The FO Signed Willson to a 1 Year deal - after letting him walk to FA.
Is Willson doing more this year then last year when they let him walk?
Willson is only here next season if Graham is gone because they will need bodies, or if he fails to find any interest on the market and the team wants him back.
Willson does nothing that any average TE in the NFL could not do.
He is for that reason a quality back up on this team, and a starter maybe on 16 teams in the league.
I would argue that he runs considerably faster than the average TE does.
Exactly.
6'5" 250 4.46 speed and 38" vertical with nice catch radius is what got him here to begin with.
He is NOT your average TE in athleticism.
And yet with all that athleticism, he remains an average TE in the NFL.
You are what your production says you are, and his production says hes average.
2016 50 TE's had more Rec
2015 44 TE's had more Rec - Added Jimmy
2014 39 TE's had more Rec
2013 44 TE's had more Rec

Hes an Average TE along with the rest of the Average Journeyman TE's.
Sure Ill give you he has higher end speed.
When the only counter is to say he can run faster then the league average TE, you know he has a replaceable and average skill set overall.
