TE Ferguson out rest of spring

With an already thin TE room, it got even thinner as Terrance Ferguson will be out the rest of spring due to injury. I imagine they'll be hitting the transfer portal hard to address the position as they're down to only Herbert and Saddiq for scholarship TEs.

Of all our transfers, Moliki is the one that didn’t make sense to me. One injury and he’s getting the most TE receptions in the PAC-13

That is the one the coaches worked very hard to keep. According to insiders he was the one NO ONE on the coaching staff wanted to transfer.

Doesn’t Stein use TEs in passing less than we’re used to? (Maybe I imagined that from somewhere)

While this is true based on what he ran at UTSA, I think there is always that level of matching his scheme with things that Lanning wants in addition to the talent you've got on your team.

The thing about Moliki is that he was a classic Y-TE on the line, whereas Ferguson and the younger TEs are more of the F-TE that can be incorporated out wide or in the backfield as an H/H-TE. (I don't like H-Back because etymology would dictate that means Half-Back blah blah blah)

If Ferguson can improve his blocking, he's got the potential to be an NFL TE.

If Musgrave can be a late 1 early 2nd round pick, so can Ferg.
