Of course Gates is still highly capable in the red zone and making big catches on 3rd downs. But LG should bring big play ability back to the TE position along with adding to team speed. Blocking should at a minimum be a push as Gates never was the best blocker on the block. LG just needs to step up and Rivers will be forced to give the guy a fair shot that I don't think would happen with his security blanket Gates around.
It is good to shake things up as we weren't a contender with Gates so maybe LG will surprise people and Gates coming back will be a bonus which is all he should be at this point in his career.

I'm of the opinion that if everyone in the NFL who was actually violating the PED policies were caught, there wouldn't be much of an NFL left, anymore.
Non-Garanteed contracts for jobs that are worth millions of dollars, and you have a very limited (short) career?
Please.
The amount of PED's being taken has got to be staggering. I'm not saying it's as dirty as cycling was in the Lance Armstrong era, but I would venture a guess that it's closer to that than it is to being "clean".
I'm becoming less of an NFL fan every day. I still like football, and I suppose I always will, but it no longer is such a big deal. It's just a game after all."...of course that's just my opinion, I could be wrong."
