Message: <blockquote data-quote="HardRightEdge" data-source="post: 501145">Wes Welker doesn't stretch the field...neither do many of the slot guys in the league. Quickness over long speed is typical. Should we exclude them? Further, here is a list of the TEs who caught 50 or more balls last season, which is equal to or more than you'd expect in a typical #3 WR: Witten: 110Gonzalez: 93Graham: 85Myers: 79Miller: 71Olson: 69Gresham: 64Daniels: 62Finley: 61Pitta: 61Pettigrew: 59Celek: 57Bennett: 55Gronkowski: 55Rudolph: 53Lewis: 52Tamme: 52Hernandez: 51 Gates, Watson, and Davis didn't even make the list for various reasons. Half the names in the top half of this list illustrate that the TE doesn't have to be 6'5" and run a 4.6 to be integral to the passing game. When you consider most teams concentrate their targets among 3 receivers, the TE is as often (if not more often) among those 3.</blockquote>
