And had to play with ****ing Alex Smith.

No Offense but Kittle has had shit at the QB position

Maybe. He's stayed remarkably healthy but he also started out a bit older than a few of the greats. If he has Witten longevity it could happen.

As a receiver, he's a total stud. My only complaint there, is he doesn't dominate in the red zone, but that could be a scheme thing, or that defenses are selling out on him.

Solid blocker, but not the best of the best.

Regardless, he's perfect for this offense.

Travis Kelce

A Man of Great Taste.

No one better.

I love the kid.

Wish he was on the Chiefs.

If I were his agent, I think the realistic approach would be to give him an average of the top WR (Julio Jones, $22M per year), top OT (Laremy Tunsil, $22M per), and top TE (Austin Hooper, $10.5M per) salaries. That equates to around $18M per year. Trying to shoot for top WR pay for him is too much of a stretch.

The market for TE's is going up though, unlike RB's that are staying stale if not lowering, because the TE has become the more Kittle-esque and is more needed in today's NFL to have a great TE rather than a great RB. Kittle isn't one of the best receivers, but you can argue his blocking is second to none.

Kittle is an excellent player but Kelce could truly be the best receiving TE ever. Kelce was tailor made for this league while Kittle was made more for 10 years ago.

I do t think there has ever been a TE that was as athletic and gifted running routes as Kelce

The Kelce “wiggle” at the top of his routes is the NFL version of Hakeem’s Dream Shake.

Demonpenz 05-30-2020 07:28 PM

Oh my favorite lines from the SB LOSS - "I will be back" ROFLROFLROFL

Kittle needs to take less so Kelce can take less

big nasty kcnut 05-30-2020 10:04 PM

Hell no.

Kittle is where Kelce was when Gronk was at his peak. Kittle is a star that is definitely rising and in a couple of years will be the best TE assuming he does not get hurt and Shanarat quits crapping the bed.

I love Kelce, and his expanded route tree trumps Kittle's blocking by a mile.

But, Tony Gonzalez is currently number 3 on the All-Time Receptions list. Not for Tight Ends, but for every position. In the history of the NFL.

He was number 2 behind Jerry Rice, and now he is number 3 behind Rice and Larry Fitzgerald. Even though TG did play in Dick Vermeil's offense, he also played in Marty's offense too. Teams were not nearly as pass happy as they are now, and he still made it as high as number 2 All-Time.

If Kelce puts up a few more 1000 yard seasons, and racks up a couple more all-pro awards and another ring or two, he could be the best ever. But, it's not a done deal like so many seem to think.

THIS. Really happy with our TE. Kelce is really good and also a cool dude. But..... Kittle is too. He deserves to be on a better team and coach.
