I'd like another TE brought it simply for competition and piece of mind, if we get more that would be great, BUT I think OL, DL, OLB, ILB are more important and I think it's easier to find and use WR's to open up the field than it is to find a TE. Gronks, Olsens, Finley type TE's are not out there all the time to just bring in. If we find one, great.
But 50+ and approaching double digit TD's by a TD in any offense is pretty decent production. his YPC wasn't great, but again, he's not the type that is going to open up the offense and nothing else around him was working either. What was Cobb's YPC last year? he was up around 14 a couple seasons, and last year I think he was at the lowest of his career. I expect RR's averages to go up if other things are working around him.
Rodgers yards per catch was terrible, ranking 66th out of 73 players (six of the seven players ranked behind him being RBs) with at least 50 receptions. IMO he´s fine as a red zone threat but the Packers need an athletic TE stretching a defense and opening up some space for receivers as well.
There´s no doubt ILB as another position in dire need of an upgrade, DL and OLB depends on which players are re-signed until the start of free agency. I would be fine with adding some much needed depth on the OL.
