The guy hasn't had much of a chance to develop. He's definitely a physical mismatch and plays to his workout numbers on the field. It's way too early to give up on this guy.

Difference between giving up on a guy and recognizing him for what he is which is a barely above average receiving TE who can't block. Cumby is the Shonn Greene of TE's only Greene had better #s and was more durable.

53 roster spots.


And I'd rather have Hayden Smith as our developmental TE right now.

4.7 RBs who lack instincts are a dime a dozen. Greene has no upside. He is what he is. Cumberland is still growing and has lots of upside.
