New TE via trade...Nick Vannett

[Superbelt]

I'm not ready to say anything is wrong with the OL yet...yeah, they did struggle against, SF, but it wasn't all game long, both OTs got beat a couple of times for quick pressure...overall it wasn't bad, but when you lose everything gets magnified.

I still feel like Sarrett was around Munch long enough to learn how he went about his business, preparation and game day...but again when you 0-3...everything is a problem.

Right.

I'm not throwing Sarrett under the bus... yet.

I'm wondering how much authority he has.

I also have to wonder how much Munchak had input on the offensive schemes & playcalls.

Seems steep price for this guy...possibly 1 year rental...

Vannett was a third-round pick in 2016 out of Ohio State and is in the final year of his rookie contract. He has caught 48 passes for 463 yards and four touchdowns in 42 regular-season games. His best season was 2018, with 29 catches for 269 yards and three touchdowns.

The 1 yr rental is concerning...as of now, he's going to be the TE2 so they will get snaps out of him this yr...with 10 draft picks last yr, maybe they were due for a lean yield this yr, but as long as they can plug TE, maybe they use the AB money that drops off next yr and go on the FA market to replace Dupree or get lucky later in the draft.

Will they get a compensatory pick next year for the loss of Bell, or did that happen this year?

Next year is the pick for that.

2nd...PIT
3rd...Bell comp pick
4th...MIA pick
4th...PIT
6th...PIT
