You realize he clocked his top speed in like the past 5 seasons in the playoffs? [Reply]

I do. But his value is no longer on being the fastest tight end. It's being the smartest craftiest one. He's no longer running long routes down the field because he can outrun linebackers. He sits in zones or uses leverage and footwork to beat man coverage. The fact that he still has 20 yards of explosiveness doesn't mean he's the same dude. [Reply]

I want to see how Kinglsey holds up in the preseason games.
Plan B if he struggles is signing Donovan Smith... not relying on Wanya Morris IMO. [Reply]

He hit 20mph, his fastest ever timed, in the SB last year when he put us in an easy FG range for the tie and a chance to win. [Reply]
