Shanahan ran the most 3 TE sets w 1 RB last year ( league average 2%, Kyle at 8%). We are gonna need 3 competent TEs......
Not a better all around TE
2015 , yes he was scored overall higher

We will probably run dominantly 2-WR personnel, given we have several semi-decent TEs/FBs while only one outside WR worth anything.

Lol oh okay there's like 100 graded TEs and he was 24th overall
Graded higher overall then guys like
Ebron, pitta, allen, fleener, Thomas, barnidge etc...and that's with horrible qbs, nothing at WR, and a predictable scheme. He's not a top ten talent but we could have had gronk on this team last yr and he wouldn't be killing it.
His main issue is health.

Expected more for TE in Chip Kelly's system.
Wouldn't be surprised if that was his career year

Really like this pick. He will be great in Shanahan's offense & will knock a TE or 2 off the roster

PFF claimed George Kittle was the best all around TE in the draft, oddly enough. See link below:
