when you're as bad as the 9ers are(both on the field&administratively) and no FA is gonna sign a fair deal anyways you might as well spend the money on young players who show promise..
dude still has a ways to go but at least his hands are getting somewhat better,he has good speed for a TE,and they say he's blocking better,so..
he's been the biggest home run threat the 9ers have,sad as fidduck,but true..
