I believe he missed fall camp w an injury, has only recently been working back

Injured pec muscle has slowed him down

Same 2 of them that just move on their own when I walk.

My understanding is, and I won’t say how I know, that he lacks a serious

It's not like Arod targets TE anyway.

Roderick isn't even a QB

You are correct.

A TE was second on the team in targets last year

He’s had bad luck with injuries

Happily wrong about win total.

Well we can’t blame him for transferring from BYU when you look at how

My take as well.

Only team that uses less TE than Broncos is BYU.

We have an unusually high number of 4 star guys who don’t work out

Charles Darwin

We've had a number of 4 star TE recruits in the past and none played like it.

I don’t know. Highest rated guy I played with in HS was a TE and he ended up with the best/longest career by far.

Austin Holt, Richard Wilson are two that come to mind

Ah You at least gave us a good season

He can’t beat out Tava or Ethan Erickson, two unranked players

deliciousmocha

BYU loses at least 3 TEs next year, if Bowers sticks around, Im sure he will

Das_Countach

Oct 7, 10:10pm

It just doesn’t work out for every kid. I personally know a highly rated kid

Atama

Sadly if I were a TE with NFL hopes I’m not sure I’d choose BYU. I’ve been

Cheap Seats

I agree. It’s Arod hating the middle of the field to minimize ints

Das_Countach

Oct 7, 10:48pm

With our current QB I’m not really sure how to throw over the middle

puntersarepeople

Oct 7, 11:07pm

I don’t think he’s even that tall.

babybroker

Oct 8, 12:03am

Saw him in person and he’s between 6’1 and 6’2

He had to have lifts in his shoes 🙂

babybroker

Oct 8, 8:09am

Agreed on the throwing over the middle

...agree to an extent- however, Kyler Murray, Russell Wilson etc are able

Das_Countach

Bowers maybe. Swanson seems like a BYU guy through and through

arizonacougarfan

Oct 8, 8:22am

Where are these TEs with the monstrous stats you dream of? There are only a few

dYrtbYkerYder

Yeah, Todd Christensen's BYU TE stats are microscopic. Yet NFL stats are fine.

Because he wasnt a TE at BYU
