Judd ZulgadHOST
I m- I mean, if we're talking about tight ends who can catch passes, obviously T.J. Hockenson.
Judd ZulgadHOST
Gavin Bartholomew is probably second.
Judd ZulgadHOST
Jureck's probably a better blocker.
Judd ZulgadHOST
So I, I think there's a chance that he's going to get a chance to at least step into a part of what the Oliver role was.
Matthew CollerHOST
That's, you know, that's really funny, but it is important if he can get back and then they'll have an extra tight end.
Matthew CollerHOST
I was actually really impressed with Gavin Bartholomew.
Matthew CollerHOST
I loved the way he played in that game.
Matthew CollerHOST
He was very, very physical.
Matthew CollerHOST
I didn't know that about Gavin Bartholomew.
Matthew CollerHOST
Uh, honestly, when, um, he, uh, was drafted I kind of looked at him as all right well he's going to be sort of a receiving tight end he'll probably be kind of a slender guy you know that's how he looked on tape he didn't look that big and oh he's got some athleticism like that's nice but he's come back from that back injury and he just looks big I mean he has played extremely physical no hesitation whatsoever really from the beginning of training camp so uh him and Urosic might be able to help block, you know, well, if they decide to go with three tight end sets or just, I think Bartholomew probably stays in that position after what he did last week.
Matthew CollerHOST
I think he kind of earned it.
Matthew CollerHOST
But it is important if he can get back and then they'll have an extra tight end.
Matthew CollerHOST
I was actually really impressed with Gavin Bartholomew.
Matthew CollerHOST
I loved the way he played in that game.
Matthew CollerHOST
He was very, very physical.
Matthew CollerHOST
I didn't know that about Gavin Bartholomew.
Matthew CollerHOST
Uh, honestly, when, um, [smacks lips] he, like, was drafted, I kind of looked at him as, all right, well, he's gonna be sort of a, a receiving tight end.
Matthew CollerHOST
He'll probably be kind of a slender guy.
Nick EliasonHOST
Matter of fact, they won't be able to replace them, but it's just what do you have in terms of depth? This is where rosters get tested and the depth of team gets, the depth of teams gets tested.
Nick EliasonHOST
And I think, you know, guys like Gavin Bartholomew and Ben Urrutia coming back from IR this week.
Nick EliasonHOST
You know, these are guys that we're gonna need at the tight end spot.
Nick EliasonHOST
And then you start to look at the depth of the interior line.
Matthew CollerHOST
So the run snaps were good for him.
Matthew CollerHOST
And then actually Gavin Bartholomew.
Matthew CollerHOST
I like what I see from Gavin Bartholomew from a physical perspective.
Matthew CollerHOST
I think he had one catch that, They're not going to throw to him a million times in a game like this.
Matthew CollerHOST
Probably ever.
Matthew CollerHOST
He's pushing like 250 pounds.
Matthew CollerHOST
He's got strength and he was moving people and they ran the ball fairly effectively again, especially in the second half.
Matthew CollerHOST
But when they would bring in some of their bigger packages, they did run it pretty well with Gavin Bartholomew.
Sean KoernerGUEST
So Oliver's gonna be out at least four weeks.
Sean KoernerGUEST
They have, you know, Gavin Bartholomew out there just to block.
Sean KoernerGUEST
Like, he's not eating into Hockenson's receiving usage at all.
Sean KoernerGUEST
So yeah, Hockenson's a rare, you know, full-time tight end, um, where, yeah, I think he's gonna be at least a high-end tight end too, as long as Josh Oliver's out.
Matthew CollerHOST
So I think that was huge, but also is, it was, uh, demonstrating how Hockenson can still be a very, very effective tight end in the NFL, even if he doesn't have quite the same speed as he did a couple years ago.
Matthew CollerHOST
I thought that it was a good job on the run from Ryan Van Damar, Caleb Tiernan, so that the run snaps were good for him, and then, uh, actually Gavin Bartholomew.
Matthew CollerHOST
I like what I see from Gavin Bartholomew from a physical perspective.
Matthew CollerHOST
I think he had one catch.
Matthew CollerHOST
They're not gonna throw to him a million times in a game like this, probably ever.
Matthew CollerHOST
He's got strength, and he was moving people.
Matthew CollerHOST
And they ran the ball fairly effectively again, especially in the second half.
Matthew CollerHOST
But when they would bring in some of their bigger packages, they did run it pretty well, uh, with Gavin Bartholomew.
Sam EkstromHOST
Went into the season hurt.
Sam EkstromHOST
Gavin Bartholomew won that job and frankly probably earned that job.
Sam EkstromHOST
But let's not forget about Ben Yersek as well.
Sam EkstromHOST
Bartholomew earned that job as a pass-catching tight end three.
Sam EkstromHOST
Played 116 snaps last year, and was really quite good as a blocker.
Sam EkstromHOST
He doesn't have tremendous size.
Sam EkstromHOST
He's not Josh Oliver either, but he might have a little more skill in the blocking area than Gavin Bartholomew.
Sam EkstromHOST
That could be a real low-key, meaningful activation if he gets back from injury.
Leighton JamesGUEST
You, you have to get him involved.
Leighton JamesGUEST
You have to have Gavin Bartholomew get involved.
Leighton JamesGUEST
You're going to have to rely on your tight ends, especially if Jefferson's out.
Leighton JamesGUEST
My guess is Jefferson does everything in his power to come back, 'cause he'll have, uh, if, if he does feel a little sore after, he'll have the bye week to rest up.
34 MINS LATER
Ross BrendelHOST
Running Aces this upcoming Sunday, October 11th from 11:00 to 5:00 PM-ish with Vent Line after the game.
Ross BrendelHOST
Gentlemen, let's do some bold predictions.
Ross BrendelHOST
Last week, Leighton, you told us that Gavin Bartholomew, he will score a touchdown.
Ross BrendelHOST
You get the womp womp.
Luke BraunHOST
Right? So, you'd rather be late than early.
Luke BraunHOST
And so there was, there were a couple of times where you can actually see guys being really slow off the ball, like multiple and like the tight ends, like TJ Hawkinson and Gavin Bartholomew that are laid off the ball.
Luke BraunHOST
And they clearly just waited for everybody else to go.
Luke BraunHOST
And then I'm going to go, I won't get the false start, but I'll just kind of go on reflexes and, and essentially get out of my stance the same way the defense does, where they listen for the cadence and they watch the ball.
