They can find FAs on the street to play in summer camp and even pre-season games if necessary (like yesterdays signing), but I doubt that they will use a 4th round pick just to grab a guy to have him around for practice and exhibition games. 4th rounders are faily valuable Draft picks.

This makes about what, 7 or 8 TEs on the roster now? They can't all make it into TC. Some will be gone after the first OTA probably.

Daniel will not be able to practice until the 3rd preseason game. Not sure how far away Hill and Dreessen are from practicing, but they will most likely be limited in practice. You have to have at least 4 TE healthy to practice all the offense.
