Funny that you mentioned

"A strong breeze knocked Bryant off his feet."

Every time he makes a catch he goes down like a pillow. Big guy and gets tackled by a corner like he weighs 100 lbs.

I am like use a stiff arm. Plow through the guy.

Never been big on Bryant.

I like this signing for all the reasons mentioned; very athletic, actually can get YAC after the catch, doesn’t shy away from contact, etc. Heck, the Texans were using TE screens with him.


He should be a good 2nd TE. At the very least he’s an upgrade to Bryant. One other point to add, Njoku tends to miss some games for various injuries, the drop off from him to Bryant shouldn’t be as extreme when spot starting as TE1. If Akins plays like he has in the past, TE screens and routes should be available to use compared to having Bryant in there.
