Obviously, both tiedowns and receivers catch the ball. But I think that’s where their similarities ends. Football at the D1 level is a lot of instinct and reaction. Learning a new position At that level takes time.

One of the biggest surprises of the year was how unproductive Keanu Hill was.

He got lit up multiple times. No sure if he ended up gun shy or what, but it was

Jake nearly got him killed a couple games ago.

No touching

I'm sure grateful to him for recovering that fumble on Saturday. Without him

TE in general were MIA this year.

Might be more Arods lack of using TE

Jake’s throwing motion

I think it was more the lack of O production. Lots of short drives = fewer plays

TEs have disappeared since Grimes left.

Keanu also had a lot of drops and was lazy in his blocking

They were targeted on 15% of throws this year

Half the time they tried to get him the ball there was some sort of execution

Biggest surprise isn't just Keanu, it is the entire TE room. Worst performing unit on the entire team.

A fair amount of dropped balls will do that amidst a lot of weapons to throw to

This isn’t on Hill. It’s on the QB who can’t read the D and an OC who designs hi

ARod dropped all the passes thrown to Hill? ARod was the one who whiffed on countless blocks this year?

*Jake graded well PFF when no rush. Really bad when blitzed.

Jake’s worst PFF game is almost double the average TE grade, TE’s were awful

Dec 3, 8:33am

Hope Jake figures out how to better perform when blitzed. Agree TE underperform

Haha you’re acting like Hill was thrown to the majority of the time. The TE

Exactly, because they stunk. You don't highlight the TEs when they stink. You go to a much more proven and better WRs.

Ya just like Holker not getting the ball enough for him to transfer.

Three years ago has no bearing on this year.

Before Holker transferred tight ends had caught

BYU is able to recruit the TE position so it should be featured more. Ta'Ase

It is a mystery to me why Jake doesn't find his TE more often when pressure is coming. Often the easiest to find

He had like 10 targets on the entire year. We don't use our tight ends at all.

I want the ball going to Lassiter, Marion, Roberts, jojo, and parker anyway.

Challenge with a TE like Hill who doesn’t block is that there very little fake a block and pop out for a pass
