Dreessen is one of the more underrated players in the league. He’s a fantastic run blocker on two-tight end sets in Houston, but he’s also stepped into the lineup and done well as a receiver when Owen Daniels has been hurt over the last 2 seasons. He’s also a great end zone threat. I think he can be a #1 tight end and in Denver, he’ll compliment Jacob Tamme, more of an h-back, well. This is a good value, 3 years 8.5 million, but I question adding Dreessen over Dallas Clark, who Peyton Manning is more familiar with. Maybe Manning knows something about Clark that we don’t know.
