Matty's right. It was a small 5 game sample when we got to see the '12' personnel package from Kyle last year, but Cooley and Davis play two different positions in it. And when Paul was playing TE late in the year, he was playing Davis' role, not doing anything that Cooley had done.

I mean, a depth chart is a depth chart and Cooley is versatile enough to play all the TE positions. But while I expect his role to be reduced, they know for certain that he's the best blocker they have at the TE position. And I think he'll be doing a lot of blocking this year.

If he's healthy, not only will he be here but he'll be an important part of the offense.


We have two great TEs...why break that up?
Because apparently Redskins fans hate having two good players in the same position.

I think I should credit you, pretty sure you broke this down before.

It's doubtful that the Redskins will keep four TEs. If the Redskins are impressed with Niles Paul, then what happens to Logan Paulsen? I can see the team keeping Paulsen only if Paul is playing both WR and TE.

How good is Paulsen's blocking? Could he also play H-back?

I think hes decent at blocking and catches well Not sure about HB. Id rather have Cooley, Davis, Paul and Darrel Young at HB. More importantly id take Paul and Young on special teams all day over Paulsen.

I think the only way Paulsen makes the team is if Cooley doesnt. I think the only way Cooley doenst make the team is if his knee is as bad or worse than last year.
