucker had a game for the ages and still wasn’t used after that so not sure why that would change under new OC

Have drawn a similar conclusion, and as BC says, having them develop would be great.

Right now, both are just JAG’s.

Culp is a great fit for this offensive scheme as he a capable blocker and able to do well moving in space. A very natural tall and smooth player that can hit the zones with ease.  

Tucker is actually primed to level up if he works hard because I am not sure that White will return a Buc in the future.

Was a very vocal fan of the Culp pick. 

We got a small glimpse of what he can bring to the table. 

More athleticism, speed, and playmaking than Otton and Durham.

Culp has a limited role.  He can be a weapon but isn't big enough to be a regular TE.  Tucker also will continue to be the 3rd RB.  Both players will probably see an uptick of opportunities, but they won't change their roles IMO.

It will be interesting the evolution of these 3 tight ends. I am a big Otton fan, just think he is an all around very smart, competetive football player. And I liked what I saw from Durham and Culp . I am excited about the growth of this unit and utilizing 2 te sets tailored to the traits of the group, but otton is my guy
